Married At First Sight groom Paul Antoine was left in tears on Monday night when bride Carina Mirabile dumped him at the altar.
And the wellness advisor, 31, did not take the loss gracefully, as he was seen begging producers to intervene just moments after Carina, 31, left him.
Sobbing as he ran off to break down away from the cameras, producers managed to pull him aside for a vox pop where he asked them to help get his wife back.
'I'm f***ing heartbroken right now. Can't believe it's over,' he said.
'Did you have any inkling it was going to go like this today?' one of the producers asked.
'No. Literally none. I just want to go and give her the biggest hug. I feel like asking you to maybe... [get her to] try a little harder to move past it,' he replied.
'I just want to convince her. I'd like to think she's going to regret her decision.
'Part of me is still hoping she will regret the decision and she'll reach out and decide to continue. If she does, I'll be here with open arms.'
Daily Mail Australia revealed on Sunday the shattering truth behind what Carina included in her vows to Paul - and there was plenty producers didn't air on TV.
Surrounded by hundreds of blooming blossoms on the grounds of a luxury estate, Carina and Paul's love story ended in the most brutal break-up the show has seen.
The ceremony began like many others on MAFS, with Paul going first, reading his vows with optimism.
He gushed about their early connection, reminiscing about their honeymoon in Vanuatu, the laughs they shared, and the passion they had during Intimacy Week.
Paul admitted to making mistakes but said he was committed to becoming a better man for Carina.
Our inside source at MAFS previously said he even revealed plans for them to move to Sydney together after the show ended.

Then it was Carina's turn.
What started as a soft and loving recount of their journey quickly turned into an emotionally charged speech which left Paul reeling.
'You had me. I was yours,' she said, 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. He thought he was about to get his fairytale ending.
Her voice shifted.
'But then… You made me feel small. You made me feel unsafe. You made me feel like I was not enough,' she said in un-aired footage of her vows.
Carina went on to recount, one by one, the incidents which broke her.

'When you punched the door because of something I said... when you exposed my private comments to Awhina and the group,' she said.
'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 which sent Paul into tears - a line producers chose not to air.
'You're going to have to live with that regret for the rest of your life. Goodbye, Paul.'
There 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.
'You're going to have to live with that regret for the rest of your life. Goodbye, Paul,' Carina said
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 photos obtained by Daily Mail Australia, Paul could 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.
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 inconsolable.
It wasn't until a senior producer intervened to comfort Paul that he pulled himself back together and did his vox pop.
