Sam Wood faces domestic violence charges as he prepares to seek bail
Snezana Wood reportedly told a friend last year she wanted to leave her eight-year marriage to Sam Wood, the former Bachelor star and personal trainer.
Sam was arrested and charged with domestic violence offences after an alleged assault at the couple’s holiday home in Noosa, Queensland.
Prosecutors allege he pushed Snezana, grabbed her by the throat and struck her head against the floor; he has not been convicted of these allegations.
Snezana’s daughter Eve reportedly witnessed the incident and called emergency services.
A court refused Sam bail, and he has been in custody for three weeks.
He is due to make another bail application in the Supreme Court on November 4.
The case matters because the alleged violence is serious, and the court will decide whether he can be released while proceedings continue.
