Who is Aaron Evans? Why the 'Love Island USA' Season 6 star quit a thriving real estate career
SOUTHSEA, ENGLAND: 'Love Island USA' Season 6 islander Aaron Evans is ready to embark on a journey of love and romance in a picturesque Fiji villa. Aaron currently works as a deckhand on a yacht. However, he previously worked in the real estate industry before transitioning to his current role.
According to his LinkedIn, Aaron earned a Bachelor's degree in Petroleum Engineering from the University of Portsmouth. Following his graduation, Aaron joined Tyron Ash Real Estate as a Real Estate Agent. He later served as a Client Director at another real estate firm.
However, Aaron ditched his thriving estate agent career to work in the cellar area on a yacht. In his first week on the job, he made waves by becoming involved with a stewardess, making it a memorable start to his new role.
Aaron is also active on Cameo, where he charges $1 for a text message and $25 for a personalized video. Beyond his roles as a fitness influencer and podcast host, he uses his platform to share life-changing advice on his podcast channel. Aaron's rise to fame began after winning the UK version of 'The Traitors' and later appearing on Channel 4's 'First Dates'.
Despite his previous successes, Aaron has chosen to avoid participating in the UK version of 'Love Island' and instead seeks American love, a decision that has stirred controversy. Even before the premiere of the Peacock show, Aaron is facing backlash for his involvement in the USA version of the dating show.
