During Perfect Match Season 3, Madison Errichiello's journey sent viewers on an emotional rollercoaster. She came into the show with new optimism following a challenging season 8 of Love Is Blind, and she found it in Love Is Blind: UK's Freddie Powell. Their relationship swiftly emerged as the season's high point.

However, fans were not given the whole narrative when the finale aired. Madison shared viewers' confusion at being abruptly removed from a compatibility challenge. Soon, Freddie and fellow competitor Lucy Syed were the subject of rumors. The whole story was revealed by Madison in a recent interview with Elite Daily.

She called the finale "weird" and emotionally distancing. Although she maintained that she and Freddie had a genuine and strong bond, long distance proved to be an obstacle they were unable to get past. The details that editing and conjecture obscured were clarified by Madison, who also confronted the rumors head-on. Her candor helps audiences understand what occurs when reality TV storylines and real life combine, as well as life beyond Perfect Match.


Finale disconnection -- Madison explains what really happened on Perfect Match

Madison clarified that it was strange to witness the Perfect Match finale. Her genuine bond with Freddie was not reflected in the sudden turn of events in the compatibility challenge.

She disclosed that important moments that anchored their relationship, such as poignant dates and handwritten letters, were lost in the editing. This explains why, in contrast to what she witnessed firsthand, the TV finale would have seemed disjointed.


The impact of the finale twist

Not everything was captured in the final behind-the-scenes challenge. Madison talked about how the abrupt exit caught him off guard. She and Freddie failed the quiz, which was akin to the "Newlywed Game," on the grounds that their "first kiss on camera" wasn't, in fact, their first.

She pointed to the show's editing for cutting off significant emotional moments, saying, "It felt strange… like it wasn't the full picture."

Madison added that they had handwritten notes and a scavenger hunt date that never aired, containing information that would have deepened their relationship. This instance demonstrates how emotional facts can be misrepresented by intentional editing.


The truth about Freddie rumors & long-distance challenges

After Perfect Match Season 3, there were rumors that Freddie was seeing Lucy Syed, his co-star. Madison denied having a romantic relationship.

“Freddie was my safe person in that house,” she said. While he and Lucy remained friends, there was no romance.

The real problem soon became distance. Manchester-based Freddie experienced the stress from 4,000 miles away.

“It just became apparent that it was more of a friendship," Perfect Match star Freddie reveals in another interview with Elite Daily.

Their eventual separation resulted from the inability of what flourished in the villa to adapt to actual life. It would have been unfair to both of them to try to force it.


Conclusion

Madison's thoughts on Perfect Match highlight the distinction between reality TV and the real world. Her relationship with Freddie was not accurately shown by the finale's sudden ending. The story became even more hazy due to social media rumors.

However, Madison's candor in pointing out errors in editing, correcting the record, and recognizing the constraints of long-distance communication provides crucial background. Beyond the drama and conjecture, her sincere desire for transparency, clarity, and personal development, both on and off screen, is ultimately what comes through.


Fans can binge the entire season 3 of Perfect Match on Netflix.
