In his exclusive photo shoot with OK!,Matty J Spills on Finally finding love on the bachelor...

Hello Sailor!

First things first – yes, Australia’s fifth and freshest Bachelor Matty Johnson is as divine in the flesh as he is on screen! And he is even more adorable loved-up, which the 31-year-old confirms he now is, thanks to successfully finding the girl of his dreams on his season of The Bachelor.

‘When you are as happy as I am now, you want to tell everyone about it,’ Matty grins. While the identity of his mystery woman will remain top secret until the finale, the Sydney-based marketing manager is clearly head over heels and only too keen to share all he can about his ladylove…

How do you feel now filming has finished?

I feel pretty fantastic right now.

Is everyone asking about your special lady?

I’ve only spoken to my friends and family, and they’ve asked me if I’m happy and if I’m in love. The answer to both is yes and yes!

Will it be hard to keep her a secret?

Yeah, definitely. I want to tell everyone about it, but you’ve got to bottle that up and keep it a secret from everyone and that’s really difficult. You want to tell everyone and you want to introduce that person to your friends and family, but you can’t.

You just have to hit the pause button?

Exactly! Which I know will be difficult and frustrating at times, but I can’t wait until that moment when I can tell everyone and be open about it.

Have you figured out how you’ll make the relationship work in the meantime?

I think FaceTime is key. I’m a big Face Timer and I don’t mind texting throughout the day as well.

Can you describe your perfect partner?

I guess that special someone would be intelligent, ambitious and adventurous, and be someone who’s kind and has a good sense of humour.
