People aimed their questions at 2026 groom Joel, who has been active in the subreddits, and obviously, was there in the room during filming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHi Joel, I\u2019ve seen u on Reddit \u2013 can I ask u a question?,\u201d one person said. \u201cAlthough not televised, did Alissa and David speak to the experts on the couch at the final ceremony? And did they rip her a new one????\u201d Another person said: \u201cVery strange production choice! Nobody asked for that! Everyone wanted closure on Alissa and David.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joel then confirmed there was a sit-down with the couple, but the show \u201cchose not to air it\u201d. The groom said: \u201cYes. They got on the couch and that was the first time I saw the real Alissa. I was shocked and disgusted how she treated David. Duno why they chose not to air it. I also can\u2019t really remember what the experts said, probably knowing them they let the woman get off with a slap on the wrist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He later added: \u201cThe real Alissa was the one you saw at the final dinner party basically tell Dave \u2018Ew get away from me\u2019 after he begged for her love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joel also hinted further about what was shown. When another commenter said they thought Alissa had come across \u201cb*tchy\u201d on the show, he replied: \u201cExactly.
