Standing proudly beside her was boyfriend Duncan, 39, who looked every inch the leading man in a tailored Hugo Boss tuxedo, crisp white shirt and classic bow tie.
The chemistry between the duo was undeniable as they posed arm-in-arm, with Evelyn resting a hand on Duncan’s cheek in one loved-up snap.
Fans were quick to praise Evelyn’s transformation on social media, with many declaring she looked ‘absolutely flawless’ and ‘even more stunning than on MAFS.’
This year, like in the past, many MAFS cast members have been left off the official Logies guest list, something John Aiken says is out of everyone’s hands.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, John said: ‘It’s a privilege to be invited, but it’s completely out of my hands and out of the hands of the talent. Every year people are going to miss out, but you have no control over it.’
And even if the show did win a Logie, Aiken joked it would be risky to let some of the brides or grooms accept the award.
‘You’d have no idea what they’re going to say,’ he said with a laugh.
‘They’re very brave people who put themselves out there and I’m grateful to them for doing the show, but you never know what they’ll do once filming wraps.’

Aiken says that while the Logies may elude them, the show’s reach is undeniable.
‘It’s now in its 13th season and it just keeps growing. It’s sold into over 120 countries and it’s consistently high in the ratings here. We keep putting out a high-quality product that people respond to,’ John said.
Aiken admitted that despite dominating the ratings every year, the reality series has never been recognised with a win on Australian TV’s night of nights.
‘We have never won anything at the Logies,’ Aiken admitted.
‘But we’re pretty happy with the ratings that we have. At the end of the day it all comes down to who’s prepared to vote.
‘The shows that win usually have people who get online and vote. With MAFS, while we have a lot of committed viewers, they don’t seem to vote.’
Aiken said the team does not measure success by trophies.
‘We don’t do it to get a Logie, we do it because it’s fun, it’s exciting and a lot of people watch it. The real prize is the huge audience engagement we get every year,’ he said.
