Laura Byrne took to Instagram to share a fun photo of her husband Matty 'J' Johnson.

He instantly became a fan favorite of the Network Ten franchise, The Bachelor.

The affable star first came to national attention on season 2 of The Bachelorette in 2017 and finished the season in second place.

The following year he appeared on the fifth season of The Bachelor and quickly won the hearts of fans and, eventually, a wife.

The TV star went on to co-host the travel show Luxury Escapes: The Worlds Best Holidays with Sophie Faulkner.

He then dipped his toe back into the reality show waters as a contestant on the 2021 series of Dancing With The Stars, where he was the sixth contestant eliminated.

She is currently appearing in the eleventh series of the Channel Ten hit I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!

With a rather red complexion and a thick mop of wavy black hair, Matty looked almost unrecognizable compared to his current appearance.

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 photo of the future reality show heartthrob.

The couple tied the knot in 2022, five years after their Bachelor reunion, and the couple now share two children.

On Wednesday, Laura was quick to oblige a fan who demanded: “We need to see a picture of a young Matty J.”

With a rather red complexion and a thick mop of wavy black hair, Matty looked almost unrecognizable in the photo.

Laura issued a stern warning to women who might have plans with their man after seeing the image.

‘He’s going to kill me. The brilliance of all brilliance is for this man here. Ladies, stand back, he is mine,” she wrote.

The post received a flood of comments from fans, with one admitting they had trouble believing it was Matty in the image.

'He's going to kill me. The brilliance of all brilliance is for this man here. Ladies, step back, it's mine,' Laura wrote alongside the image.

‘He’s going to kill me. The brilliance of all brilliance is for this man here. Ladies, step back, it’s mine,’ Laura wrote alongside the image.

“I refuse to believe this is Matty J,” the skeptical fan wrote.

Another fan made a not-so-subtle remark about the size of Matty’s ears in the photo.

“I mean, it would have been a great model for all your Toni May earrings…lots of display space,” they said.

Another joked that after seeing the picture it was obvious why Matty turned out to be such a nice guy.

‘Bless him, that’s why he has such a beautiful personality, I had no other choice,’ the fan commented.

The comments didn’t stop them either, with another follower suggesting that Matty’s transformation looked like something out of a fairy tale.

“That man embodies the nerdy duckling that turned into a beautiful swan,” they offered.

The hilarious throwback photo comes after Laura revealed the cheeky gift she bought her husband before entering the I’m A Celebrity jungle.

He married his single girlfriend, Laura, in 2022, five years after his bachelor reunion, and the couple now share two children: Marlie-May, five, and Lola, three.

“I was thinking what I’m going to bring to entertain everyone, so I bought act*** ring online,” Laura confessed on her Life Uncut podcast.

‘I wanted to send Matt off with a bang. He’s never tried one. I’ve never tried one.

Laura, who added that the electric vanity accessory came complete with a “scary” number of settings, said that before the couple could road test the item, it was discovered by their daughter Lola.

“I had been carrying it for two days and I had forgotten about it,” he said.

“Lola was the one who ruined the anticipation when she came downstairs wearing it like a fully vibrating bracelet.”

Lola, who is used to wearing her mother’s jewelry at home, was quite enthralled with her new bracelet and even wanted to take it to daycare.

“I was walking around the house and I was like, ‘Mom, this one’s moving,'” Laura said.
