Matt Dee, a former Bondi Rescue lifeguard and mental health advocate, has died. Multiple outlets report his death and describe him as a familiar figure from the television lifesaving program.
ABC and other outlets say his passing is confirmed by a statement posted online by the clothing and events company he co-founded. The reports also note that Dee worked in youth mental health advocacy and that he “touched the lives of many.” The sources largely align on his identity, his involvement with Bondi Rescue, and his role promoting youth mental health, with most emphasizing his public profile and community impact rather than specific circumstances of his death.
