She talks relationship with Carl Lentz
In May 2020, Carl Lentz allegedly began a five-month long affair with Ranin Karim. She revealed they met at Domino Park in Brooklyn during the coronavirus lockdown, while searching for a place to sit, when he suggested she join him.
She has publicly apologised to his wife, as per Daily Mail. Ranin detailed on Ex on the Beach how she knew he was married at the time of the affair. The romance led to Carl being fired from Hillsong Church in November 2020.
He was fired due to “moral failures,” the church’s founder Brian Houston said in a statement at the time. When Ranin introduced herself on the MTV show, she said people knew her as the former pastor’s mistress. She said:
I don’t like to be referred to as a mistress, I’m more like a mystery woman. I’ve been in toxic relationships. A lot of men sell you a dream. You know, I’m broke. I don’t need to buy any more dreams.
Later in the launch episode, her fellow contestant David Barta asked Karim about her previous relationships as the cast returned to their villa from a boat trip, which is when she detailed her affair with the former pastor. David told cameras:
Ranin definitely has the shadiest ex story. It made me pretty uncomfortable, seeing that my dad was a minister for 20 years. Like, ‘Hey my dad is a minster.’ ‘Oh, I just had an affair with one.’ Whoa.
Ranin is an icon, I stan already 😍🏝 #ExOnTheBeach

How old is the pastor?
Carl Lentz is 43, making him almost ten years older than Ranin Karim. He has been married to his wife, Laura, since 2003 and shares three children with her. The former pastor has since confirmed that he was unfaithful.
As per Daily Mail, Laura, uncovered the affair because Lentz had synced his iPhone messages to his iCloud. They now appear to be working on their 17-year-long relationship since his affair was revealed.
Born on October 12 1978, Laura is 43 years old at the time of writing. She lives with Carl and their three kids in a three-bed, three-bath home in Bradenton on the Manatee River, south of Tampa, which was purchased in July last year.
