Cam explained that it's common for retired sportsman to find themselves in a bad mental state when they have "no fall-back plan".
He had just come out of a long-term relationship, had no source of income and nowhere to sleep.
"I was in Vancouver airport homeless for four days in the airport on my own," the MAFS star revealed.
"I couldn't put pants on, I was mentally and physically crippled."
The ex-cricketer says meeting Jules 'saved' him. (Instagram)
Cameron revealed he got himself back to Sydney and checked himself into Currumbin Clinic.
He got a new lease on life after getting into cricket coaching, and has said meeting his now wife Jules on MAFS in 2019 "saved" him.
The couple legally married a year later and now share two beautiful sons.
