Sam Burgess was a far cry from his days in the NRL when he debuted a shocking new look on Monday.
The former South Sydney Rabbitohs star, 35, looked every inch a doting dad as he appeared in his fiancée Lucy Graham’s latest Instagram post.
In a series of photos shared to the hairdresser’s social media, Sam cradled the couple’s eight-month-old daughter, Robbie, as he showed off silver hair and straighter teeth after wearing braces for several months.
Lucy celebrated her fiancé’s latest achievement as the Warrington Wolves headed to Wembley Stadium for the Challenge Cup final against the Wigan Warriors.
It is a significant milestone for Sam, who is head coach of the England team, as it is his first season in charge.

The former South Sydney Rabbitohs star, 35, looked every bit the doting dad as he cradled his eight-month-old daughter Robbie, showing off silver hair and straighter teeth.
‘We’re going to Wembley!!! I’m so proud of you and the boys,” Lucy captioned her post.
Sam and Lucy welcomed daughter Robbie in September 2023 after announcing the exciting news of the baby’s arrival on Channel Seven’s Sunrise.
The sports star added that both Lucy and their newborn daughter are “doing really well.”
“She’s wonderful and beautiful, just like her mother,” Sam said.
The couple revealed they were expecting their first child together in March last year.
Sam proposed to Lucy in June 2023, just nine months after they made their relationship public.
Lucy was a member of the British girl group The Ultra Girls, which was featured extensively on The X Factor UK in 2009.
Born in West Yorkshire, England, Sam has known Lucy for about twenty years.
He was previously married to Phoebe Burgess, with whom he shares two children: daughter Poppy, six, and son Billy, four.
The rugby coach has now started his new life in Great Britain, but regularly returns to Australia. Late last year, he and Lucy spent time in Sydney’s eastern suburbs with their newborn.
Sam previously revealed he was extremely nervous when he proposed to the hairdresser from Leeds.

Keeping the details private, he said: “I was actually very nervous, I dropped the ball, it was a great day, a great time away, we’re both very happy.”
Lucy seemed extremely happy with her engagement ring and shared several photos of it on Instagram.
