LOVE Island scientist Yewande Biala used to work for the company that makes Viagra.

Her LinkedIn profile boasts a range of skills she provided for the firm including updating “existing procedures” and utilising “computer applications”.

Scientist Yewande, 23, from Ireland, was a shock contestant amongst this year’s line-up due to her job.

She even admitted: "I’m a scientist, which is a unique job. I think people may be surprised.

“Every time I say that I’m a scientist, people are shocked. I think there are loads of intelligent people on reality television, last year we had Dr Alex and the year before we had Camilla Thurlow in the villa.”

Irish scientist Yewande describes herself as "easy to get along with, funny and caring".

When asked if she would ever steal somebody else's man by ITV producers, she admitted: "I don’t think I’d be that type — but never say never."

She admits she wants to meet someone in the villa with humour.

Yewande revealed: "Someone that I can hold a normal conversation with. Someone that has good banter and someone that is easy to get along with and honest.

"But looks-wise, I like them to be tall and athletic."

And unlike some of the men on this year's show, she insists she's been entirely faithful.

The beauty added: "I’ve never cheated on anyone but I’ve been cheated on multiple times. I feel like I am less trusting as a result of that. I think I’ll definitely have my guard up."
