“There isn’t a me without a you.” <\/p>
There was a big question mark<\/a> hanging over Humphrey and Martha\u2019s relationship as we headed into the Beyond Paradise<\/a> finale.<\/p>\n Their plans to start a family were once again on hold following a failed round of IVF, leaving Martha emotionally spent. After one too many heartbreaks, she had had enough, deciding that she no longer wanted to have children.<\/p>\n Humphrey did his best to hide his devastation, conscious of adding insult to injury, but Martha\u2019s no fool and insisted that the detective tell her how he was really<\/em> feeling.<\/p>\n His response was painfully honest.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s not a switch I can turn off,\u201d he responded. \u201cI\u2019ve tried. I can\u2019t. I\u2019m sorry. I want to tell you that I\u2019ve come to terms with it, that I\u2019m happy, that it doesn\u2019t matter. But you\u2019re right, it\u2019s not how I really feel.<\/p>\n \u201cI might be able to one day, I don\u2019t know. But right now I can\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n After thanking him for his candour, Martha made another heartrending decision: their wedding was off.<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t marry you like that,\u201d she said. \u201cHow can I ever believe you\u2019re happy, that you won\u2019t come to resent me? This will always eat away at us. I can\u2019t do it to you, and I can\u2019t do it to myself.\u201d<\/p>
