Laura Byrne has confessed to ‘cheating’ on her husband Matty ‘J’ Johnson during mortifying ordeal which occurred 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.
Speaking on the Life Uncut podcast, Laura’s co-host Brittany Hockley outed her for the act.
‘You cheated on Matt… You tried to cheat on Matt,’ Brittany, 36, said.
Laura explained the moment was purely accidental and assured her listeners that she truly believed she was touching her husband.

‘We’re standing there, Matt was wearing a grey 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 could feel that Matt was looking at me… But looking at me in a way that didn’t feel, from my periphery, like it was normal.’
Laura said when she finally turned around, she discovered she hadn’t been rubbing Matt’s back at all, but in fact another Bachelor star who was wearing a very similar suit.

‘I was rubbing Tim Robards’ back!’ she exclaimed.
‘Just coincidentally, the wrong Bachelor was standing next to me and I was just rubbing him.’
Laura said she doesn’t know the fellow Bachelor star ‘very well’ – Tim starred on the first season of The Bachelor 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 in circles… For more than a minute. It was an uncomfortably long time.
