The fact that reality TV shows edit various contestants into 'roles' should surprise precisely no one by now.
There's the narrator, the 'wifey' and of course, no matter the show, the 'villain'.
Married At First Sighthas a lot of 'villains'. Some are very much justified because... you can't... justeditBryce into Bryce, ya know?

Another of 2021'sMAFSvillains was bride Jaimie, who had a short and not-at-all sweet stint on the show after being matched with her fake-ex-husband Chris.
Like so manyMAFSrelationships, their fake marriage didn't go too well. They made it through one commitment ceremony, before calling it quits literally a day later.
Chris alleged Jaimie told him that the only reason she wrote Stay at the Commitment Ceremony was to save face.
He brought up how Jaimie only asked him to "stop being so nice because you're making me look bad" on camera, and Jaimie was horrified because yep, this made her look really, really bad. She called him a liar and Chris stormed out.
And that was that.
Well, not really.MAFSmay be over but the drama never sleeps.
Jaimie has previously hinted about being unhappy at herMAFSportrayal in various Instagram posts, but she hasn't done much media.
After leaving the show, she addressed a few things in a photo caption, saying her 'handwashing' comments were a bad joke, rebuffing her 'princess' portrayal and claiming she did not ask anyone to fake anything.
Now, Jaimie has apparently broken her contract to give areallylong, two-part interview with gossip pod So Dramatic! to share 'the truth' about her experience on reality TV.
In total the two eps are nearly three hours, which is... a lot, especially considering she was on the show for precisely a week. It's a really full-on chat, and clearly cathartic for Jaimie to share her side of things as a way of putting it behind her.
In the interview, she shares her side of many of her most memorable moments on the show.
Her first appearance onMAFSwas at her wedding to Chris, which was automatically... not great. She criticised his hair and a number of other things early on, which became an ongoing storyline.
"I think watching it back I was probably just as shocked as the people that were watching with us," she explained of her wedding day episode.
"There're things that I did say, so coming down the aisle when I said 'uh oh, the hair', I meant it, because you know he hadn't yet turned around and first impressions are exactly that. You see someone and you're like 'oh my god', but a haircut doesn't make a person so the fact that that kinda got turned into this big storyline is ridiculous."
Jaimie said her comments after their vows, such as those about not usually liking nose rings, were due to being asked certain questions by producers.
"I honestly said nothing bad about Chris on the wedding day at all and I think that I felt like the producers were pissed at me for not saying enough and not causing enough drama... they asked questions in a certain way to then be able to frame it differently. So when I said 'I'm not a nose ring kind of girl but you know, that's fine and I'm glad he could be how he is', they can easily cut that too 'I'm not a nose ring kind of girl'."
