Return of the name-droppers! Lauren Phillips' fiancé Paul O'Brien reads out his most recent text from 'best friend' Matt Damon


Lauren Phillips' fiancé Paul O'Brien is continuing to proudly name-drop the couple's famous friends.

The horse, named 'Dale' after one of the main characters in the movie Step Brothers, lost its race yesterday at Randwick's Kensington track in Sydney, and O'Brien revealed the recent text message Damon sent to him following the loss. His name-drop of the Hollywood hunk comes just months after his fiancé Phillips was slammed by SEN radio boss Craig Hutchison for defending her pal Damon against claims he was paid to attend the Melbourne Cup Carnival. Damon surprised Derby Day racegoers after he and wife Luciana Barroso attended the Lexus Marquee as a guest of Philips and her aviation tycoon fiancé, Paul O'Brien, at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne.
