In her post, the AFL WAG— who shares daughter Samara with hubby and footy player Nathan Broad — said the café had played an important part in her mental health.

'Anyone with a child knows how important your local café is to your mental health,' she wrote to her Instagram Story over a photo with her daughter being held by a barista who stood in front of a coffee machine.

'Some days, it's the only adult conversation you have outside your partner at the end of the day.

'For Samara and me, our local café became our family. They watched Samara grow and learn new tricks, checked in on me every day, played with her, and loved her.

'It was our favourite part of the day. Unfortunately, Sunday was their last business day.

'Although absolutely devastated, I am also so grateful for what they gave Samara and me each day,' she added.

The sad post comes after Taylarevealed she was given a very unexpected health diagnosis after visiting the doctors.

The former reality startook to Instagram on Saturday to explain that she recently booked in to see a doctor after blisters appeared all over her hands.

Tayla, who lives in Melbourne, said she was shockingly told she had given herself a 'mild case of frostbite' from pushing her daughterSamara's pram without gloves on.

Sharing the surprising news, she wrote: 'Lol, I am embarrassed for myself. I woke up a few days ago with blisters all over my hands so I booked in to see my doctor.

'Turns out I've given myself a mild case of frostbite. I keep my hands on the pram without any protection on my early morning walks which has frozen them.

'I have to wear gloves for a few weeks until it calms down hahaha.'

Frostbite is an injury caused by the freezing of the skin and underlying tissue, with its early stages referred to as frostnip.

Tayla shares her daughterSamara, nine months, with her AFL star husband Nathan Broad, who she tied the knot with in October 2022.

'Just to keep it real. 10/10 would not recommend having a baby and trying to work without family to help,' she added in an Instagram post at the time.
