During an episode of 'Table for 4' on Channel A aired on May 26, Sam Hammington shared his thoughts about possibly relocating to Australia with his family. He mentioned that his upbringing was influenced by his parents, with his mother being a casting director in Australia. Sam revealed that his parents divorced when he was young and his mother was not strict, giving him a lot of freedom. Reflecting on his relationship with his father, Sam mentioned that they reconnected around his mother's 60th birthday, and his father's sudden passing in 2004 due to a cerebral hemorrhage left a lasting impact on him.

Sam expressed his emotional connection with his father during the funeral and shared a personal anecdote of placing a $100 bill in his father's suit pocket. He also mentioned his desire to pass on his father's name to his son to honor his memory. Concerned about his mother's deteriorating health and seeing her only once a year, Sam revealed that considering moving to Australia is driven by the fear of not being able to handle the loss if anything were to happen to her.
