Matt revealed he is a bachelor no more as he opened up about his love life in an interview with Daily Mail Australia on Friday.
While he didn’t let slip any detail about his new love at the time, he did reveal the difficulties he faced while dating in the public eye – and the shocking moment he ‘hit rock bottom’.
‘I’m prioritising my love life, yes, love life. I’m seeing someone. So not actively dating,’ he said when asked how he was currently fairing in the dating pool.
‘I have prioritised it. Not actively dating. Yeah, seeing someone,’ he repeated, doing his best to keep the details private – and for good reason.
He went on to say dating as a public figure brought with it a whole host of obstacles he never had to worry about before shooting to fame on The Bachelor in 2019.
‘It’s challenging. It’s one of the reasons I am so fiercely private despite the fact I went on national television to date,’ the astrophysicist said.
‘I am fiercely private about my dating life because it is much harder to date while in the public eye.’
Matt went on to say starring in the Channel Ten matchmaking series has forced him to become more aware of whether people only want to date him for the ‘novelty’ of it.
‘In terms of trying to discern and understand people’s intentions, it’s not as hard as it sounds,’ he said when asked how he figures out who is in it for the right reasons.

‘People are usually forthcoming about the fact they have watched [The Bachelor].
‘It ends up being quite obvious early on if a person is more interested in the novelty of finding out what happened on the show.’
Matt went on to say his ‘ideal scenario’ was meeting someone on the dating apps who didn’t recognise him and didn’t watch The Bachelor.
He said people who had no idea who he was were more likely to want to get to know him on a more personal level away from his public persona.
Though the awkward moment would always come around when he had to break the news of his TV fame to them.
‘Usually if we progress to exchange social media details… having 130,000 followers and a blue tick usually prompts questions,’ he said.
‘That’s usually the natural point I say, “Look, I was on television a few years ago.” It’s usually that point I bring it up.’
While Matt has never had a preference dating someone either in the public eye or out of the public eye, he said there are benefits to being with another media personality.

‘I’ve dated both people who have been in the media and entertainment circle and those who are not. There are definitely differences,’ he explained.
‘When dating people who have been in the public eye in that sort of entertainment, social media orbit, there is an extra level of understanding about things.
‘It makes certain things easier if you attend an event together, there is a sense of how things like a red carpet works. It seems really trivial, but it can be intimidating.
‘I’ve had in the past where I’ve been on a few dates with someone, it’s gone really well, and they’ve said they can’t deal with the public stuff.’
‘It’s unfortunate when it happens, because if that is the only thing stopping us then it’s frustrating,’ he added.

He later confirmed he was dating comedian Gen Fricker, before revealing he was again single not long after.
Over the years, he has been romantically linked to several different people, such as ‘croissant queen’ Kate Reid and openly gay MasterChef star Khanh Ong.
However, Matt denied both those relationships, taking particular exception to the fact people kept reading into his close and affectionate friendship with Khanh.
