Story summary

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." The couple's business, 28 by Sam Wood, has been sold for $71 million to genomics group myDNA, which is owned by Melbourne-based businessman Dennis Bastas, and the company has placed Wood on indefinite leave.
