Ted Cruz's presidential primary campaign was filled with many awkward moments and it followed suit to the bitter end Tuesday as Cruz accidentally hit his wife in the face after calling his campaign quits.

After Cruz made his announcement, he turned and hugged his wife, Heidi. Then his father then walked over to console him.

But as Cruz turned into the embrace from his father, he ended up hitting Heidi in the face and followed it up with an elbow to the nose.

Eventually, the three just finally hugged it out.

Cruz officially dropped out of the race Tuesday after losing to current Republican frontrunner Donald Trump, who took most of Indiana's 57 delegates.

In other odd Cruz news, earlier in the day, Trump suggested that the Senator's father, Rafael Cruz, had been seen with Lee Harvey Oswald just before President John F. Kennedy was killed.
