The Bachelor’s Sam Wood looks almost unrecognisable with long grey hair

The Bachelor’s Sam Wood looks almost unrecognisable after weeks of lockdown in Melbourne as he sports long grey hair

Like many people stuck in Melbourne during stage-four lockdown, Sam Wood has been sporting a very relaxed look in recent weeks.

And fans would be forgiven for not recognising the former Bachelor, 40, when he briefly appeared on his step-daughter Eve’s Instagram Story on Sunday afternoon.

The personal trainer, whose Adonis-like physique and slicked-back hair sent hearts aflutter on The Bachelor in 2015, displayed long, grey-streaked hair as he hunched over his phone on the couch.

Is that you, Sam? Fans would be forgiven for not recognising the former Bachelor, 40, when he briefly appeared on his step-daughter Eve's Instagram Story on Sunday afternoon

Sam’s shaggy ‘do was complemented by a rugged beard and moustache. 

Sam is currently self-isolating with his wife, Snezana Markoski, 39, and their three children, Charlie, one, Willow, two, and 14-year-old Eve – Snezana’s daughter from a previous relationship.

Last month, the fitness expert spoke to FEMAIL about how people who have gained weight in self-isolation can easily achieve their pre-lockdown figure.

‘Moving your body in some way every day is most important,’ Sam explained. 

‘It doesn’t matter how and when – but it is good to mix it up, rather than doing the same workout each day,’ he added.  

As for dietary changes, Sam recommended starting the day with a ‘kickstarter smoothie’ comprising almond milk, a coffee shot, banana, rolled oats, chia seeds and vanilla protein powder.

For lunch, he recommended chicken caesar salad with sourdough bread, and for dinner, pan-fried salmon with sweetcorn and avocado salsa. 

Lastly, Sam said he likes to take supplements, explaining: ‘At the moment, for me it’s all about good quality protein powder after a workout or in my morning smoothie.

‘With immunity being top of mind at this time of year, I also take vitamin C every morning as a helping hand.’
