MAFS suffers yet another editing fail as a digital clock next to Rupert reveals a little-known secret about the commitment ceremonies
Eagle-eyed Married At First Sight viewers noticed a subtle editing fail during last Sunday’s episode.
One observant fan posted a screenshot of the scene in question on the MAFS AU subreddit along with an explanation of the mistake.
The scene showed Rupert Bugden getting ready for the commitment ceremony, which producers would have viewers believe is filmed over the course of an evening.
But the digital clock next to Rupert’s bed showed the time as being 9.45am, proving that filming actually starts as early as the morning.
‘This was Rupert getting ready for last week’s commitment ceremony. Note the time,’ the MAFS viewer captioned the screenshot.

Another Reddit user confirmed the commitment ceremonies and dinner parties are filmed over an entire day, but are edited to look like they only take place at night.
My co-worker was on this show a few seasons ago and he said for dinner parties in particular, they’ll get there at 11am and drink until 7pm then they will serve dinner,’ they wrote.
‘He said you’d be sitting there for hours and a new couple would come in every hour or so. They’d want to get you as drunk as possible basically.’
Another fan chimed in: ‘Past participants have said they start arriving around midday and are filming until the likes of 3am for the dinner parties.’

It comes after an episode of MAFS last month included another editing fail.
During Tayla Winter and Hugo Armstrong’s wedding, fans noticed the guest walking the bride down the aisle was wearing an earpiece in his left ear.
While the device was hidden, it became visible when he turned his head to the side while walking Tayla towards her groom.
Reality stars often wear earpieces during filming so they can receive instructions from producers.

MAFS fans earlier spotted another detail that indicated the show may be scripted.
Viewers noticed Harrison Boon grabbing the collar of his shirt and speaking to producers through his lapel microphone during the dinner party two weeks ago.
A slow-motion video of the moment was shared by the MAFS fan account @mafs.bachie.reality.
‘Harrison talking into his mic. He’s probably saying, “Get me the f**k out of here,”‘ read the caption.
Former MAFS contestant Jackson Lonie, who appeared on season nine, said it was more likely Harrison was just telling the producers he needed the bathroom.
