A woman who appeared on ABC's Wife Swap has accused producers of manipulating footage of the swap.
Nancy Cedarquist moved in with the Oeth family for an episode of the reality show, but refused to stay overnight. Instead, she claims that ABC allowed her to move into a luxury hotel and drove her to the Oeth family's home for filming to take place.
"I really thought reality television was more real than it is," Cedarquist complained after filming for the show.
Producer Wendy Roth is quoted by The Sun as saying, "There is a certain amount of poetic license."
