Career

Eve Franke’s career as a YouTube personality began in 2015 when her mother, Ruby Franke, launched the family vlog channel “8 Passengers.”

The channel documented the daily lives of the Franke family in Utah, featuring Eve and her five siblings, and highlighted aspects of parenting, homeschooling, and family activities.

Quickly gaining popularity, the channel amassed around 2.5 million subscribers and over a billion views by 2020, with Eve becoming well-known among the younger children featured.

As the channel grew, it also faced increasing scrutiny and controversy regarding the family’s disciplinary methods.

In 2020, viewers raised concerns after videos showed harsh punishments, such as Eve’s brother Chad being forced to sleep on a beanbag for months.

Additionally, Ruby’s strict parenting style, including an incident where Eve was sent to school without lunch and told to face the consequences, sparked allegations of child abuse.

These concerns led to investigations by child protective services and a public petition, though no initial substantiated abuse was found.

The family’s public image further declined after Ruby Franke separated from her husband in 2022 and began collaborating with controversial figures promoting extreme parenting views.

Ruby’s original channel was suspended, and new content fueled ongoing concerns about the children’s welfare.

This culminated in the arrest of Ruby Franke and her associate in August 2023 on multiple counts of aggravated child abuse related to the treatment of the Franke children, including Eve.

Following Ruby’s guilty plea in early 2024, the “8 Passengers” channel remains inactive, and the family has largely withdrawn from the public eye.
