Listen to this article
Married At First Sight Australia's Carina Mirabile and Paul Antoine have had an interesting journey on the show so far, but are they still together?
Paul (30) and Carina (31) were matched by experts John Aiken, Mel Schilling and Alessandra Rampolla but on their wedding day, Carina dropped a massive shock bombshell – they'd previously dated and Paul had ended up ghosting her.
On paper, the two seem perfect for each other. Carina is from a large Italian family, and Paul is looking for a partner with European flair. Carina was hoping to find someone tall, handsome, European and educated... French-born Paul seems to fit that brief too.
But do they make it all the way through the experiment and are they still together now that filming has finished? Here's a full breakdown of Carina and Paul's relationship. (Spoilers ahead!)

Carina and Paul got off to a rocky start with Carina admitting to the camera: "We matched eight months ago. FaceTimed and messaged and then we went on a hike. But then he just stopped texting."
At their wedding, she even asked producers if there was a "different option". Paul stepped up and apologised to Carina's parents, confessing that he wasn’t in the right place emotionally to start a relationship the first time he went out with Carina.
At time of writing, the show has finished airing in Australia and Carina dumped Paul at Final Vows.
Keeping up the allure of the show, in an interview with Chattr, while the show was still airing in Australia, Carina hinted that they were a couple. When asked if she's been paying attention to any of the drama surrounding her cast mates, she replied: "To be fair, my phone is going off, and I’m just enjoying life with Paul and all the rest of the cast that are my friends."
Then, when asked about her Valentine's Day plans, she added: "Paul’s still in the mines, he’s actually finishing off his last swing and he’s got eight days to go now… so I’m in Melbourne with the girls, and we’re doing a girls’ Valentine’s Day tomorrow."
What's more is he couple were also papped at the beach in Sydney at the start of March but the pair have now both addressed their split.
When the show ended in Australia, Paul wrote on Instagram: "Sometimes things don’t go the way you hope, but that doesn’t take away from the beauty of the journey.
"Carina, I want to say how much I respect your decision and how grateful I am for the time we shared. I know I made mistakes, and I’m truly sorry for the hurt I caused.
"Despite everything, you showed grace, kindness, and strength, and I’ll always hold deep respect for you.
"You’ll forever be someone important to me, and I’ll always cherish the memories we made. Wishing you nothing but love and happiness on your journey ahead."
Things went awry for Paul and Carina when the cast were given the option to meet their 'alternative' matches for a date. Despite their relationship being at a strong point, Paul chose to go on a date with his alternative wife.
