Taken aback when she learnt that her late husband Robbo (Jake Ryan) had left the gym to her, Jasmine (Sam Frost) now faces an important decision.
Should the grieving widow – completely overwhelmed by the pain of losing the true love of her life – sell the gym in an attempt to begin to move forward with her own life? Or should she honour her husband’s wishes to take over the running of the gym – and face daily reminders of the life her beloved Robbo lived?
“Jasmine does feel torn,” says Sam. “But she knows that every time Robbo was going through a difficult time, the gym was his happy place – his sanctuary where he could be himself.
“Keeping Robbo’s memory alive is so important to Jasmine, but everything is just so painful for her.
“I don’t know how Jasmine is going to get through this terrible time,” continues Sam. “She is a person who puts her entire heart and soul into absolutely everything she does.”
