‘I'VE FINALLY FOUND THE ONE!'

THE ONE!’ There are plenty of sunny days ahead for Sunrise weatherman Sam and his girlfriend Rebecca

- Wade Sellers

For most of us the idea of waltzing around a ballroom floor in front of a panel of esteemed dancers and hundreds of thousands of viewers would be a nightmare.

But Sunrise weatherman and Dancing With The Stars wildcard Sam Mac is waltzing straight into the challenge.

“Being a part of something as enormous as DWTS is so exciting to me, he tells Woman's Day.

It's old-school showbiz. It's a lot of sequins, offensive spray tans - it's Daryl Somers! And as a bit of a TV nerd, it's just amazing to be a part of that universe.”

And just as easily as the 39-year-old has flung himself into the new realm of skin tight costumes and the cha-cha-cha, he's also seamlessly slipped into the next phase with his girlfriend, Rebecca James.
