Samantha Redgrave (born 18 August 1994) is a British rower. She won gold medals in the coxless four at the 2022 European Rowing Championships, the 2024 European Rowing Championships and the 2022 World Rowing Championships.
Redgrave grew up in Gateshead, moved to Frinton in her early teens and went to university in Norwich. She started rowing at the University of East Anglia in 2013, and rowed intermittently for the following few years while working in the Norfolk and Norwich hospital as an assistant practitioner. Her coach at the Norwich Rowing Club persuaded her to tryout for the British rowing team in 2018-19.
She is no relation to Britain's five-time Olympic rowing champion Steve Redgrave.
