He didn’t find long-lasting love on The Bachelor in 2019, but astrophysicist Matt Agnew has since found an entirely different look.
Astrophysicist Matt Agnew broke onto screens in 2019 as the year’s Bachelor.
The 34-year-old proved a popular choice as the leading man on the Channel 10 reality show, but has since paved a vastly different path to his counterparts who tend to navigate toward successful social media careers.
Agnew mostly uses his Instagram platform, fit with 120,000 followers, to promote various causes including mental health awareness and the Covid-19 vaccine.
Aside from that, he’s also adopted a very different look since his rise to reality TV fame two years ago, with viewers most likely to remember him with short brown hair and a clean-cut appearance.
Now, Agnew sports a much longer ‘do and a rugged beard in a far cry from his time as the Bachelor.
Agnew chose chemical engineer Chelsie McLeod in favour of Abbie Chatfield at the final rose ceremony in July 2019, but their relationship only lasted six months.
“It’s definitely been rough,” a tearful Chelsie told her Instagram followers during an Instagram Q&A three months after the finale aired. “I do not deal with heartbreak well and yeah, my heart is broken. This sucks.”
McLeod added she’d prefer to keep the details of their split private in an attempt to protect Agnew, leading many to believe it wasn’t mutual.
At the time, Agnew released a statement saying their relationship hadn’t translated into the real world, before going silent for weeks.
He finally discussed the relationship breakdown in February 2020 on comedian Rosie Waterland’s podcast, Just The Gist, saying it left him devastated.
“That’s life and that’s dating, and relationships sometimes they don’t work out but it’s an experience,” he said.
“You do try and find whatever positive things you can find from it but the experience certainly helped me grow as a person.”
He also revealed he was so anxious about backlash he couldn’t bring himself to release a statement.
“I was dreading it. I put together my words and they were something I gave a lot of thought to make sure I was conveying my feelings correctly,” he said.
“I actually got a friend to post it because I couldn’t do it myself.
“I didn’t want to deal with comments, I didn’t want to deal with DMs and all that, and I’m really glad I did.
“Everyone says don’t read it (the comments), and you can do it 99 per cent of the time, but you have that one per cent, that one moment of weakness and you read something and you completely capitulate.”
