Samantha Armytage looked effortlessly chic as she made her way through Sydney Airport on Friday, showcasing her natural beauty in a casual yet stylish ensemble.

The Channel Nine star, 48, who is set to host the upcoming reality TV series The Golden Bachelor, sported a figure-hugging purple jumper, loose-fitting baggy jeans and crisp white Converse sneakers.

She added a pop of colour with a red coat draped over one arm while balancing a tote bag in the other.

The veteran presenter accessorised with gold earrings and bracelets and topped it off with aviator sunglasses perched through her jumper’s neckline.

Going makeup-free, youthful Samantha showcased her line-free visage as she navigated the busy terminal.

The low-key outing comes as Samantha prepares for the debut of The Golden Bachelor later this year.

In March, she gave fans a first glimpse at the set of season one of the upcoming series.

The television host, who will front the dating series, shared a selfie to Instagram Stories as she sat in the makeup chair ahead of filming.

The 48-year-old was busy getting glammed up for her role in front of the camera as production gets underway.

‘Getting ready to bring you something golden,’ Sam wrote in the caption.

Cameras have officially started rolling on the Channel Nine dating show for older, single romantics looking for a second shot at love.

Daily Mail can exclusively reveal Barry ‘Bear’ Myrden, a 50-something infrastructure engineer and passionate sailor from Sydney, has been handpicked as the leading man for the upcoming Australian adaptation.

Myrden, a father of three and a respected professional in the tech industry, currently works in Data Centre Management for Woolworths Group.

With decades of experience in his field, he has held senior roles at major companies like Macquarie Bank and the NSW Port Authority.

Local fans of the The Golden Bachelor have been calling for an Australian version since the U.S. version premiered last year to critical acclaim

But while his career has flourished, sources close to Daily Mail reveal that his personal journey has been marked by tragedy – Myrden is widowed.

Unlike The Bachelor which features young men and women, The Golden Bachelor is targeted at a more mature audience eager to watch how those who have already experienced great love and loss are chasing companionship in their next chapter.

‘Bear is not your usual reality TV type,’ an insider told Daily Mail.

‘He’s charming, intelligent and has really lived a full life. He’s been through love, loss and now he’s ready to open his heart again. Women are going to adore him.’

Local fans of the The Golden Bachelor have been calling for an Australian version since the U.S. version premiered in 2023 to critical acclaim.

Producers are keeping tight-lipped about the contestants vying for Myrden’s heart, but if the U.S. series is anything to go by the show promises to deliver a mix of heartwarming moments, deep connections and unexpected twists.
