The couple met when he was just a teenager. However, they did not date romantically until some six years later.
They were married in November 2018 in Perth. The couple became parents in September 2021, welcoming daughter, Piper Rose Neale.
Lachie and his wife Julie lived in Perth, before making a move to Brisbane together when Neale switched from the Fremantle Dockers to the Lions.
When Lachie Neale won his first Brownlow in 2020, he revealed the huge personal sacrifice his wife had made to support him.

‘My wife Jules, she’s an amazing human being,’ Neale said in his acceptance speech. ‘Not many people probably know but she owned a salon in Perth before we decided to move to Brisbane.”
“She had to sell that to come over here and follow my dreams.” ‘She was doing very well for herself over there but she always puts me ahead of herself when she shouldn’t have to.
‘She’s the most selfless person I know and my biggest support, so thank you very much Jules, I love you.’
