Now, five months after welcoming daughter Marlie-Mae into the world, the couple have finally set a date to tie the knot! Speaking to The Daily Telegraph’s Confidential at the launch of Jimmy Choo’s new fragrance in Sydney, Matty revealed that The Bachelor couple have tentatively blocked out September 2020 as a possible wedding date.

“There’s no date [set for the wedding]. We love the idea of doing it next year,” Matty explained.

“It might be in September when it’s not too hot and just starting to get warmer.”

Matty J also gave some insight into the couple’s life post-baby, saying that having their daughter has solidified their relationship even more.

“She [Laura] will get up at any hour of the night. She does so much work, way more than I do, so the appreciation I have for Laura now is so much more,” he said.

In an interview with 10 Daily earlier this year, Matty J revealed that he had almost missed the birth of his daughter while on an assignment as a Luxury Escapes co-host. The reality TV star was relaxing in Singapore airport during a four-hour stopover when he suddenly realised he was in the wrong terminal!

“It was one of those stopovers where you kind of get too comfortable,” he shared, explaining a staff member approached him to tell him he was actually in the wrong terminal and his flight was about to leave without him.

“I thought to myself, ‘If I miss this flight, then I’m going to miss the birth’.

“So I was that lunatic in the airport sprinting with my bag flailing behind me, only half my jacket was on and I was the very last person to get on that flight.

“And the moment I stood on that plane, they then shut the door and started taxiing towards take-off.”

In a hilarious turn of events, Matty J’s stress was all for nothing, as Marlie-Mae Rose wasn’t born for another five weeks.
