Sam Armytage bid her final farewell to Sunrise earlier this week and her co-workers were practically inconsolable as they said goodbye to their friend.

Among the pack was fellow Channel Seven star Larry Emdur, who bid adieu to his friend in a rather unconventional way.

The tributes for Sam Armytage and her career flooded our news feed yesterday, including one from The Morning Show host Larry Emdur. 

After sharing a throwback clip of himself and Sam Armytage hosting the show together, Larry, 56, clearly decided that one tribute post was not enough and headed back to his Instagram later last night for take two. 

The host of The Morning Show and soon The Chase, shared an old clip of himself and Sam in bed together during a morning segment.

In the footage, a shirtless Larry is lying in a bed next to a fully clothed Sam Armytage.

Trying to maintain her composure, Sam looks to camera and says, “So…. I’m not looking at you.”

Larry then replies “Hang on, I feel uncomfortable, wait a sec” before pulling a pair of pants and underwear out from under the covers. 

“Oh god, Larry!” a scandalised Sam exclaims. “Thank goodness I’ve got stockings on today.”

To accompany the post, Larry provided some much needed context as to what on earth was going on in that chaotic footage.

This is so so so raunchy I had to wait til after dark to post it. Little bit of context, it was for an interview about bedroom habits.” the presenter wrote.

But even he was aware of how inappropriate these past actions were, writing “I agree with you that doesn’t make this right, nothing makes it right 😁😁”

He went on to further bid a final farewell to his former co-worker, writing, “Always the best fun working with you @sam_armytage Good luck in all your future endeavours hopefully they’re classier than this xx❤️❤️ #missya #IfNotNowWhen.”

Sam announced she was leaving Sunrise earlier this week.

In a heartfelt statement to viewers, the presenter wrote “The time has come for the sun to set on my time at Sunrise. I have always been brave and fearless in my career and this decision is no different.

“I want to take a break and find some peace and calm. I go out of this job at a time of my own choosing and on top of the ratings, which not many people on television can say they do.”

She ended her statement: “I cannot thank you all enough for having me in your lounge rooms all these years.
