He was the man of the moment when he picked up a Gold Logie for his role in Molly last week. But beneath Samuel Johnson’s ear-to-ear smile as he took to the stage to accept his award was the heartache of his sister Connie’s decision to cease all treatment after a seven-year battle with aggressive breast cancer.

Now, Sam has admitted the incredibly close pair have started to plan what the future will hold for Connie’s two children, Willoughby, 10, and nine-year old Hamilton.

“Connie’s got some pretty important jobs for me when it comes to her kids once she’s gone. I’ve got to make sure I get everything right,” Sam says.
