    It follows a remarkable backdown from the reality TV star after initially maintaining she would not be getting the jab. 

    The saga began when Sam shared a video to Instagram last month in which she tearfully admitted she was unvaccinated. 

    The former reality star had deactivated her Instagram account on October 9, shortly after revealing in the emotional video that her mental health had suffered as a result of other people ‘judging’ her over her lack of jab.

    The actress, who has played Jasmine Delaney on Home and Away since 2017, called for less judgement towards unvaccinated Australians.

    She said: ‘I was really hesitant about doing a video or even speaking up about this sort of thing, but I feel like it’s getting to a point now in the world where there’s a lot of segregation.’ 

    Her video caused a great deal of controversy, mainly because of her use of the word ‘segregation’ when referring to the way society ‘judges’ unvaccinated people.
