Under the INFLUENCE

While he might be a former reality star, Matt Agnew is taking the road less travelled by The Bachelor alumni.

The 35-year-old astrophysicist has returned to the spotlight, not with a boxing match or a podcast, but with his first book, Dr Matt's Guide to Life in Space.

In conversation with WHO, Agnew candidly speaks about keeping a low profile when it comes to his personal life and why it doesn't stop him from taking to Instagram to speak on social issues and science....

ON SOBRIETY

March marked two years sober for Agnew, 35, and while he speaks confidently about his new-found love for alcohol-free beer, he admits it took 12 months to be entirely comfortable turning down a drink with friends.

"You do stand out when you're not drinking and there's this line of enquiry where people need to understand why you aren't drinking. There needs to be some kind of rationale behind it," he explains.

"Alcohol is the only drug where people ask you why you're not doing it - no-one asks why you're not doing heroin."
