WHAT IS YOUR CLAIM TO FAME? I’ve been in a music video for Headie One and Burna Burna Boy and I was an extra in World War Z once. I was 12 years old when I filmed it and met Brad Pitt, which was cool.
WHY SHOULD SOMEONE DATE YOU? I am the whole package, I know what I want in life and I have a big heart.

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 will be the energy in the villa, many guys have pretty faces and nice bodies, whatever I have, but I also have the sparkling personality, I’m a bit of a firecracker
HOW WOULD FRIENDS/FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? Funny, sparkling and good to be around. I’m also a bit cheeky.’

WHAT DO YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I’m a very laid back guy and I’m completely myself 100% of the time. I am quite simple and never have trouble making friends, I like to take care of people.
WHAT GIVES YOU THE ICK? I have two and they are both very stupid; Bad handwriting – I have terrible handwriting so they should have better handwriting than me and twerking, I really don’t like twerking!

ACTIVITY: Musical theater artist and social media creator
WHY LOVE ISLAND? 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.
DO YOU HAVE ANY CLAIMS TO FAME? With my social media job, I’ve had great opportunities to go on press tours and even been to the ‘Love Island’ villas in Majorca and South Africa. Having the experience of walking around both has been amazing, but to actually live in the Villa now will be incredible.

ACTIVITY: Entrepreneur
WHAT DO YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? Good vibes, I can be really crazy and funny but I can also go deep. It depends on the person and the situation, but I am a very flexible person, I know how to read the room.
DO YOU FALL IN LOVE QUICKLY? Real love, no. I can fall in love, but I don’t fall in love easily. My big thing is trust, I have to trust you completely before I can give you my heart. I’m not giving you my heart for free, you have to earn it.

ACTIVITY: Account manager
WHY ARE YOU EXCITED TO ENTER CASA AMOR? I feel like I’m turned on because a lot of people in relationships aren’t completely safe. I also know what type of person I am, so I feel like I can turn heads. I will not be disrespectful and I am proud of my morals as a person. I’m very confident that I can go in and not necessarily shake it up, but open the eyes of the ladies to what could be a better couple.
HOW DO YOU PLAN TO TURN PEOPLE’S HEADS? I already have a top three in mind so I’ll probably pick them up for chats pretty soon and let them know these are the top three people I want to speak to. But I am convinced that I am a people person, I do not go there to behave differently from how I am with my own friends. I support myself that people will see that and see my good looks and bish, bash, bosh.
