Who is Eva Marcille? Eva Marcille is a model and actress best known for winning the third cycle of “America’s Next Top Model” in 2005. Eva Marcille, previously known as Eva Pigford, announced in August 2013 she’s having a baby with singer-songwriter Kevin McCall, and the first-time mother-to-be is over the moon with joy. As Eva Marcille told BET, “Being able to bring a life into the world is every woman’s dream but for me it’s more than just a dream it is a magical, mystical journey which I get to share with this amazing man.”

Who is Eva Marcille? Once, the question would have been, “Who is Eva Pigford?” as that’s the name the Los Angeles native used when she first arrived on the scene as a cast member on “America’s Next Top Model.” Born on Oct. 30, 1984, to an African America mother and Puerto Rican father, this stunning beauty changed her name once she became known as an actress. “Marcille” is both her middle name and a mash-up of her grandmothers’ names, so it’s makes sense—and it sounds a heck of a lot better than Pigford.

But even when Eva Marcille was known as Eva Pigford, she didn’t let that iffy surname keep her from achieving great things. After winning “America’s Next Top Model,” Eva appeared on the covers of “Women’s Health,” King Magazine” and “Essence,” among others, and she’s done ad work for AppleBottoms and Covergirl, according to the Fashion Model Directory.

But who is Eva Marcille? She’s more than just a pretty face—she’s a serious actress, and her TV credits include “The Young and the Restless,” “Rip the Runway” and “Let’s Stay Together,” and as UsMagazine.com reports, she’ll appear on season 2 of “Real Husbands of Hollywood.” “My life continues to be a bundle of incredible experiences,” she told BET, suggesting the answer to the question, “Who is Eva Marcille?” is “a woman who’s got it all.” “I get to do this incredible show on BET and I get to be a mom and live this amazing life that God has bestowed upon me. Who could ask for anything more?”
