Matt Zukowski set the record straight after photos emerged of him chatting to several women at a Sydney event last week.
The former Love Island Australia star, 29, traveled on a chartered private jet and ventured to Harbor City for an influencer event while her fiancée Tammy Hembrow headed off on a girls’ trip to Greece.
Photos from the event show the former reality star talking to several women, including a blonde and two brunettes, at Flight Club, a cocktail and darts bar.
In an Instagram post containing a series of photos of him at the event, Matt claimed that he was simply spending time with friends and noted that they are too committed.
‘I don’t normally comment on these things, but I thought I’d chime in here. “They are my colleagues and we have the same management, so we have met at many events before,” he wrote.
“They are also engaged and we were talking about wedding preparation and comparing our engagements in the Maldives.”
Matt doubled down on his attendance at the event, saying he would have traveled to Sydney regardless of his fiancee Tammy being overseas.
‘I was invited to this event weeks ago and would have attended whether my fiancee was in Australia or not.

‘You guys need to get a life. Seriously, it’s so weird how obsessed you are with people you’ve never met and only know through social media.
—Do you also know that a man receives a wedding ring after getting married? Some of us don’t wear engagement rings.
Two of Matt’s friends who appeared in the photo, Amy Pejkovic and Lexi Mary, also weighed in on the drama shared by the account @reeceandlondonaints**t.
“Hi, I’m one of the ‘random girls’ Matt and I have the same agent/management,” Amy commented.

‘This was a branded event, socializing with other people who were also invited is normal behaviour. You’ll need to relax xx.’
Meanwhile, Lexi wrote: ‘Hi! I’m the ‘blonde girl’! In fact, Matt pulled out his phone to show me his beautiful proposal to Tammy; then I showed him my engagement, which was also in the Maldives, so we had that in common, plus we are with the same management group and we all went to this event together. !’
“This is an incredibly sad and cruel post and I hope you take it down,” he added.
It comes after the account @reeceandlondonaints**t pointed out how Matt had shared several photos from the night with a group of male friends, but did not include any photos of the women.
‘Matt tried to make it look like he was just hanging out with the guys on his stories and in his Instagram post after the trip, he even played (darts) games with the girls and didn’t want to post about it… I wonder because. ”, they wrote in the caption.

Wearing a white T-shirt and black baseball cap, Matt was photographed smiling and talking to three women at the bar.
The group of influencers had booked a flight to the Flight Club Sydney venue, where they enjoyed cocktails, beer and played social darts in the group event space.
One-way private jet tickets between Melbourne and Sydney, sold by Flight Charter, sell for more than A$10,500.
In photos shared on social media by other lucky influencers enjoying the great experience, the brunette Matt was seen chatting with was also on the flight.
The drama comes less than a month before Matt’s wedding, as he will exchange vows with his partner Tammy in November.
The couple rushed to start planning their wedding just weeks after they got engaged in December after three months of dating.

Despite concerns that they are rushing to the altar, the couple told Daily Mail Australia earlier this year that they are “very happy” together.
‘Very good. Very happy. “They couldn’t be happier,” they said of their shocking engagement.
‘We are in the middle of wedding planning. It’s not that bad. “I mean, I don’t have to do much, I just have to sit there,” Matt added.
Tammy has been engaged twice before, the first to influencer Reece Hawkins, with whom she shares son Wolf and daughter Saskia.
In November 2021, the fitness guru got engaged to restaurateur and former Ironman Matt Poole. The couple separated in December 2022 and share their two-year-old daughter Posy.
