Sam and Phoebe Burgess sell their lavish Sydney home following split

"The most important thing for them is that their children are happy and healthy, that is their priority," the source added.

Phoebe maintains that the reason behind their split, "will always and forever just be between Sam and I".

In December, Sam was issued with an AVO and banned from going within a kilometre of his estranged wife's country hideout after an alleged row with her father. 

The altercation was alleged to have occurred when Sam was visiting his two children at the NSW southern highlands estate when he allegedly got into an argument with Phoebe's dad, Mitchell Hooke.
