'After almost five years as a FIFO Wellness Advisor, this chapter of my journey comes to an end,' Paul began. 'It's been an incredible ride filled with growth, challenges, and the privilege of making a real impact on people's health and well-being in one of the toughest environments.'

While he's yet to spill all the details, insiders told Yahoo Lifestyle that Paul’s next chapter involves launching an online coaching business and crafting custom fitness programs for clients. Fans were quick to notice the shift, with Paul teasing 'Big things incoming!' in a recent workout clip shared to his business account. It comes after Paul did a stunning about face while attempting to rewrite history in what was a dramatic MAFS Reunion on Sunday.
The newly single groom was left heartbroken and in tears after his bride Carina Mirable jilted him at Final Vows. But absence certainly hadn't made Paul's heart grow fonder for Carina in the four weeks since the fateful day. In the interim, Paul had apparently rewritten the events of the experiment, casting Carina as the villain in the pairing.
'I had suspicions she obviously had a lot of insecurities, that she obviously had crazy jealousy tendencies and she proved my point at Final Vows,' Paul told producers before his reunion entrance.

'There's no hope whatsoever with me and Carina - she is a big snob,' Paul shockingly declared.
'I was giving her the benefit of the doubt at some point but she certainly is 100 per cent.' The feeling was mutual, with Carina admitting, on her way to the reunion, that she wasn't looking forward to catching up with Paul. 'I feel like there's an ickiness towards Paul in my gut.
I wouldn't say I am excited to see him,' she said. 'I'm very uncomfortable. Honestly, I cant even look Paul in the eyes.
We've gone from husband and wife to complete strangers.' The tension between the pair was palpable during the pre-dinner soiree, with Paul admitting to Eliot Donovan that he didn't think Carina was a good match for him. 'I don't have any sort of romantic feelings for Carina,' Paul added in a chat with producers.
The career change comes hot on the heels of a fiery MAFS journey, which saw Paul sparked controversy with his on-screen partner Carina Mirabile - though the pair have since formed an amicable off-screen friendship 'Carina is someone who worries way too much about what other people are thinking of her. 'The fact that she's also very judgemental, and I don't want to be with someone like that.' The tension did not subside when Paul and Carina took their places at the dinner table, either.
'The vibe between Paul and I is really weird. We are both in different spaces. I don't know how to act around him,' Carina admitted.
