First Dates viewers have their heart strings pulled every week at the participants emotional stories, but last night's episode left viewers praising one dater for her bravery.

When beauty therapist Eve Betts greeted her date Jordan, she was initially wearing a long black wig, but after plucking up the courage to tell her date that she suffers from alopecia, a condition which causes hair loss, Eve bravely removed her wig at the table.

Showing his appreciation for Eve's natural beauty, Jordan admitted he thought she looked beautiful, leaving viewers at home loving the pair together.

Viewers of the show were quick to heap praise on Eve for her bravery...

However it wasn't the end viewers were hoping for when Eve declined Jordan's offer for a second date, despite him being so lovely.

It wasn't all bad news though, the love was quickly restored in Fred Sirieix's restaurant when daters Jonathan and Krystle entered the building.

Hitting it off immediately, fans of the show were left ecstatic when it was revealed at the end of the show that the couple went on their second date to Paris!

It was later announced the pair are three months into their new relationship and going strong! ❤️
