Sunrise star reveals his mum texts him to let him know when he has marks on his clothes on-air

He’s the popular Sunrise weatherman who doesn’t mind putting his ego on the line for a laugh.

And Monday was no different when Sam Mac took to social media to reveal that his mother sent him a text to let him know that he had a white mark on his jacket.

‘Good morning Sam, you have some white marks on the right shoulder of your jacket! xx’ his mum Loretta wrote alongside a smiley face.

‘Oops I meant the top of your sleeve xx’.

But despite the early morning warning from his mum, it was too late.

Sam then shared footage of his morning weather segment, zooming into the white mark on his jacket arm.

It comes just weeks after Mac paid a sweet tribute to his co-star David ‘Kochie’ Koch after his shock resignation from the hit breakfast show.

Sam shared a screenshot to Instagram of the supportive words Kochie texted him in 2016, congratulating him on doing well on his first day on the job.

‘Mate, that was weather at its best. It was real, it connected with our heartland, it had charm,’ Kochie’s text began.

‘That street is the face of Australia and we don’t see it enough. Great morning, cheers, Kochie.’

He also shared a photo of his mum Loretta posing up a storm with Kochie at the 2019 Logies, where Sam was nominated for a Gold Logie.

Sam explained in the caption that receiving those supportive words from Kochie meant the world to him.

‘This was my first day! I didn’t even have the job yet. I had no idea if I fitted in or if I’d bombed spectacularly,’ he began.

‘The only piece of feedback I got that day was from the star of the show, Kochie! It may seem like a simple gesture, but in the cutthroat biz of TV, this level of support & kindness is surprisingly rare.

‘That message meant so much to me and tells you everything about Kochie’s character.’

Sam’s celebrity pals were quick to agree.

‘It is very rare… and speaks volumes’ wrote The Bachelor’s Brittany Hockley, while her co-star Matty ‘J’ Johnson posted an applause emoji.
