Fans were devastated when Lauren coaxed Christine into revealing the status of her marriage with Paul.

Even though Paul and Christine have split, their relationship lives on in the hearts of their devoted fans.

Loyal viewers of the show followed their journey for decades, becoming invested in their every move.

One of their biggest obstacles was undoubtedly Phyllis Summers.

However, Paul and Christine had a tendency to develop feelings for others.

Christine was Michael’s biggest champion, and it put a strain on her relationship with Paul.

Sadly, their relationship fell apart yet again after she refused to marry Paul.

Their attempt at a life together would remain on pause until Christine’s eventual return to the series.

In 2013, they finally married, and the marriage would last a decade.

Unfortunately, it’s a soap opera, and relationships are rarely smooth sailing in the genre.

The discovery of Nikki Newman’s secret love child with Paul threw a wrench into their happiness.

Another moment that threatened to derail their love was the loss of their unborn child.

Things weren’t clicking and what they shared in the past is no longer present.
