Eve Markoski-Wood and Ben Silvagni Split Amid Long-Distance Challenges

Eve Markoski-Wood, the 19-year-old daughter of Bachelor stars Snezana and Sam Wood, has revealed her split from boyfriend Ben Silvagni, son of AFL legend Stephen Silvagni. The pair ended their relationship less than a year after going public, with Eve declaring herself “happily single” in a recent Instagram post.

Social Media Hints at Breakup

Eve subtly announced the split while promoting a camera brand on Instagram. In a Q&A-style post, she answered “relationship status” with “happily single.” Fans quickly noticed she and Ben, 23, had unfollowed each other and removed all photos of their romance from their accounts. However, Snezana and Sam still follow Ben, hinting the split may be amicable.

Long-Distance Struggles

The breakup may stem from Eve’s move to New York City in August to study fashion at Parsons School of Design. Just one month after confirming their relationship, Eve relocated, leaving Ben in Australia. The distance likely strained their bond. Eve also shared a shocking $1,807.85 phone bill on Instagram, joking, “I miss Telstra,” highlighting her adjustment to life abroad.

Relationship Timeline

Eve and Ben first sparked dating rumors in July when they posted matching photos of each other with a dog at a Melbourne café. By August, they made their relationship public, with Ben joining Eve’s family for her younger sister Charlie’s 5th birthday party. Sam Wood later shared strict rules for Eve’s boyfriends on a radio show, saying they couldn’t sleep over and had to keep doors open during visits.

Ben’s AFL Legacy

Ben, a Collingwood VFL player, comes from a famous AFL family. His father, Stephen Silvagni, is a Carlton Hall of Famer, and his late grandfather Sergio Silvagni also played for Carlton. Ben’s sports career and Eve’s modeling ambitions may have added pressure to their relationship.

Eve’s Rising Career

Eve launched her modeling career on Instagram in 2022, gaining followers with chic photoshoots. She graduated high school in October 2022 and has since focused on fashion studies in New York. Her social media presence continues to grow, with fans praising her style and humor.

Snezana and Sam’s Love Story

Eve’s parents, Snezana and Sam Wood, met on The Bachelor Australia in 2015. Sam chose Snezana in the finale, proposing just six months later. They now share three daughters: Willow, 7, Charlie, 5, and Harper, 2. The couple remains one of the show’s most successful matches.

No Official Comment

Neither Eve nor Ben has publicly addressed the breakup. Daily Mail Australia reached out to Eve for comment but received no response. Followers speculate the split was mutual, given their busy lives and long-distance hurdles.
