In 2016, Mercedes Corby returned to the Gold Coast after living in Bali for over a decade, motivated by a desire to support her sister Schapelle following her release from prison in 2014. Schapelle had been incarcerated for nine years for drug smuggling, maintaining her innocence throughout. The sisters have since enjoyed traveling together, including a recent trip to Europe where they explored various cities and attractions, such as Tokyo and the tranquil Shibu Onsen in Japan. Mercedes, a mother of three, has a passion for travel and adventure, often sharing her experiences on social media. She has documented her travels, including a cruise around Fiji with her sons and a visit to New Zealand, showcasing her love for beautiful landscapes and outdoor activities. Despite leaving Bali behind, she returned for a visit in 2019, enjoying paddleboarding with her children. After Schapelle's release, the Corby sisters have maintained a relatively low profile, with Mercedes briefly opening a tapas restaurant that closed the following year. She has since transitioned into a career as a clockmaker and influencer, balancing her professional life with her family responsibilities. Mercedes shares her three children, Wayan Jr., Nyoman, and Nyeleigh, with her former husband Wayan Widiartha. Following their separation in 2014, she has reportedly started dating someone new, indicating a new chapter in her life as she continues to support her sister and embrace her own passions.
