TV Guide Online is reporting that Trista Rehn and her fireman fiancé Ryan Sutter "feel betrayed" over The Smoking Gun's public publication of the $1,000,000 contract they signed with ABC for the rights to air a four hour special of their wedding. "I don't care that people know the ins and outs of the contract," Ryan told TV Guide. "What bothers me is, someone was deceitful, dishonest and took advantage of us. We signed the contract and gave it to people who are working with us, so somebody sold us out." "I have no idea who it was," Ryan added mischievously, "but if I find out..."

Ryan insisted he and Trista aren't "slaves to this contract," despite the fact the the contract states that ABC has the final say on all wedding arrangements such as the location, wedding dress, flowers, etc. "We have a ton of input. They don't want an unhappy bride and groom! This hasn't limited the possibilities of our wedding, it's expanded them to things we'd never have if we did the wedding by ourselves."
Ryan then explains that in the big world of Hollywood, a million dollars doesn't even go that far. "I can understand people saying we're doing it all for the money," Ryan smiled. "It's $1 million, but there's agents and managers and all these people... When it's all said and done, it's not as much as people think. It's just a boost for us to start out with."
Sorry Ryan, but excuse us if we don't take up a collection for the two of you... best of luck with the wedding, but as far as "boosts" go, yours is already a Saturn V rocket.
