Bachelor-Turned-Family-Man spends Mothers’ Day in Byron Bay

Bachelor-Turned-Family-Man spends Mothers’ Day in Byron Bay

Bachelor show, Matty JThe star of the 2017 Bachelor show, Matty J, and the winner of the series Laura Byrne, now Matty’s life partner, were in Byron Bay on the weekend celebrating Mothers’ Day.
The Bachelor success-story couple were travelling with their two beautiful daughters, one-year-old Marlie-Mae and baby Lola, born just three months ago.

Like so many other young families, they were touring the grounds of The Farm at Byron Bay enjoying the gorgeous weather.

Matty, 33, and Laura, 31, are based in Bondi with Matty working in radio while Laura still identifies as a jewellery designer despite having her hands full caring for two little girls.

In a recent interview with The Daily Telegraph, Laura said, “All the time. Both Matt and I go, ‘Holy sh*t, we’re so lucky.’ We hoped that we’d meet someone on the show, but there’s no way in hell either of us could ever have expected that we’d meet the person we’re going to spend the rest of our lives with and have a family with – and that all of this would come from doing a reality TV show. But we’re so grateful for it.”

The couple plan to marry at the end of the year.

SPLENDOUR IN THE GRASS 2024 HAS BEEN CANCELLED

SPLENDOUR IN THE GRASS 2024 HAS BEEN CANCELLED

 

By Liam Jennings

To the surprise of many punters, Splendour in the Grass 2024 has been cancelled.

The announcement came today (27.03.2024) from an article posted on Tone Deaf stating “Splendour in the Grass 2024 has been cancelled, according to music industry reports.”

Splendour in the Grass then released a statement confirming that the festival was being cancelled due to ‘unexpected events’.

“With a heavy heart, we’re announcing the cancellation of Splendour in the Grass 2024, originally scheduled from Friday 19 July to Sunday 21 July in Ngarindjin/North Byron Parklands.” stated event organisers.

“We know there were many fans excited for this year’s line-up and all the great artists planning to join us, but due to unexpected events we’ll be taking the year off. Ticket holders will be refunded automatically. We thank you for your understanding and will be working hard to be back in future years.”

Splendour in the grass 2024 cancelled

To the surprise of many punters, Splendour in the Grass 2024 has been cancelled.

It was then followed up by a quote from Jessica Ducrou & Paul Piticco, co-CEOs of Secret Sounds, “We’re heartbroken to be missing a year especially after more than two decades in operation. This festival has always been a huge community effort, and we’d like to thank everyone for their support and overall faith. We hope to be back in the future.”

Many fans have taken to social media to vent their frustration, resulting in the official social media pages for Splendour in the grass disabling their comment section.

This news comes only one week after tickets went on sale to the public.

This has left festival goers believing it may be due to low ticket sales, similar to the announcement that Groovin the Moo 2024 has also been cancelled from insignificant sales.

Other festival organisers are blaming the cost of living on low ticket sales, however, large scale concerts, such as Fred Again, Taylor Swift, and recently Hozier, have all sold out within minutes. This is leaving fans to believe if it is in fact cost of living pressures, or festival organisers booking acts that don’t resonate with their audiences.

What to do if you’ve purchased tickets for the event:

If you have purchased tickets for Splendour in the Grass 2024, you don’t need to do anything – your ticket(s) will be automatically refunded back to your credit card/PayPal account and Moshtix will let you know when this has been done. Refunds will be processed within the next 5-10 business days.

Visit www.moshtix.com.au for any issues in relation to ticket refunding.
