Of course, it's none other than Matty 'J' Johnson. Matty's wife Laura Byrne took to her husband's Instagram on Thursday to share a teenage throwback photo of the future reality show hunk. The pair tied the knot in 2022, five years after their Bachelor meeting, and the couple now share two children.
On Wednesday, Laura was quick to oblige a fan who demanded: 'we need to see a photo of a young Matty J.'. Sporting a rather red complexion and a thick shock of wavy black hair, Matty looked almost unregognisable in the photo. Laura issued a stern warning to women who might have designs on her man after seeing the image.
