“I would like [go on a dating show]… I don’t even know if I would like to keep it, guess I’d like to do as a bachelorette type show.”

Single people on dating shows are becoming increasingly popular; in 2023, dating show viewership grew by 15% (Statista, 2023).
Moving On and Moving Forward
In the past year, Evans separated from David Eason and later finalized their divorce. She has shared that she has learned what she wants and does not want in a partner. In order to celebrate this freedom, she threw a party in New York.
According to Evans, she is ready to move forward. She stated that she has been observing programs like “Love Island” and “Love Is Blind” to get some ideas. “It’s easier for me to cut off the guys, much easier,” she reported.
Evans thinks it’s a long shot to get on a dating show, but she realized it wouldn’t hurt to apply. She also mentioned the possibility of being excluded, but she seems confident that she could fit in.
When asked about the timing of her divorce, Evans stated that the decision should come when it is right for the person. “When the time is right, you should definitely celebrate because you go to happiness and peace and less anxiety in your life, and you can finally just be yourself without judge,” she said.
Given Evans’s past and her children, it will be interesting to watch her journey.
