<p>“It’s honestly so good to see you back on Australian soil... looking amazing too,” one supporter wrote.</p>
<p>“Looking absolutely gorgeous and beautiful in this photo Schapelle,” another commented.</p>
<p>“You look very pretty,” one added.</p>
<p>Others also described Corby’s look as “healthy”, “attractive” and “stunning”.</p>
<p>Corby also referenced her appearance change on<em> Studio 10</em> when the panel was looking at a footage from her conviction. “She doesn’t have a double chin,” Corby joked.</p>
<p>Speaking on <em>Studio 10</em>, Corby, who has maintained her innocence, said her conviction had affected her view on the ordeal.</p>
<p>“Who do I think did this? I don’t know. But part of my mental illness was being accused of this, and there was nothing I could say to save myself,” she said.</p>
<p>She also told the <em>Kyle and Jackie O Show</em> that she had been struggling after the death of her father in 2008.</p>
<p>“I was like a [triple] whammy. Dad died, my final appeal came through negative, and then my mum’s partner of a long time died as well. I just couldn’t cope,” she said.</p>
<p>The interviews marked Corby’s first public appearances since her deportation back to Australia in 2017.</p>
