Rachel Gilmore, a bride from “Married At First Sight,” recently revealed an amusing editing oversight after her memorable introduction on Monday’s episode.

During the broadcast, the 35-year-old caused a stir when she erupted into laughter right after meeting her groom, Steven ‘Steve O’ Danyluk, 34, at the altar.

Her prolonged laughter appeared to leave Steven visibly uneasy, creating an awkward moment.

However, there’s more to the story, as Rachel highlighted a significant editing mishap that sheds light on what truly happened.

In a conversation with Pedestrian.TV, Rachel noted that the footage alternated between shots of her with a bouquet and without it, indicating that her laughter was actually pieced together from various clips.

“The laughter was a lot, to be honest. It was obvious it came from different moments because my flowers were there,” she clarified.

Married At First Sight bride Rachel Gilmore has pointing out that her bouquet disappeared and reappeared during her eyebrow-raising laughing fit – indicating the scene was spliced together using different clips 

Monday night’s episode saw Steven, a softly spoken marine technician from Sydney, marry warm-hearted Melbourne bride Rachel in one of the season’s most awkward and emotionally charged weddings.

Rachel, who has been single for 14 years and previously spent seven years in a situationship that left her feeling hidden and unchosen, arrived at the altar visibly nervous, breaking into fits of laughter as soon as she saw her groom.

While the moment appeared light-hearted on screen, cracks soon emerged.

Steven failed to compliment Rachel on her appearance at the altar or during the early part of the reception, leaving her quietly hurt and questioning whether he found her attractive.

The issue eventually surfaced in an emotional conversation, with Steven apologising and reassuring Rachel that he was attracted to her, a moment that helped soothe years of built-up insecurity.

Speaking to Daily Mail after the episode aired, Steven revealed just how overwhelmed he was on the day and why he froze in that crucial moment.

‘It was very surreal, daunting, confronting and super sweet,’ he said of watching the episode back.

‘It brought back memories of the actual day. I loved it.’

‘The laughing was a lot. I’ll be real. It was very clear it was from different parts, because my flowers are there,’ she told Pedestrian TV

Steven admitted that before Rachel even appeared, his nerves were already at breaking point.

‘I was nervous as anything. I was about to hit the deck,’ he said. ‘I was breathing heavily, my heart wanted to be on the outside, my mouth was dry.’

He revealed he had rehearsed the perfect introduction repeatedly in his head.

‘I was going over it, thinking, ‘Hello, my name is Steve. You look beautiful. How are you feeling?” he said. 

‘And I screwed it all up.’

When Rachel walked down the aisle smiling and laughing, Steven said it instantly threw him. 

‘The laughter happened almost immediately before I could even say hello,’ he said.

‘At the time I thought, ‘Oh dear God, what’s going on here?”

While Rachel’s laughter eventually helped calm his nerves, Steven admitted his mind briefly went to a dark place.

‘For a brief moment, I started to think, ‘Is she laughing at me? Is this a joke? Is this match a joke?” he said.

‘That’s just my silly head running wild, but it did go through my mind.’

Steven said years of dating rejection fed into his anxiety, along with a fear that Rachel’s smile would vanish once she saw him.

‘One thing I had going through my head was, what if she has this big smile, and then she looks at me and it turns into a frown?’ he said.

‘That was playing on my insecurities.’
