Sam Armytage
It’s a name that is often synonymous with rumours of feuds between co-stars, reports of diva behaviour on set or talk of drama.
In March this year, it was alleged that a makeup artist named Eliza Campagna was banned from set after an incident with the 37-year-old Sunrise co-host that was leaked to the press as a “physical altercation”.
And before this, former Sunrise producer Adam Boland’s tell-all book claimed Sam and former co-host Chris Bath were involved in a bitter feud that began because Sam was mad that Chris was dressed in “better outfits”.
In fact, if you Google her name, news stories of rivalry and feuds with other Australian journalists dominate the search.
But Sam doesn’t really care.
Sam has spoken to News.com.au about the claims and called bullshit on all the rumours.
“I seem to be a big target,” she said.
“Most of [what’s said] isn’t true, might I point out. If people don’t like me, that’s fine. If some people want to tie themselves in knots [gossiping] like that, go for it.”
Talking about the possibility that these rumours are coming from her own network, Seven, she said it’s just like any workplace with rumours and gossiping.
“But in this world, it’s magnified and then of course it becomes gossip and then it turns into a story about a feud, and suddenly it’s run off on its own,” she said.

Sam is know as being a diva at work , but aybe she is entitled to a bit if that behaviour . She has worked hard for her spot on the couch. What I don't particular like is her chasing AFL footy stars who have partners. There is no sisterhood with Sam .
I have an issue with this. She wrote her self help book telling the reader that you have to wear make up (and not cheap brands), wear brand clothes and only eat organic.
