'It is an opal from Coober Pedy. I'm not a diamond person. I love gemstones and crystals and I've always liked unique rings,' Sam said.
Sam told her listeners: 'It's a very important time of our lives, we just recently got engaged and to celebrate we thought, let's hit the road, let's go on a 14-day road trip.' Jordie, 26, went on to describe his romantic proposal: 'We were at Uluru and we had just had brekky and were about to head back down south.'Sambo had just been delivered her coffee, and so I said, 'Hey, when would you say yes to getting married?'
Sam chimed in: 'I said, "Pretty much anytime from now".' Jordie continued: 'And so I took that as, "I'm going to do it this afternoon".'
The Australian Survivor: Blood V Water star explained how he tried to rush his soon-to-be fiancée so they could get to Coober Pedy before sunset for the big moment. '[We got there and] I set up the camera in what I thought would be the perfect position, and Sambo's come around and said, "I know exactly what you're going to do here".' Sam said she 'had no clue' what was coming until she saw Jordie setting up a camera in the back of the car with 'tears in his eyes'.
'It was beautiful. He was really shaking and couldn't sit down,' she recalled. 'I don't remember a lot of it because I was so nervous. I was trying not to cry and just trying to speak. I remember saying something along the lines of, "Baby, we love jokes but this is not one of them. This is very serious",' Jordie added.
Sam previously sparked engagement rumours when a photo of her with a ring on her wedding finger at a hens' party circulated on social media. The happy news comes after Sam moved back to Melbourne to live with Jordie. 'We have taken the next step and it's nice,' she told the Herald Sun at the time. The former Bachelorette met Jordie through her younger brother, Alex Frost, who also starred on Australian Survivor. She debuted their relationship on Instagram back in April when the pair went on a trip down the New South Wales coast.
