Sam and Snezana Wood’s daughter Eve Markoski and her new boyfriend Ben Silvagni have finally gone public with their romance during a cosy outing on Friday.
Model Eve, 19, first sparked rumours she was dating footy star Ben, 24, last month when they appeared to be enjoying a romantic date together in Melbourne.
Ben, who is the son of AFL legend Stephen Silvagni, then joined Eve’s family for her younger sister Charlie’s fifth birthday party in a sign things were setting serious.
Now, the couple have finally been spotted together during their first public outing as a couple, where they put on a very loved-up display during a walk in Melbourne.
Confirming their budding romance, Eve was seen lovingly brushing her hand against Ben’s face at one point as they proved they are going strong.
For the outing, Eve cut a laidback figure in a black jumper and navy tracksuit bottoms, which she styled with a black padded jacket and beige slip-on boots.
Ben looked equally as casual in a navy zip-up jumper and black shorts, which he teamed with a pair of white trainers.
Eve appeared in jovial spirits as she laughed and joked with Ben, who had joined her on the sunny morning to walk her beloved dog.
Sam and Snezana Wood ‘s daughter Eve Markoski and her new boyfriend Ben Silvagni finally went public during a cosy outing on Friday
After weeks of romance rumours, the couple have finally been spotted together during their first public outing as they were seen putting on a loved-up display during a walk in Melbourne
They put on a cosy display as they walked closely and doted over each other while enjoying hot drinks on their stroll.
Their outing comes after Eve’s mother Snezana hinted at her daughter’s new romance by sharing a picture of Ben in a gallery of family photographs.
The TV star took to Instagram last week to share a gallery of snaps of her and her husband Sam celebrating their daughter Charlie’s fifth birthday.
Ben made a low-key appearance in the post as he was seen patting their beloved pooch in one candid picture with Eve and her three younger sisters.
The sportsman was seen grinning as he played with the dog, while Eve sweetly smiled on as they unveiled their budding romance.
Eve first sparked rumours she was dating Ben by sharing a snap of the Collingwood VFL player to her Instagram Stories last month.
The content creator posted a shot of Ben looking out into the distance while sitting at a café in Lygon St, Carlton and holding a dog.

Ben also posted a similar image of Eve embracing the pup at the café to his social media as they appeared to be hinting at their romance.
Ben is the son of Jo Bailey and AFL legend Stephen Silvagni, who played for Carlton and is regarded as one of the greatest ever full-backs to play the game. His late grandfather Sergio Silvagni also played for Carlton as a ruck rover.
In 2022, Sam confirmed Eve was dating a footy star and shared the strict rules he must follow in their family home.
He revealed on Fitzy & Wippa’s radio show that Eve’s boyfriend isn’t allowed to sleep over while they must keep the door open during his visits.
‘It’s new…[Eve] dropped a bombshell. He is a really nice fella. Full forward in the footy team,’ Sam said.
Eve, who Snezana shares with her first husband, launched her modelling career on Instagram last year, not long before she graduated from high school in October.
It is not known how long Eve and Ben have been dating, but her father Sam previously told how she was dating a footy star back in 2022
During their first public outing together, the couple kept things low-key as they didn’t hold hands but avidly chatted away to each other
