In the buildup to Paul's wedding to Terese Willis, his former wives turn up in Erinsborough and try to convince Terese not to go through with the marriage. While the couple are in Queensland, Paul meets his former wife Christina Alessi (Gayle Blakeney) and her sister Caroline Alessi (Gillian Blakeney), who reveals that someone he knows is behind the plan. Elle then receives a video call from Paul, who demands to know why she would do that to him. Elle explains that after learning of his engagement to Terese, she wanted to test him and get him to think about how he treated his former wives, but she never told them to break him and Terese up. She also reveals that she was working with her half-brother, Leo Tanaka (Tim Kano).
