Brittany Groth, the wife of the Victorian Liberals deputy leader, Sam Groth, has defended the timing of her relationship with her former tennis star husband as the pair threaten legal action against News Corp and a Labor minister.
On Wednesday, the couple’s legal firm sent a defamations concerns notice to the Herald Sun, alleging two articles and social media posts by the publication were both a serious invasion of Brittany’s privacy and harmful to Sam’s reputation.
