Speaking to The Sun, Indiyah said when asked who her dream Islander was: "I feel like maybe Ovie [Soko] because I love how he’s chilled and calm and easygoing.

"That chilled energy I love in a guy, and he’s got tattoos so…"

Basketball player Ovie starred in the 2019 series of the hit ITV2 show and finished third.

While Ovie won't be in the villa this year, Indiyah continued to discuss what she is looking for in the new batch of blokes.

She said: "I love a romantic man, easy going, funny, energetic. I’m looking for the opposite to me."

Indiyah added: "I’m a very easy going, easy to talk to person, depending on who I speak to might bring out my spicy side, might bring out my sweet side, it depends.

";I think it will take the right person to tone it down and change my ways [being a player], but what you see of me in real life is what you’re going to see in the villa.

"I'm an individual and not afraid to try new things. I’m quite adventurous. It’s in me, the star sign is Sagitarrius. Just trying new things and not being afraid to make that jump and step out of my comfort zone."

As for her red flags, she's not into "routine dancing on TikTok" or "really cringey jokes", and don't bother pulling her for a chat if you don't have manners.

"Someone who burps out loud, loud disgusting burps put me off completely and drive me up the wall," she explains. "Hopefully they’ll do it on the inside and not let me hear it because I’ll be sick."

Her own bad habits that might put off a potential love match?

"I might have to tone down my snacking," she laughs. "You might see me in the fridge a lot. I might have to be a bit careful with that one. I don't want to eat them out of house and home."

While Indiyah admits she is feeling a mix of nerves and excitement, she won't be losing sleep if she isn't picked in that all-important first coupling on night one.

"At the end of the day, if you don’t pick me it’s not my loss," she says confidently. "I’m there to find the love of my life and have fun and if you don’t pick me then obviously you’re not the love of my life."
