Eve Gale may have been unsuccessful in her quest to find love on Love Island: All-Stars, but it seems that romance has now blossomed outside of the famous villa.
Eve, 24, has revealed that she is now dating ex-TOWIE star Demi Sims and a source has told
new the pair are getting on like a house on fire.
“Eve and Demi’s date may have come as a surprise, but they’ve been texting a lot behind the scenes,” the source said.
“They quickly realised just how much they liked one another and the attraction took off from there.
“It all started as a friendship and it’s allowed them to grow naturally. They know each other well and are always giggling and laughing. Everyone around them is pleased to see them happy.”
Eve, who found Love Island fame in 2020 alongside her twin sister Jess, was a guest on the Squared podcast that Demi hosts with her sister Frankie, when Demi spoke about their budding relationship.
“Me and Eve went on a date last week, for anyone watching, and it was our first date, wasn’t it?” said Demi, 27.
Eve replied, “We kind of had other dates, but it’s not been a date date. That was like our first date. I had the best time.”
Demi admitted she was “nervous” that things might turn out to be awkward during the meal at upmarket London restaurant Amazonico.
However, their date went even better than they could have expected.
“I was thinking, ‘Is there going to be any awkward silences?’ Then when I picked you up, you were chewing my ear off. I actually didn’t get a word in,” Demi said to Eve, adding that many people assume they are “besties” rather than dating.
Eve said she only had eyes for Demi, and added that she wouldn’t go on a date with another woman.
The source said, “Eve’s had a bit of a rough time in the past when it comes to relationships – in particular men – and didn’t find what she was looking for on Love Island. She was tired of being messed around.
“Demi has been a good friend and they hit it off.”
Eve has also provided support for her fellow reality TV star. Demi and Frankie, 28, have been at odds with their big sister Chloe, 42, for months now. And although the reason is unclear, it has undoubtedly taken a toll on
