Eve’s current appearance on MAFS is a million miles apart from her old look which saw the star sport long blonde hair and an impeccable physique.
The tattooed star competed professionally in bodybuilding competition years before applying to find love on the popular programme.
Writing in an Instagram post at the time of competing, Eve said: “I just absolutely love looking at pictures from stage and feeling proud!! Been a long year…. Been an absolutely super one though.
“I’ve met so many great girls along that road and some have become my closest friends…
“I’ve got stronger mentally, physically and emotionally.
“If I have any advice it would be go and find something you love and give it your best shot because you really do get back what you give and i’ve realised this stage game makes me so happy and I never want to have a year I don’t put my foot on stage…”
Eve, 31, works as a lifeguard and fitness instructor and is hoping to find the love of her life on the show.
The 31-year-old from Omagh has admitted that she has been in love before and at one point was even due to get married.
Eve’s first relationship was with a man but, at 26 she realised she was gay.
Speaking about starring on the show, Eve said: “I want to find somebody that I fall in love with and I want somebody to fall in love with me.”
However, eagle-eyed fans have noticed she’s dropped a huge hint on Instagram she didn’t make it very far in the process.
Eve, 31, has been posting about having a girlfriend, sharing snaps of her holding hands with a mystery woman.
In contrast Eve has failed to mention the E4 show on social media.
Writing on Reddit, one fan said: “On Instagram she clearly has a girlfriend (look at her most recent post and comments), she has also posted nothing about MAFS at all.
Mafs couples that have stood the test of time
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam’s Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out – and excited for everything to come.”
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
“While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’
“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the show’s first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.”
“I have a feeling she may have dropped out of the show early as she doesn’t even acknowledge that she’s on it?”
And another said: “Thank you! Definitely strange. And that she’s openly posting about a gf.”
A Channel 4 spokesperson said: “Viewers will be able to follow Eve and Charlie’s relationship on screen over the coming weeks.”
