WHY ENTER THE VILLA? I’m single and looking for love, and it’s the perfect opportunity for me to find someone. I’m kind of a relationship girl, but so far it hasn’t worked out for me.

WHY THAT WITH ME? I’m really caring, when I’m with someone I’m all for them. I am also very loyal and love to do nice things for the people that are special to me. My love language is gift-giving, so I’m a real giver when it comes to relationships

WHY LOVE ISLAND AND WHY NOW? I think it’s the ideal timing and the perfect way to find someone.

I don’t go out to party and I don’t use dating apps, I’m actually quite old fashioned so there’s no better way to meet someone than by entering a villa in the sun with the potential ‘one’ in there.

ARE YOU READY TO FIND THE ONE? Yes. I’ve been busy with work and my master’s degree for the past few years, but now I’m done with the busy schedule and ready to find love.

WHY SHOULD SOMEONE DATE YOU? I thrive on being a gentleman. I shower you with flowers, I take you on dates, I fill your bedside table with your favorite candies and chocolate. I’ve been single, I’ve had fun and now I want to settle down.

WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I’m just really picky. I need to find the girl I want to marry and have kids with. I’m almost 27, I don’t want to play the field anymore, I want to find the one.

ACTIVITY: Aesthetic practitioner

WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? Because every boy is scaring the hell out of me right now. I feel like it’s fate because I’m saving myself from Mr Right in the Villa!

WHAT GIVES YOU THE ICK? If a man stunts for money, that’s an ick. Showing off all their designer clothes because most of the time they are probably fake anyway! Another is when a boy runs to the train and the train goes without him. Lunch boxes too – just go to Tesco and get a meal deal!

WHAT DO YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I am charming, I bring good looks and some language lessons. I’m going to teach the other islanders Portuguese, Spanish and a little Creole. I think I have every piece of the pie.

DO YOU FALL IN LOVE QUICKLY? I’d say I’m falling too fast to be honest. When I look at beautiful ladies, before saying hello to them, I have already fallen in love. I’m already planning the wedding.
