 ‘Happy birthday @sam_armytage Next time we are drunk in a paddock will be on your big day,’ she captioned the post.

While Edwina didn’t specify exactly where Sam plans on tying the knot, it is likely that she was referring to one of the rural properties owned by Sam and Richard in the Southern Highlands of NSW. 

Samantha recently sold her multi-million dollar Bondi pad and it’s assumed that she will be residing with fiancé Richard at his Berrima estate.
