About Cameron Merchant
Australian cricketer Cameron Merchant had a Second XI career in Australia before moving to New Zealand to play first class cricket in 2007. The left-handed batsman (and occasional right-arm off-break bowler) scored more than 1,000 runs in First and Second XI cricket, including two centuries and five half-centuries.
After appearing on Australia’s ‘Married at First Sight’ TV show in 2019, Cam went on to marry his reality TV wife Jules Robinson in real life! The pair are now expecting parents, and Cam joins us to chat about his impending transition to family life.
Every Friday, we’ll be publishing a new podcast episode to keep you entertained and inspired, no matter what kind of week you’ve had. Look forward to kicking back and enjoying a bit of a banter with an Australian icon, sports hero or other familiar face as we ask them about fathering, family and fame.
