BECK: ‘JAKE WASN’T GENUINE’

-

After a rocky romance during her time on the experiment, bride Beck Zemek, 27, who is set to face some huge revelation­s at the reunion, dishes on her time on the show and marriage to Jake Edwards, 32.

How were you feeling going into the final dinner party and reunion?

It had been a while since I’d seen everyone, so I was excited to catch up as I made some great friendship­s on the show. The way I approached it is to be unfiltered and honest. How were you feeling about Jake at this stage of the experiment?

I left no stone unturned with Jake. I felt he wasn’t a genuine person, even outside the experiment, and never seemed to own his mistakes. I just couldn’t see myself being with someone who wasn’t authentic. I liked Jake as a person, but love is love and you can’t fake it – even if it does let the country down.

How would you describe the mood at the end of the experiment?

I think everyone learned that the faster the drama came out [at the dinner party and reunion], the faster we got to go home. It was very fiery, everyone was talking over one another and everyone was fired up about something with someone. It’s very heated. Do you have any regrets about taking part or how you’ve come across?

The worst thing about taking part is not being able to be myself and not connecting with Jake the way I would have liked to. I wouldn’t recommend doing MAFS to anyone unless they understand that there is a lot you’ll never see on screen and you may get backlash from your story being shown out of context. If I got to change anything, I would edit the show in a more factual light.
