GUEST SARAH HAD NO INKLING OF THE ROMANTIC SURPRISE TO COME

Radio gaga! SAM WOWS HIS LONGTIME LOVE

It was never going to be a run-of-the-mill proposal. When Coast FM Breakfast co-host Sam Wallace decided to pop the question to his partner of nine years, Sarah Bowman, he naturally wanted co-stars Toni Street and Jase Reeves and his listeners to be in on the act.

Earlier this month, the 39-year-old proposed on-air in an elaborate ruse where Sarah thought she was simply attending the marriage vow renewal ceremony of Toni and Jase with their respective spouses.

But just before the exchange took place on Auckland’s Narrow Neck Beach, guests were asked if anyone had any objections and Sam stepped forward and revealed the real reason they were there.

An overwhelmed Sarah, who is pregnant with twins, said yes to a chorus of claps and cheers.

The more observant would have noticed how nervous Sam was beforehand. He spent most of his time pacing up and down the beach.

“Relieved” is how he felt afterwards, he tells the Weekly. “This proposal has been a long time coming. It has always been on my mind, but in the last two years since we’ve had Brando, it became imperative. Sarah was so keen to get married and as I started planning it, it became really important to me as well.”

It took the former Breakfast TV weatherman a while to settle on how he would pop the question but, in the end, he knew it could only be live on air. “The fact I’m on radio, that’s my superpower,” he explains.
