As she joins WHO on a sunny Sydney winter morning, Samantha Jade knows she has a lot to be thankful for. The singer is just days away from jetting off to LA to record new music for an album, Love.Sick Volume 2, which she is planning to release later this year. And nine months after she tied the knot with husband Pat Handlin during an intimate ceremony in Italy, she’s well and truly loving life as a newlywed.
“We’d been living together for a while so you think that not that much will change,” Samantha exclusively tells us. “But it’s been really nice, being husband and wife. It feels like we are a real team.”
And as her thoughts now turn from wedding planning to planning the right time to start a family, there is a dark cloud that hangs over the 36-year-old singer and actress after she lost her mother, Jacqueline Gibbs, to cancer.
“It’s a horrible disease that takes loved ones and ruins families,” Samantha says. “Every time I go [to the doctor] for a check-up, it’s very scary. I assume the worst because I’ve seen it happen.”
Samantha lost her mum in mid-2014, just a few months after she was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer which had spread to her liver. They still do not know where it originated.
