“Kochie has been Nat’s shoulder to cry on,” the source adds.

“She’s like family to him and he would be so cross with Sam. Her comments have left him shaking his head.”

Sam, 44, sent tongues wagging last week when she tweeted that Nat, 53, should just “get on” with her job.

“Look.. I’m out. Nat’s wanted the job forever.. & she’s finally got it. She just needs to get on & enjoy it – and forget about me.. (even though I’m unforgettable),” she wrote.​
