She was then a regular cast member in television soap operas Class of '74, The Sullivans and The Young Doctors.

Samuel later returned to television in the regular role of Kelly Morgan-Young in Skyways (TV series). Samuel later guest starred in Hey Dad! as Jeanette Taylor and All Saints, and played the school principal in The Wiggles in their film The Wiggles Movie. Samuel is married to Tony Ahern.
