Surrounded by hundreds of blooming roses, fuchsia orchids and lilac hydrangeas on the grounds of a luxury estate, what should have been the beginning of a forever love story instead became the most brutal break-up of the season – and possibly in the history of the show. Some moments were so raw and distressing, I understand they won’t be broadcast.

I was yours,’ she began, holding back tears.’I gave you all of me. I showed you parts of myself I’d hidden for so long. I let you in… I let myself believe in you again.’Paul smiled as she spoke.

I was yours,’ she began, holding back tears. ‘I gave you all of me. I showed you parts of myself I’d hidden for so long. I let myself believe in you again’ Carina then went on to recount, one by one, the incidents that broke her. ‘When you punched the door because of something I said… when you exposed my private comments to Awhina and the group… when you went on that “plan B” date and said you were “just curious”… That was the moment I realised – you haven’t grown. You haven’t changed. You don’t deserve me’ Then came the line that broke him. ‘You’re going to have to live with that regret for the rest of your life. Goodbye, Paul’ They hugged it out briefly, and Paul clung to her like a man on the edge of a cliff, whispering something into her ear. Carina gently pushed him away There were no second takes. No staged reactions. What happened next was as raw and unscripted as reality TV gets. Paul froze As she turned and began walking away – clutching her vows in one hand – Paul was left standing alone in a sea of roses, his dreams shattered In my photos, Paul can be seen trying to compose himself, his expression flickering between disbelief and devastation Carina had her back turned and walked away.

Goodbye, Paul.’Paul’s collapseThere were no second takes. No staged reactions. What happened next was as raw and unscripted as reality TV gets.Paul froze. He stared at her, lips trembling, blinking rapidly as the truth of her words settled in. She cried. He cried.They hugged it out briefly, and Paul clung to her like a man on the edge of a cliff, whispering something into her ear. Carina gently pushed him away.’I can’t,’ she said, her voice cracking.As she turned and began walking away, clutching her vows in one hand, Paul was left standing alone in a sea of roses, his dreams shattered.In my photos, Paul can be seen trying to compose himself, his expression flickering between disbelief and devastation.He reached out towards Carina as she walked away, as though he might call her name – but he said nothing. And then he broke down. Ignoring the crew and producers, Paul walked away. He went down a garden path and into a secluded bushy alcove, away from the cameras, away from the cast, away from Carina The man who once stood tall and confident, who had told producers he was ‘in love’ and ready for forever, was now inconsolable Nobody knew what to do. Producers hovered but stayed back to let him process the moment Meanwhile, a few metres away, Carina was seen wiping away her tears’Nobody knew what to do’Ignoring the crew and producers, Paul walked away.He went down a garden path and into a secluded bushy alcove, away from the cameras, away from the cast, away from Carina.He collapsed onto a wooden bench, buried his face in his hands and sobbed.The man who once stood tall and confident, who had told producers he was ‘in love’ and ready for forever, was now inconsolable.Nobody knew what to do.Producers hovered nearby but stayed back to let him process the moment.One crew member later told me, ‘It was the most real thing I’ve ever seen on this show. We were all holding our breath.’Eventually, a senior producer rushed over to check on him, crouching next to the bench, speaking to him quietly.But Paul couldn’t stop crying. He wiped his tears on the sleeve of his white blazer. In one of my final shots from the day, Carina is seen walking alone across the grass, her silver gown glinting in the sun, her back turned to the man who once had her heart Then reality gave way to reality TV and she was swiftly pulled away by a producer and asked to film a ‘voxxie’ The lead-up: ‘He had no idea’Sources close to production tell me Paul had gone into Final Vows feeling confident about their future.He had shared with another groom earlier in the week that he was ‘head over heels’ and couldn’t wait to start a ‘real life’ with Carina in Sydney.’He had no idea,’ one insider reveals.’He thought she might call him out for a few things, but he assumed it would end in a happy moment. Instead, she blindsided him. But everyone else saw it coming.’Carina had reportedly been quiet in the days leading up to the final vows, emotionally withdrawn and contemplative. She told producers she had rewritten her vows three times, unsure how far she wanted to go.Right up until the last moment, she had no idea what to do. She asked her mother Carmel for advice and she said to listen to her heart.Ultimately, she decided to speak her truth, and not let love cloud the reality of what she had endured.The aftermathIn one of my final shots from the day, Carina is seen walking alone across the grass, her silver gown glinting in the sun, her back turned to the man who once had her heart.Then reality gave way to reality TV and she was swiftly pulled away by a producer and asked to film a ‘voxxie’.Paul, still shaking, remained on that bench for close to 20 minutes, until he was escorted away by producers to film his piece to the camera.Insiders tell me that Paul and Carina didn’t speak for weeks afterwards.NEW TO MAIL+?
