Days Of Our Lives Ill-Fated Romance: Brady And Eve
"Days of Our Lives" viewers know that some couples stand the test of time and are simply meant to be. Pairings like Bo and Hope Brady, Steve Johnson and Kayla Brady, and John Black and Marlena Evans are three prime examples of supercouples who are the loves of each other's lives (via Nine). Meanwhile, other Salemites have been as fortunate when it comes to romance. The sudser has also given fans many characters who are perpetually unlucky in love.

However, Brady Black may be the character that has had the most turmoil in his romantic life, and fans have loved all of the drama along the way.
Brady and Eve's love lives have been disastrous
Brady Black is one of the most popular characters on "Days of Our Lives." Fans have watched Brady grow up over the years as the son of John Black and stepson of Dr. Marlena Evans (via Soap Central). While Brady had a heartbreaking childhood without his biological mother, Isabella Toscano, when the character was aged into adulthood, the real drama began. Brady's love life has been at the center of many storylines over the years, starting with his first serious relationship with Chloe Lane. Since that time, Brady has also been in steamy romances with the likes of Theresa Donovan, Kristen DiMera, Nicole Walker, Melanie Jonas, Arianna Hernandez, and more.
However, one of Brady's most controversial relationships has been with Eve Donovan. Eve is another character who's had a very messy love life. Eve has been involved with many men over the years, such as Jack Deveraux, Deimos Kiriakis, and even her daughter's much younger boyfriend, JJ Deveraux, per Soaps in Depth. Eventually, Brady and Eve found their way to each other during a time when Brady was going through a dark period in his life.

Brady and Eve were engaged for a short time
"Days of Our Lives" fans know that Brady Black was once in love with Theresa Donovan. However, Theresa was forced to leave Salem to keep Brady and their son, Tate, safe. Brady believed that Theresa abandoned her family and was devastated, per Soaps In Depth. Theresa's older sister, Eve Donovan, returned to Salem to help Brady raise Tate in her sister's absence, and she and Brady began to have feelings for one another. The couple fell in love, and Brady even asked Eve to marry him. Sadly, the pair never made it down the aisle (via Soap Dirt).
When it was safe, Theresa returned to Salem to reunite with Brady and Tate. Of course, she was stunned to find that Eve had moved in on her man. According to Soap Hub, Theresa fought Brady for custody of their son, and things got heated. Eventually, Brady allowed Theresa to have custody and even let her move to California with Tate to be with her parents.
Soon after, Eve found out that Brady and Victor once conspired against her to frame her for the murder of Deimos Kiriakis (via Soaps). Eve dumped Brady, and the two went their separate ways. The relationship ended up being another failure for both Brady and Eve.
