Born in Sydney on July 17, 1990, Reid lived in the town of Galston, New South Wales until he was offered a scholarship at Nick Bollettieri Academy in Bradenton, Florida.

Matt played his first professional match at the age of 19 after competing in the junior Wimbledon Doubles championship along with Bernard Tomic in 2008.

Another sport the tennis player loves is rugby. Apparently, rugby was his backup plan if tennis hadn't worked out. Reid is very close to his family and has 3 siblings, including a twin sister.

It's been almost a year since Rebel Wilson broke up with her ex-boyfriend Jacob Busch in February 2021.
