The DWTS winner is bubbling with happiness – thanks to Connie’s bestie!
She has been quietly supporting heartbroken Samuel Johnson, even before he lost his sister Connie, and last week the popular actor couldn’t help but share his joy after finding love with the “beautiful and gentle” woman who was by his and Connie’s side throughout her inspirational cancer battles.
“This koala makes everything with me. We have built some unusual dreams together over many years,” he captioned a photo of a brunette beauty, whose face was concealed but was later revealed to be Emma Rooke.
“Without her heart and brain, my dreams would remain just that. Thanks for building all the things with me little miss koala. I hope to build one more, as always, but as we know, it’s not up to us.”
Sam, 41, has been close to Emma for many years, but their bond appears to have become even stronger since Connie’s death at just 40 years of age on September 8, 2017.
