Will Phoebe Burgess FINALLY drop her surname after keeping it for years? Sam’s ex wife could return to her maiden name after he tied the knot with Lucy Graham
As an ardent follower of celebrity lives, I must say, Phoebe Burgess’s journey is nothing short of intriguing. Her decision to keep the surname Burgess despite her divorce and children’s last name being Hooke, speaks volumes about her commitment to her family unit. It’s like she’s saying, “Burgesses stick together!
After Sam Burgess married Lucy Graham last weekend, there’s a possibility that Phoebe Burgess may adopt her birth surname, Hooke, again.
Previously, the influencer, aged 35, had expressed her intention to maintain the last name of the former NRL star for the sake of having a common surname with their two kids, a 7-year-old daughter named Poppy and a 5-year-old son called Billy.
During an extensive chat with journalist Mia Freedman on the No Filter podcast in 2021, Phoebe was questioned about the possibility of altering her name.
She told the Mamamia founder that even though her passport and email still have the surname Hooke, she wants to have the same last name as her children.
She stated, “Every day, I drive my children to school, and there’s a large sign on my vehicle displaying our shared last name, Burgess. Since we are all called Burgesses, it feels right that I should share the same surname with them.
Phoebe viewed the choice as joining a household grouping (family) and it being her own personal decision, even though she has gone through a divorce.
She declared confidently, “I’m taking responsibility for a part of it. This is my journey, the path that led me here.
1) At that moment, those were choices I wholeheartedly made, and now I wear the resulting marks with a sense of accomplishment.
In 2015, Sam tied the knot with his former spouse, Phoebe. They parted ways towards the end of 2018, but by early 2019, they rekindled their romantic connection.
They split permanently on October 2 that year and later divorced.
Phoebe and her kids relocated to Bowral, as Sam found himself entangled in various legal issues after his marriage dissolved.
He was previously cleared on appeal of intimidating his former father-in-law, Mitch Hooke.
In October 2022, Sam was most recently seen with his kids, as he shared a photo on social media showing them comfortably seated on his lap at a restaurant.

He also shares a one-year-old daughter named Robbie with his new wife Lucy, 33.
Previously prominent player for the Rabbitohs, named Lucy, along with their child, relocated to the United Kingdom in October 2023, as they assumed the role of head coach at Warrington Wolves Rugby League Club.
The pair got married at Villa Aurelia, an elegant 17th-century Baroque mansion located atop Rome’s city walls, offering stunning panoramic vistas of the metropolis.
A wedding held amidst a scenic backdrop starts from $18,000, comfortably fitting up to 300 attendees within the venue.
On Sunday, Lucy’s appearance was divine, draped in a champagne-colored dress designed by Paula Nadal. The dress showcased a sculpted bodice that gracefully cascaded into a voluminous, ankle-length skirt.

The stunning woman accentuated her appearance with a lengthy veil, trailing it gracefully behind her and letting it brush the ground, as she held a delicate bunch of flowers.
For the ceremony, she styled her lightly frozen hair into two distinct sections, and softly accentuated her delicate facial features using a muted cosmetics collection.
Simultaneously, Sam seemed to embody the character of James Bond, dressed in a sleek black suit complete with a crisp white pocket square.
Last June, the ex-Rabbitohs player put forward a marriage proposal to Lucy, who he had been publicly dating for only nine months prior.
Previously, he had admitted that he was incredibly anxious when he proposed to the stylish hairstylist.
