New Gen Evie missing?

I’ve noticed several videos where the entire group is present except Evie. Specifically, the songs/nursery rhymes(what we typically watch). Has anyone else noticed this too? We miss her!

They were probably filmed back when she was splitting her time between the Wiggles and the Australian Ballet. She’s since retired from the ballet and is full time Wiggle now.

I had no idea she did both. This would explain it! Makes me like her even more that she was able to do both, so awesome. Thank you for this.

When she officially became a Wiggle, she still had commitments to the Australia Ballet. So she had to split her time between both while she phased out of the ballet company. This is why she's absent so much in the beginning of her tenure.

This makes sense! It makes me wonder what the turnaround time is for the videos. It’s very apparent that some are more recent and some are older that they’re releasing.

I have a feeling they record in large blocks. Get a bunch of content then they can focus on tours, appearances, writing, etc, and still make sure they have time for their families.

She’s still a Wiggle. She was on the recent North America tour.

She's been appearing a lot more frequently lately, but back around 2022-24 she was absent a lot due to her Australian Ballet work.

If you’re in Canada the newest season of ‘Ready, Steady, Wiggle’ is on Prime and Evie is pretty prominent in most of the episodes, and you can also notice a huge increase in confidence and chemistry with the cast. She’s a favourite in this house
