Trolls accuse me of ‘pimping’ my pre-teen daughter on social media… but we have a £10m business to run

SHE IS a millionaire child who managed to retire at the age of 11 and had her eye on a Range Rover to add to her luxury car collection.

Meet 12-year-old Pixie Curtis, who found fame in preschool through multiple businesses and a huge Instagram presence — all managed by her mother, PR guru Roxy Jacenko.

Pixie – whose mother is the founder of PR firm Sweaty Betty – has already closed several brand deals and is promoting phone accessories to her 181,000 Instagram followers.

But while the pre-teen – who has now returned to work – can enjoy the lavish lifestyle, the 44-year-old Australian mother has faced a huge backlash for “pimping” her daughter.

At one point, Roxy came across indecent, digitally altered images of the four-year-old circulating online – a vile act she has since called “paedophilia”.

Speaking to Fairfax Media, the horrified mother described the images as “cruel” and “scary”.

“It’s sick, it’s total pedophilia.”

The mother-of-two claimed three people, two of them working for major Australian fashion houses, were behind the “obscene” photoshop where the little girl’s head was superimposed to look like she was in a prostitute’s window in Amsterdam without having “no clothes” and also her reading a book with two men in front having sex.

That was really bad – I never want to subject her to that

Opening up about the incident and criticism of the Podcast without filterthe parent company – whose estimated net worth is considered higher incredible £10 million – explained that there was always judgment, even when it came to his work ethic.

“It wasn’t about sexual gratification — it was basically saying you’re pimping her out,” said Roxy, whose daughter was the face of a successful hair bow business on Instagram.

”That was really bad – I never want to subject her to that.

“But also remember: she has a business. Your hair tie business is big business right now.

”When you have your own business, it is not a choice [to stop],” said Roxy, who hosted a seminar for 700 people even with an IV still stuck in her arm.

”Who am I going to call and say, ‘Oh, sorry, get someone to cover for me’?

“There is no one,” continued the multimillionaire The episode.

“While it would be an absolute joy to take three months off and spend time with the kids, it’s not an option.

“You have to remember: I am the breadwinner of the family,” said the mother of two, whose son, Hunter, is now nine.

In fact, Roxy – one of the runners-up on season three of The Celebrity Apprentice Australia – is so dedicated to her work that she barely took maternity leave and returned to answering emails soon after having her two children.

Even when her husband, Oliver Curtis, was being convicted of using privileged informationRoxy even held a special public relations and social media seminar.

Among critics of the family – who have now moved to Singapore – there tends to be the perception that Oliver “is really rich and makes a lot of money”.

“It’s infuriating,” Roxy responded to the false allegations, adding that she has been working since she was 14 when she was “a McDonald’s drive-thru girl.”

”Kodak, I was a florist for seven years – I always worked.

”You get up, you pull yourself together. Even though I had an IV in my arm – 700 people paid to come to the seminar.

”They flew in from New Zealand, from Fiji, from Melbourne, from Adelaide, from Tasmania – I’m not going to make a note and say ‘Sorry everyone, you’ve just gone out of your way for the morning, I’m not feeling very well. ‘.

”No, it’s not an option – it just isn’t.”

Roxy, who married her partner in 2012, also recalled that although people assume she comes from a wealthy family, that wasn’t necessarily the case.

”My parents gave me something – and that was $4,000 [£3,150] Volvo that was 17 years old.”

It’s not just her two children she needs to look after – the advertising worker added that there are also employees she needs to pay salaries to, as well as clients who expect results.

”They come to me because they know I work on my account, so it’s my problem.”

The luxurious lifestyle is also reflected on Roxy’s Instagram, where she regularly posts photos of her chic beach vacations, designer gear and all things beauty – and she does it with pride.

The mother of two, who was ”terrible at school”, said as long as you ”try hard, you are dedicated and if you work hard […]you can have whatever you want”.

“I’m the perfect example of that,” Roxy said, adding that at the time she started her public relations firm, she “had no idea” what she was doing.

“These materialistic things – they are not the be all and end all.

“But for me, I did it – and I did it even though I was a stupid kid at school,” said the stylish mom who admitted she likes “cool things.”

Just like her mother, Pixie also has her own business, selling adorable hair bows, as well as a deal on Clark’s shoes.

However, Roxy said she would still support her daughter – ”whether she’s five or 55” – and that the pair had turned down some Instagram advert proposals.

Although the business tycoon currently has three well-paid sources of income, Roxy confessed that she is always on the lookout for “what’s next.”

”I like expensive things.”
