Pete Evans reveals long ‘rat’s tail’ hairstyle in new photo of the disgraced celebrity chef

My Kitchen Rules is currently dominating the ratings for Channel 7.

But the cooking show’s former star, Pete Evans, is now living a very different life at his Evolve Sanctuary, located an hours drive inland between Byron Bay and Coolangatta in northern NSW. 

Also gone is Evans’ former clean-cut look, replaced by a flowing mullet that tapers out into a rat’s tail.

The hairstyle could be clearly seen in a Thursday Instagram post by Evans’ wife Nicola Watson.

In the black and while photo the disgraced celebrity chef could be seen patting a horse while showing off his own mane. 

Nicola captioned the post in part, ‘my beautiful husband Pete (he’s the handsome one with two legs in the photo) has also been a wonderful mirror, teacher & guide for me to navigate my way through the labyrinth of life.’ 

The couple swapped the limelight for a new age country lifestyle several years ago. 

Pete has assumed a low profile since he was dropped by 15 sponsors and companies in the space of 48 hours in November 2020, after posting a neo-Nazi meme on social media.

He has also faced a string of controversies over the past few years.

The once popular TV star has attracted scrutiny for peddling anti-vaccine conspiracies and being fined $25,000 for spruiking a light machine which he claimed helped cure Covid.

In May 2020, it was announced that Pete had parted ways with Channel Seven after 10 years as a judge on My Kitchen Rules alongside Manu Feildel and guest judge Colin Fassnidge.

It effectively marked his break from the mainstream after years of flirting with off-the-wall ideas during his tenure at the network.

Free from the contractual constraints of mainstream network television, Evans began spouting his non-scientific beliefs about vaccines and the Covid-19 pandemic on social media.

In July, 2020, Evans sparked outrage when he falsely claimed that Covid-19 was a ‘f**king hoax’ and that the pandemic ‘doesn’t compare to what is happening in the world on a large scale’.

In May 2021, he was slapped with a $80,000 fine for trying to cash in again on Covid by flogging more fake treatments online.

It was the second time he ran foul of authorities after previously being fined $25,000 for trying to sell his so-called BioCharger for $15,000 a time on Facebook.
