Cousins didn't address the media, other than to say "it's good to be out'.
It’s the first time the 40-year-old has been seen since he was released from Hakea Prison last week on bail.
His lawyer Michael Tudori said he is "...well and motivated to comply with his bail conditions".

Cousins spent eight months behind bars.
He is free ahead of his trial in September, where he is facing stalking charges and allegedly breaching a violence restraining order against his ex-partner and the mother of his children Maylea Tinecheff.
