Jess White
Age: 25
Location: Stockport
Occupation: Retail Manager
Jess explained before heading into the villa that she thinks she's single because: "I don’t underestimate the fact that I’m hard work. I know what I want and I'm not easily pleased. When you’re a loud, outgoing woman, sometimes it can intimidate men - men don’t always want that.
"I think that can sometimes put people off me because I am quite loud and you can hear me before you see me. Some men love that though."
Jess went on to say that the main things that will catch her eye are nice teeth, a family orientated man and a tall man!
Ayo Odukoya
Age: 25
Location: Canning Town
Occupation: Model
Ayo revealed he's a bit of a homebody, explaining he doesn't really like being outside too much: "I’ve been outside recently and it’s not fun outside! I do prefer to be indoors chilling with that person I can do stuff with. It would be nice to have that with somebody again."
The model went on to say that what makes him a catch is how respectful he is.
"I think people take to that and once you show who you are to somebody you get it back tenfold," said Ayo, "The way I am gives off a good enough energy for people to feel comfortable around me."
Harriett Blackmore
Age: 24
From: Brighton
Occupation: Dancer & Personal Shopper

From: Hertford
Occupation: Sweet Salesman
Admitting he's always been a relationship kinda guy, Sean said he's missing his soulmate and hoping to find her on Love Island!
Describing what makes him a catch, he said: "5’11, tall, dark and handsome. Not quite 6 foot. Great smile, great teeth, great arms and abs - the full package."
