'I felt disgusted (when I first saw the edited version) and I was so upset. Then I received so much hate,' she said in tears.
'For them to paint me as this nympho, it was disgusting. I feel so let down.'
Jackie then quizzed the makeup artist further, saying: "Matt is obviously innocent, a virgin. You guys slept together on the honeymoon and a few episodes later it came out that you had been a lesbian in the past and what if I was into swinging or threesomes? And everyone was like, whoa, where did that come from?"
"Yeah, they made it look like they partnered this virgin with someone that is, sex freak," co-anchor Beau Ryan added.
Lauren agreed, "They made me look like the bad guy in the relationship."
"So, I just want to clear this up, because firstly anyone who watches reality TV surely they understand that it is not real life. It is not reality. Producers will go to extreme lengths to tell a story and they will edit you and manipulate you in any way that they can to tell that story. I deserve to tell my side."
"With the lesbian thing. Initially my answer was "at 18-20 I had a bad experience with a guy and I just hated men as a result. So, I only dated women"."
"I was like, I am not OK with that. I don't want to use that word, I don't label myself as a lesbian. It didn't feel right."
"You all saw what Matt was like, he never really stood up for me. So, it was like all of these men against me. They will literally say to you 'we will keep you here all day until you say it'."
Other bombshells also include Lauren claiming that Matt clearly suffered from "mental health issues".
In a multiple private conversation, he had told his wife that he felt "he did not fit in on this earth."
She recounted his words: "I've been abducted by aliens and they've done something to my brain because my brain has been rewired differently. My brain hasn't been the same since I was 15."
She admitted that "it really concerned him".
