Being in a penthouse at the top of The Gatwick with all those stairs saw Jess Eva drop two dress sizes on The Block, but the laid-back Queenslander is the first to admit she hasn’t kept off the weight.

“I used to feel really insecure about my body. I hated my nose, I thought I was fat, that my bottom was big. I hated my toes,” Jess, 34, says.
