But as they walked out of the church after saying 'I do', bride Carina told a show producer: "What the f***? Am I going to get a different guy or what?"

At first, MAFS fans who had tuned in to the new series on E4 did not know why Carina wanted a swap her husband.

It quickly became apparent, however, that they'd dated eight months previously.

And to make matters worse, Frenchman Paul had GHOSTED Carina after their first date.

Carina and Paul's family had no idea about their previous liaison and appeared delighted by the match at their wedding.

But backstage, the newlyweds were having crisis talks with MAFS producers.

Moments after tying the knot, Carina could be heard saying: "What the f***? Am I going to get a different guy or what?

"I know him. I cannot believe I got him.

She then repeated: "l'm going to get a different guy, right?"

Carina was shown speaking to a female MAFS producer, who was dressed all in black.

She said: "We matched eight months ago. We FaceTimed and messaged and have been on a hike.

"Because we were messaging, I was going to see him on a Saturday night but his housemate took him out. I've never spoken to him since."

Carina added: "He just stopped texting."

Paul was also shown speaking to a MAFS crew member elsewhere in their luxury wedding venue.

He, however, appeared more upbeat and even said it was a 'sign' he was destined to be with Carina.

Recalling his previous dalliance with her, Paul said: "I remember thinking I was useless because it was the right person but I was in the worst headspace.

"I was going through a rough patch and had a lot of issues with work and family. I was not in the right headspace.

"When I saw her, it felt unreal. I remember feeling like s*** at the time, as she didn’t deserve that."

Paul added: "I am so ready for this. It feels like the universe if giving that chance again."

The newlyweds were eventually brought back together but Carina gave her new husband the cold shoulder.

She told him: "I thought I knew you, 'Oh my god, there’s that guy who ghosted me'." 

Paul apologised for not "communicating" his feelings with Carina at the time. 

But Carina told the cameras: "My guard is up. Is he just saying these things because our first encounter didn’t work out? I don’t know."

However, by the end of their wedding reception, Carina offered to give Paul another chance and they shared a kiss.
