Pregnant fiancée Laura Byrne, who filmed one clip, could be heard laughing as Matty posed around their living room in Sydney’s Bondi, in nothing but the ‘mankini’.
‘Really vibing the whole no pants Friday theme,’ Laura captioned the post, referencing Matty’s playful demeanour.
Another video, this time shared to Matty’s Instagram Stories, saw the former reality star changing into Borat’s signature grey suit, and adding his black moustache.

Sacha told The Sydney Morning Herald that the timing of the sequel’s release is perfect, with the Presidential election on November 3.
‘Over the next few weeks, we will determine whether the US remains a democracy or slips into autocracy and that’s why I am releasing this movie now,’ the 49-year-old said.
‘This is my form of protest; me, raising my voice in the only way I know how.’
