Story summary
Sam Wood, a former Bachelor contestant and fitness influencer, remains in custody after being refused bail on domestic violence charges against his wife Snezana Wood. The incident occurred at their holiday accommodation in Noosa that costs $3,000 per night. Wood's lawyer claims he denies the allegations.
Signage for his Melbourne gym, The Woodshed, has been painted over to remove references to him, though the business continues to operate normally. Despite this, the gym's website still features photos of Wood as of Sunday morning and hasn't addressed the arrest on social media.
Furthermore, Wood was in the process of purchasing a luxury home estimated at more than $6 million in Brighton when he was arrested, causing disruptions to these deals and his other property-related plans. This sudden legal trouble is significantly impacting both his professional ventures and personal life.
