The Bachelor’s Matty J and Laura Byrne have caused quite a stir on social media after revealing a controversial design choice in their latest beach house renovation.
The pair announced their bold decision to make their coastal retreat a ‘bath-less’ zone, igniting a heated debate among followers.
Matty took to Instagram to unveil the news, captioning a video of the ongoing bathroom work with, ‘Don’t come for us, but this will be a bath-less house.’
The short clip showcased the partially renovated bathroom, where walls were lined with a unique blend of beige and cream vertical striped tiles, adding a quirky yet earthy vibe to the space.
Renovation tools and supplies were scattered across a tarp on the floor, hinting at the work still left to be done.
Despite the couple’s excitement, their choice of tile and lack of a bathtub didn’t sit well with everyone.
Social media quickly erupted with mixed reactions.
‘Damn that’s the most awful tile combination I’ve ever seen,’ one user remarked bluntly, adding, ‘but not my bathroom so good luck to you as long as you love it.’

Others voiced concerns over the practicality of going bath-less, especially with young children.
One parent commented, ‘Kids can just sit in the shower. Mine do that most nights,’ while another admitted they regretted installing a bathtub in their own home, saying it’s now used more as a storage space than anything else.
However, some followers appreciated the bold choice, with one person enthusiastically commenting, ‘Arrrr the stripes are looking so good ❤️.’

Another assured the couple, ‘We went bath-less when we did up our bathroom at our old place, and it was fine. The kids survived having showers!’
Despite the mixed feedback, Matty and Laura seem unbothered by the controversy, sticking to their vision of a minimalistic beach escape.
Laura added a humorous touch to the debate, hinting at their eco-friendly mindset, ‘Will she continue washing her feet and teeth in the sink?’ she teased.
