As if starring in trashy Love Island Australia and then having a baby with hot headed Married At First Sight contestant Cyrell Paule wasn’t terrifying enough, hunky Eden Dally has signed up for yet another reality show – and it’s left him “haunted”.
Speaking of a SAS: Who Dares Wins challenge that required him to climb over a thin rope suspended high above raging waters, the former Sydney prison guard, 28, tells Woman’s Day, “I do hate a sob story, but I once witnessed a man drowning in the ocean. I tried my best to save him, almost drowning myself, only to see that the young man couldn’t be revived. I hadn’t ever seen a person die in front of me. That moment, over the rope, it brought back those horrible memories.”
It’s certainly a far cry from his time on the dating series that made him a household name across the ditch.
“Love Island was all fun, sun and margaritas,” Eden grins. “It wasn’t a show that you really take seriously. Prior to SAS, I had been reading what my grandfather went through during his time in the war. I wanted a small taste of what he experienced.”
