Reality TV star Sam Wood, who gained fame from The Bachelor in 2015, was charged with domestic violence offenses after police were called to a property in Noosa, Queensland, on Saturday evening. Police accused the 46-year-old Victorian man of assault occasioning bodily harm and strangulation; he was refused bail and is scheduled to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court. Wood's wife Snezana posted on Instagram that they were "working through this as a family."
