He added: ‘I’m not comfortable with all of it at the moment, I’m certainly not as comfortable with putting myself in front of the camera as her, or as good.’ 

Matt also revealed that he has asked Tammy for modelling tips, but still has a lot to learn. 

‘Sometimes I ask for tips around the posing from Tammy but I just don’t seem to get it,’ he said, adding that it’s definitely a change of pace for him.

‘I know earlier in my career I would never have found myself promoting a toothbrush company,’ he said. 

Tammy and her surfer beau went public with their romance in September during a trip to the Whitsundays. 

That month, Matt also made his debut on his girlfriend’s YouTube channel, admitting in a Q&A video that he’d been the first to say ‘I love you’.

‘I did. I am obsessed,’ Matt said, before Tammy explained how he had confessed his feelings after they’d ‘had a little fight’ on holiday.

‘We had a little fight over nothing, and then when he was trying to make up with me and apologise, he told me he loved me,’ she said with a smile.

Matt also seems to be getting on wonderfully with Tammy’s children, Wolf and Saskia, whom she shares with her ex-partner Reece Hawkins.

He runs a popular restaurant on the Gold Coast called Maman Bar and Kitchen.
