Bella Hassan is the daughter of the well-known The Football Factory actor, Tamer Hassan, and has revealed the clear warning he gave her before she left for the villa, “He’s told me to be myself but has also warned me ‘I’m watching and I’m going to be seeing every detail!’”
Maria Wild works as a VIP host so knows exactly how to make a good first impression. She revealed, “I’m not a Maura. My approach won’t be to graft someone. I never graft anyone on the outside so I won’t go in there and be any different.”
Jourdan Riane has previously starred in a music video for Krept and Konan and thinks her energy will set her apart, “I’m all about energy and being positive and having good vibes. My energy and my vibrant personality is what could make me a good islander.”
Londoner, Joanna Chimonides, says she doesn’t mind causing upset to get what she wants, “At the end of the day…sometimes you might have t tread on toes but the same thing happens outside of the villa sometimes too.”
Air hostess, Nabila Badda, admits, “I can’t stand bad footwear. I don’t like shabby shoes, I think it says a lot about you.” With current islander, Jordan, already boasting of his shoe collection, it seems he could be a shoe in!
Last of the girls is Lavena Back who thinks asking permission to “crack on” with another islander is not her style, “if it’s a friend I’ll have a conversation before approaching the guy, but in the villa I wouldn’t as I don’t owe it to them.”
Moving on to the boys, first in line we have student, Stevie Bradley who has his hearts set on Lucie and is prepared to fight, “You can’t tread on eggshells around people, you need to get what you want so I’ll do whatever it takes within reason.”
Marvin Brooks, who has previously trained the likes of Harry Redknapp, shares the same cutthroat philosophy, “I’m quite selfish and if I feel like I can get someone that I want, even if it hurts another guy, I will go for it.”
28-year-old Ovie Soko, rates himself as an international 8 which is sure to give him a chance with all the girls, “Some people call themselves a 10 but you can be a 10 in one place and go to the opposite side of the world and be a 4.”
Following from this, Dan Rose, who is a bathroom salesman, rates himself as a confident 10, admitting, “I should be modest and say 9”. But like Ovie says, this figure might not be so accurate in every region.
Making a beeline for Anna Vakili is Essex boy, George Rains. He claims, “I never meet the right girls…I’m hoping I’ll have better luck meeting them in a different environment to a nightclub!”
Lastly, a guy to pick Maura’s spirits right back up again could be Dennon Lewis who enjoys a feisty lady. He admits his main fault is he is, “not great in the mornings” but that could all change with a new routine with consists of relaxing under the Majorcan sunshine.
