Former Home and Away star Sam Frost has opened up about her wedding plans, sharing details on Instagram after announcing her engagement to Jordie Hansen in July. The couple got engaged during a trip to Coober Pedy, where Hansen proposed with an opal ring.
Frost, who left her role as Jasmine Delaney after five years on the soap, said the couple have not yet started planning the wedding but expect it to be "pretty unique" to them, just like the ring. She wrote: "We know it'll be pretty lowkey. We just want to celebrate our love with an intimate group of our favourite people… most likely next year, in spring/summer."
The actress also revealed she does not plan to change her surname. She told her followers that she had mentioned this to Hansen on their first date, and that he replied: "That's fair enough, why should you change your name." She explained that her surname is part of her identity and family, adding: "Our future babies will be 'Hansen' though."
After sharing this, Frost responded to an Instagram user who asked how she would explain to her future children why their mother has a different surname. She replied: "I will tell them; it's because I didn't want to. And my surname is important to me. But they won't care because they have a mum who loves them unconditionally."
The couple first announced their engagement on their podcast, Jordie and Sam's Rural Roadtrip, after just five months of dating. Hansen admitted he was nervous during the proposal, saying: "I was trying not to cry and just trying to speak. I remember saying something along the lines of, 'Baby, we love jokes, but this is not one of them.'"
