Mark Wahlberg caused quite a commotion as he met fans at Bondi’s F45 gym in Sydney on Monday. 

Wahlberg is a financial backer of the gym chain and through his investment company, bought a majority stake in 2019 for $US450million – or $A634million.

The Hollywood star, 52, showed off his buff frame in a white t-shirt emblazoned with his Municipal brand logo paired with matching shorts and sneakers.

He accessorised with a black baseball cap worn backwards on his head and a smartwatch.

The fitness fanatic lived up to his reputation as one of the nicest guys in Hollywood by happily stopping to pose with fans for selfies.
