John and Matt’s relationship

Matt’s older brother John is clearly an important part of his life. The two experienced the same difficult family upbringing.

Their father, Manny James left their mother, Patty Cucolo, when they were both young.

Matt has saaid on The Bachelor that he and John were raised solely by their mother Patty. This has impacted Matt and his confidence in building relationships.

Even though John had more time with their father, Matt admitted that their father was unfaithful to their mother while they were together.

Matt has expressed that he and his brother have some clear differences, including Matt’s close following of the Christian faith.

However, John’s Instagram page contains more spiritual pictures containing mandalas and tarot symbols.

“My brother and I have completely different religious beliefs, and I don’t love him any less. I would never want that to be something that kept me from being with somebody,” Matt told ET.

Both men also have very different career paths. While John is a rapper, Matt is a businessman with a non-profit.

Even though the brothers don’t appear in many social media pictures together, Matt claims John is one of the people who know him better than anyone.

The Bachelor is currently on hiatus on ABC.
