Sitting on a hay bale while wearing a gorgeous cream gown by Carla Zampatti as she joins WHO at a Sydney studio for an exclusive photoshoot, Samantha Armytage flashes her smile at the camera. Leaning slightly back to change her pose, the veteran Australian journalist loses her balance, breaking into a fit of giggles.
“Getting all done up like this used to be a daily occurrence,” the 47-year-old former Sunrise host tells WHO. "But now you're much more likely to find me wearing jeans out in the garden with my hands in the dirt so it's a real treat getting to dress up again."
Life has changed a lot for Armytage since she traded in her eight-year gig co-hosting the Channel 7 breakfast show for a more relaxed life in the country with her husband Richard Lavender. After several years of commuting back and forth between the city and country, Armytage took the plunge in 2021, making the move to join her horse breeding beau at his Bowral property.
So these days, if she happens to be up and about at 4 am, it's not thanks to her early morning wake-up call, but because it's foaling season.
"I'm the midwife and right there helping Richard deliver the new arrivals," she says.
"It's my favourite time on the farm, spring, and just so special. One day, I'll see those horses running around the race track and I'll think, 'That's my baby!' So I can't wait," she proudly explains.
