OCCUPANCY: Mental health nurse

WHY LOVE ISLAND? The pool in Portsmouth doesn’t matter. I tried dating, talking to people on social media, but it just wasn’t successful. Applying was spontaneous, I didn’t expect to end up here!

WHAT BRINGS YOU TO THE VILLA? My girls are my rocks and I am theirs so I will be a good friend and go out there to find a man. I like to dress up, so I bring style, and I like to think I’m quite funny so I’ll make people laugh. I also bring honesty – I’m good at noticing people’s personality traits and looking aside those who might be a liar.

WHAT DO YOU WANT THE ISLAND RESIDENTS TO KNOW? I have something very special about me which is my disability, it’s a condition I was born with called Ebs Palsy. It doesn’t define who I am, but it makes me a little different, even though I’ve learned to deal with it and it’s never held me back.

HOW WOULD FRIENDS/FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? My friends would say that I am the loudest person in the group, I am the one who is always up for a challenge, the life and soul of the party. My family would say I’m bossy and it’s always my way or the highway, they’d say I’m the boss.

WHY LOVE ISLAND? I’ve always been a believer in relationships and when you find someone you want to be with, it’s the best feeling. This is the perfect moment, the only thing missing is my soulmate.

HOW WOULD FRIENDS/FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? Very sweet, caring and thoughtful. I’m the kind of guy that if you break down on the highway and need to change your tire, I’m there at any time of the night.

WHAT BRINGS YOU TO THE VILLA? I think I would bring excitement and joy. I think people have someone to come to and talk to and feel comfortable around or laugh with. I think I’m someone that everyone would look forward to.

WHY SHOULD SOMEONE DATE YOU? I feel like the way I carry myself is very respectful and I think people accept that and once you show someone who you are, you get it back tenfold. The way I am radiates enough energy that people feel comfortable with me.

We met when I moved to Fulham in 2018.

OCCUPANCY: Retail manager

WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I don’t underestimate that I work hard. I know what I want and I am not easily satisfied. Being a loud, outgoing woman can sometimes intimidate men; men don’t always want that.

WHAT IS YOUR TYPE ON PAPER? I like a white set of turkey teeth, but I like a good set of turkey teeth. I would say personality traits, you have to be family oriented. You have to be tall, you can’t be shorter than me, I shouldn’t have to doubt whether I can wear heels around you and what height heels I can wear. If you have a vertical challenge, this is not for me.

WHAT IS YOUR TYPE ON PAPER? It looks plain, but humor is important to me, I’m a bit flatulent, so I want a girl who can give it back. Loyalty is another one for me, I think it’s the most important thing to look for in a relationship.

CLAIM T0 FAME? When I was in Malia on a lads holiday I pretended to be Liam Reardon from series 7 to get into a club because they wouldn’t let us in. It worked and we ended up getting a private booth and free drinks all night.
