Mr Connor, known by his nickname "Twig", had an emotional reunion with his ex-wife at Denpasar police station for about 15 minutes on Monday.
"Anthony was crying, Sara was crying, they were both sad, even the lawyers were sad," said a lawyer for Ms Connor, Erwin Siregar.
Ms Connor and her British DJ boyfriend David Taylor have been named suspects in the death of Balinese police officer Wayan Sudarsa, a father of two who on August 17 was found dead on Kuta beach with 42 wounds.
Another member of Ms Connor's legal team, Robert Khuana, said his client was worried about her two sons.
"I know from Anthony that the media is full in the front of their house (which means) the kids cannot go to their school," Mr Khuana said.
"Hopefully after this Anthony will give a statement to the media please help them with the situation in their house. It's important not to influence the kids' school."
Mr Khuana said Ms Connor insisted she had no involvement in the murder, despite police finding blood on her body.
"We still believe Sara was only separating ... David and the victim," he said.
Mr Taylor has admitted bashing the police officer of 35 years with binoculars, a sharp object, a mobile phone and a bottle.
According to police, Mr Taylor tried to frisk Mr Sudarsa, accusing him of stealing Ms Connor's handbag and being a fake cop. "A fight broke out that caused the death," said Denpasar police chief Hadi Purnomo.
The couple are expected to be tried for offences including unpremeditated murder and assault, which carry a maximum penalty of 15 years' jail.
Ms Connor is also facing a subsidiary aiding or abetting charge.
Mr Connor, who last week cancelled a press conference on the advice of the Australian government, visited the Australian consulate office in Bali before coming to the Denpasar police station.
A reconstruction of the events of August 17 will be held on Kuta beach at 8am on Wednesday.
Mr Taylor and Ms Connor will re-enact what happened with police playing the role of the victim and witnesses.
Mr Purnomo said the Australian Federal Police had informed them that neither Mr Taylor nor Ms Connor had criminal records in Australia.
"We continue coordinating with the AFP, who have requested to be informed in the development of the case," he said.
He said there were six more witnesses, including two from the homestay where the couple had stayed in Jimbaran, two who witnessed the couple burn something and two who found a wallet and cut-up identity cards belonging to Mr Sudarsa on the side of the road in Uluwatu.
Mr Purnomo said there were no other suspects.
Meanwhile, Mr Taylor underwent psychological testing at Denpasar police station on Monday to determine if he was mentally stable at the time of the alleged offence. Ms Connor had already undergone psychological testing on Friday.
