Back together? Sam and Phoebe Burgess spark reconciliation rumours as they look close during Centennial Park outing with their children after marriage breakdown last year
Sam and Phoebe Burgess called time on their three-year marriage in January last year, less than a month after welcoming their second child.
But it appears that the pair may be making inroads toward a reunion, with the couple spotted looking close on a park date on Saturday.
In photos obtained by The Daily Telegraph, the NRL star and the former journalist looked relaxed and happy as they took their two children to Centennial Park.

Sam, 30, carried the pair’s daughter Poppy, two, in his arms while Phoebe, 29, wheeled their newborn, William, nine weeks, in a pram.
There was little sign anything was amiss as the pair enjoyed the warm summer day, strolling along and chatting.
However, a source tells The Daily Telegraph that the display of unity is ‘just for their children’ and there appears to be no reunion yet.

However, it comes after the footy star was spotted back at the family’s $3.8 million property in Sydney’s Maroubra in late January.
It was the first time he had been seen at the home in more than a month.
Phoebe has remained living at the palatial residence, and it is understood that her mother, Sarah Hooke, has temporarily moved in to lend a helping hand.
Sticking around? In recent days, Sam has been sending increasing time at his marital home and going for food and nappy runs
The Rabbitohs player dropped by briefly and looked downcast as he left the premises without a wedding ring on his finger.
However in recent days, he’s been sending increasing time at the home, The Daily Telegraph reports, and going for food and nappy runs.
Sam and Phoebe, 29, first met at an Avicii concert in Sydney back in January 2014 and by June 2015, they were engaged following a romantic holiday in Greece.
Over? The couple announced their separation in January, a month after their son was born
In January 2017, the couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Poppy Alice, now two.
Their second child, son William ‘Billy’ Mark, was born in early December 2018, and a month later, the couple announced their separation.
Soon after, reports surfaced describing Phoebe and Sam’s marriage split as ‘pretty messy’.
A close friend of the former couple told The Daily Telegraph that ‘things [had] been bad for a while’ before they parted ways.
