Samantha Armytage shares loved-up selfie with husband Richard Lavender from her night out at Crown
Samantha Armytage crossed paths with her former Sunrise co-stars at a lavish Crown event in Sydney on Wednesday.
But the Farmer Wants a Wife host didn’t name her former colleagues when she shared photos with fans from the event on Thursday.
Sam, 46, shared a loved-up selfie of herself with her equestrian businessman Richard Lavender from the event, reprising the role of Julie Bishop.
Notably absent, however, were Sunrise stars David ‘Kochie’ Koch, Natalie Barr and Mark Beretta who also attended the posh event.
“Thank you Crown Sydney for a fun night out at Vivid,” Sam captioned her post.

On the evening, held at Crown’s luxury rooftop, CIRQ, Sam looked fabulous in a blue floral dress which she paired with a classy pair of beige knee-high boots.
The glittering event proved to be a who’s who of the Sydney media scene and attracted the likes of the Today show’s Karl Stefanovic and Sarah Abo, former Foreign Secretary Julie Bishop, TV presenter Erin Holland and model Francesca Hung.
David Koch, who recently announced his departure from Sunrise, also looked smart on the night in a navy check suit, paired with a white shirt and blue floral tie.

The TV veteran, 67, completed his look with a pair of black shoes, as he posed alongside co-host, Natalie Barr, 55, who looked radiant.
Earlier in the day, Kochie decided to clear the air about the much speculated feud with his former co-host Sam on The Kyle And Jackie O Show.
In a surprise revelation, Kochie dismissed the feud rumors saying, “No, we didn’t end on bad terms,” seemingly surprised by the question.
However, when host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson pressed him further about their communication following Sam’s departure from Sunrise, Kochie played coy.

Instead of answering directly, he pointed out that Sam had publicly expressed her desire to “get out of the media.”
“Don’t forget Sam said very openly that she wanted out of the media, that investigation [altogether],’ he said.
Kochie did say that Sam sent him a “really nice announcing note” that he was retiring as the show’s host.
“She sent me a really nice note, as did former co-host Mel [Doyle],’ said Kochi.
Rumors of a feud have haunted the pair ever since Sam left the top-rated Seven breakfast show, but have never been substantiated.
After Kochie quit, Sam shared a throwback photo on Instagram last month of herself and her former colleague alongside a sweet but simple message.
“I want to wish Kochie all the best for his future. And to the many well-deserved late risers ahead,” she wrote.
