Sam, who lives on a farm in Bowral with her husband, millionaire equestrian businessman Richard Lavender, 63, had a nimble stride swapping out her usual expensive suits for a more brand-name look of denim jeans with a linen blazer.

Speaking to Kyle and Jackie O ahead of the Channel Seven show’s new season premiere next month, Sam insisted the cast are “genuinely” looking for love.
Last month, Samantha was announced as the show’s new host, taking over the role made famous by host Natalie Gruzlewski, who will continue to be a part of the series as a ‘co-host’.
“I think the guys get involved, genuinely, these guys are very nervous about being on camera,” Sam said on the new farmers’ Kyle and Jackie O Show.
‘I think their hearts are in the right places. And they are very good, we introduce them to quite a few ladies, unlike other shows, the girls go online and choose which guy they want to meet.’

Samantha has ditched her bright blonde locks for a darker shade, presumably thanks to toner.
She added: “It comes from a more genuine place.”
Sam joined the dating show as a ‘guest host’ last year, but her lesser role has now been expanded while Natalie is ‘scaling back’ her duties.

Seven confirmed the shakeup, revealing that Armytage will take on the role made famous by Natalie Gruzlewski (pictured), who will continue to be a part of the series as a ‘co-host’.
Earlier this month, New Idea claimed the shakeup ruffled Natalie’s feathers after being the face of the show for years.
No one saw this coming, least of all Nat. She didn’t know the full extent of the role changes until recently, it was a bolt from the blue! a source told the publication.
A new trailer shows Sam walking through a pasture while saying “all farmers will find love this year.” Natalie does not appear in the promo.
