‘So recently dad has passed away with cancer. Life’s never going to be the same,’ he said to camera.   

‘It tears you apart, losing your best friend let alone your father. Yeah, it’s heartbreaking but, you know, I know he’d be super proud watching over me.’

Matt said that he’s ‘very attracted to Tara’ but wanted her to ‘open up a bit more.’  

He said that when he’s with Tara, he gets a ‘warm fuzzy feeling’ his parents used to tell him he’d experience when he’s falling in love.

‘There’s feelings there and that fuzzy warm feeling there… I’m getting that fuzzy warm feeling dad used to talk about,’ Matt said. 

‘Dad said, “when I met your mother I was blown away and had this fuzzy feeling.”

‘He said, “you’ll know one day when you get it”… I think I’m in the same boat here.’
