Matt Agnew talked about his good friendship with Khanh Aung.
The Bachelor star and MasterChef Australia contestant have become super close, holding hands, sharing regular ‘date nights’ and cuddling.
But the pair denied there was anything “sexual” about their bond while they were speaking on Feast podcast this week.
“It’s the lack of affection straight men show other men that people assume there must be something sexual in there,” said Matt.
Being affectionate and gentle with your friends, and guys especially need to do more of this. Everyone should feel comfortable enough in their sexuality that they don’t feel uncomfortable showing affection, men or women.
