Samantha Armytage Discusses Post-Divorce Dating and Addresses 'Sunrise' Feud Rumors
The television personality opens up about changes in her romantic preferences and clarifies relationships with former colleagues in a candid interview.
Samantha Armytage has revealed that her taste in men has "dramatically" changed since her separation from Richard Lavender. In a sit-down interview with the Daily Mail, Armytage, 50, spoke candidly about her current dating life and addressed long-standing rumors of feuds with her former colleagues from the television program "Sunrise."
Armytage, who is no longer in touch with Lavender, expressed that she is significantly happier living in the city again, though she has not ruled out relocating to the country for a partner. The television star also clarified her relationships with former "Sunrise" co-stars, including Natalie Barr, who replaced her on the program. Armytage and Barr starred on "Sunrise" together for nearly eight years, from June 2013 to March 2021.
Furthermore, Armytage put to rest speculation about a feud with fellow Nine personality Sylvia Jeffreys, who took over the "Today" show following Sarah Abo's departure. She also addressed competing podcasts with media personality Jess Rowe. The interview marks Armytage's first extensive conversation with the Daily Mail since her split from Lavender.
