Phoebe Burgess has revealed she's changing her name following her split from ex-husband Sam Burgess.

The 32-year-old former football WAG made the revelation when she responded to an Instagram follower, asking why she hasn't changed her name from 'Mrs' to 'Ms' on social media.

'Just curious: I get the desire to keep the same surname as your kids but have you thought about changing your Insta handle to MSphoebeburgess?' the fan asked.

'Just because your nobodies MRS, and you are a kick a** independent woman??? This post is meant with support and kindness.'

Phoebe responded: 'Thank you for asking and thank you for your candour/ honesty and support.'

'Legally, I am Ms everywhere - On my IG it says "please contact support to change username". So, yes it's a process which I am well and truly in.'

Phoebe shares her son Billy, two, and daughter Poppy, four, with her ex-husband, NRL star Sam Burgess, who she split with for the second time in October 2019, just months after they had rekindled their marriage.

Phoebe partly blamed their marriage breakdown on the NRL claiming the clubs did little to help her then-husband Sam Burgess.

'He wasn't looked after,' Phoebe told The Weekend Australian.
