Meanwhile, during Thursday night’s episode, Carlin admitted that he was technically still married to his estranged wife. 

After landing a 24-hour date with Angie, he confessed his divorce hadn’t yet been officially finalised.

‘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,’ he stammered.

His revelation prompted a shell-shocked Angie to laugh nervously in response.

‘In 2016, I, um… I got married. We’ve been apart for a year-and-a-half,’ he continued, claiming he and his wife simply ‘drifted apart’. 

‘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.’
