"I've been a little bit nervous coming into this experience because I'm super vulnerable with my story. I am the type of guy who wants to be open and transparent, because, you know, there's no other way to do it...
"I am... married," Carlin expressed to Angie as she ate her salmon.
"In 2016, I got married. We've been apart for a year and a half," he told an understandably concerned-looking Ange.
"We drifted apart, you know? And I was... I was pretty hurt in the process, and she's moved overseas now. So, like, for me that was sort of like, you know, I was, like, I've closed that chapter of my life."
"So we filed for divorce and stuff and I suppose that's sort of just the last stage of that."
Well, all Australia has been interested in is WHO is this ex-wife. Well, the internet has done what it does best and dug up the dirt.
Carlin's ex-wife is Taran Higgins... and she is stunning.
While Carlin insists that his past relationship is well and truly over, Angie was pretty shocked by his confession.
"I know I wanted to try something different, but the bloke's still bloody married."
"I had so much fun with you today, and I love that we were able to talk about pretty much everything, but you definitely opened up and showed me a side that you didn't have to, but you chose to," she told him with a huge grin on her face.
"I'm glad he's telling me the truth, but it did kind of throw a spanner in the works. He is, you know, only kind of recently separated, and the divorce isn't final. It just really made me start thinking, you know, are you ready? Are you here for the right reasons?"
We guess we'll find out!
