MAFS 2025 Paul Carina DMs Instagram

In a shock twist, Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2025’s Paul Antoine apparently slid into a woman’s DMs back in November. Filming wrapped sometime in September 2024, so it didn’t take long for him to get over his wife Carina Mirable, it seems!

A woman named Emily shared a set of screenshots of a conversation she supposedly had with Paul on TikTok, and it’s a doozy.

Now, take this with a grain of salt, because these haven’t been confirmed by Paul himself, but it’s still very interesting!

Paul starts the conversation by admitting he found Emily on Tinder and then looked her up on Instagram. She’s a little bit concerned by this, but continues chatting to him anyway.

When Emily says she’s not sure if she wants a relationship but also doesn’t want a one-night stand, Paul appears to copy and paste an answer that looks like it has been generated by AI. 

“Here’s a funny and sarcastic reply that shows understanding and agreement,” his message reads. “Ah, the classic ‘open to everything yet committed to nothing’ vibe. Totally get it! Guess we’re both riding the ‘figure it out’ wave!”

He then waxes lyrical about being from France, saying that it “sets him apart from all her Aussie dudes”. 

When Paul says he’s a FIFO (Fly In Fly Out) worker — which makes me think this *could* be him — Emily isn’t keen on meeting up. 

TikTokers drag MAFS’ Paul after his DMs go viral

Of course, the TikTokers in the comment section had a field day. Most couldn’t believe Paul kept talking about his French heritage. 

“He’s really turning me off French guys for real. Hey did you know he’s French? Not sure if he mentioned it eight times yet, but he’s French,” one person joked.

“He’s so obsessed with being French,” another added.

“Not him playing the ‘I’m French’ card,” a third remarked.

Others made fun of Paul for possibly using an AI generator like ChatGPT.

“The use of ChatGPT but he still had no game?” one person asked.

“Did he use ChatGPT I’m WHEEZING that’s so ick,” another said.

“Lmaooo he used ChatGPT and didn’t even remove text at the top,” a third commented.

Well, it looks like Paul has learned a lesson! Don’t go sliding into people’s DMs when you’re about to be on national television, because they will eventually emerge. 

Married At First Sight 2025 airs Sundays at 7pm and Monday – Wednesday at 7:30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
