The Bachelor’s Laura Byrne reveals she ‘cheated’ on her husband Matty ‘J’ Johnson at an event

Laura Byrne has admitted she 'cheated' on her husband Matty 'J' Johnson during a horrific ordeal that took place at an event she attended this week.

The 37-year-old former Bachelor star, who married Matt five years after meeting on the Channel 10 dating show, revealed she lovingly rubbed another man's back.

On the Life Uncut podcast, Laura's co-host Brittany Hockley invited her to the act.

“You cheated on Matt… You tried to cheat on Matt,” Brittany, 36, said.

Laura explained that the moment was purely coincidental and assured her listeners that she truly believed she was touching her husband.

“We're standing there, Matt was wearing a gray suit. He looked sharp, he looked handsome,” she recalled.

“I was in the middle of a conversation with someone and I reached out and there was Matt and I was rubbing Matt's back.

“Anyway, then I felt Matt looking at me… But looking at me in a way that, from my periphery, didn't feel like it was normal.”

Laura said that when she finally turned around, she discovered that she hadn't been rubbing Matt's back at all, but in fact another Bachelor star wearing a similar suit.

“I rubbed Tim Robards' back!” she exclaimed.

“Coincidentally, the wrong Bachelor was standing next to me and I was petting him.”

Laura said she doesn't know the fellow Bachelor star “very well” – Tim starred in the first season of The Bachelor Australia in 2013 and married his chosen suitor Anna Heinrich five years later.

“I've only met him twice,” Laura continued. “And I was just rubbing circles… For over a minute. It was an uncomfortably long time.
