Description:

It’s easy to be sceptical about reality TV romances. But sometimes, they just work. Take Laura Byrne and Matty J, who met and fell in love on The Bachelor Australia in 2017 – and are now one of the country’s most popular couples. In this episode of Something To Talk About, Laura and Matty sit down just weeks out from welcoming their third child to discuss – with humour, honesty and, yes, a bit of exhaustion – how they are revamping traditional gender roles as they raise their young family.

Laura explains what it’s like being the primary breadwinner, and Matty opens up about modern fatherhood and – with a third daughter on the way – the reality that he may never raise the son he always envisaged he would have. From baby name slip-ups to beach house renos, this is a surprisingly moving conversation with two people who are doing marriage and family their own way.
