Married at First Sight Australia 2022’s Carolina Santos was met with hellfire after it was revealed that she didn’t want to be seen in Bondi with her TV groom Dion Giannarelli.
However, as with everything else on this show, there’s his side, her side and the actual truth, and according to Carolina, we didn’t get the full story.
In the third of a three part-interview with Yahoo Lifestyle, Carolina said that the worst “editing fail” centred around that fateful dinner party fight.
“So Dion really wanted us to go to Bondi, and I didn’t want to go with him to Bondi,” she told the outlet. “I didn’t want to bump into a friend.
“Because at that point, we were still in lockdown so people would go for walks; that’s all they could do.”
Carolina explained that she “didn’t want to bump into someone and have to explain” that they were filming a show and have them ask, “Who is this?”.
“How would I introduce you? A mate? It’s weird,” she added.
“So when they showed that conversation on the dinner table, I think it shows Dion saying, ‘She has that many followers, she thinks she’s famous, she doesn’t want to go to Bondi’. And then you hear me saying ‘Exactly’, and they took the ‘Exactly’ from a different conversation and it just sounds like I’m agreeing to it.” Frankenbiting on MAFS? Well, we never!
“I’m like, this is BS! But at the same time, it was funny. I just laughed at it like, oh whatever.”
The Producers Orchestrated Daniel Holmes and Carolina Santos’ Cheating Scandal
Like all good storylines on Married at First Sight Australia, the producers were the ones to egg on the budding romance between Carolina and Daniel Holmes.
During the second interview with Yahoo Lifestyle, Daniel revealed that the producers branded Dion an “idiot” and “encouraged” the couple to get together.
“They told us like, ‘You guys are doing the right thing! Jess [Seracino] left! Dion’s an idiot! You are doing the right thing!'” he said.
“Everything bad you do, they’re like, ‘Oh you’re doing perfect!’. They make you think that you’re doing the right thing.”
Well, well, well!
