CHARLIE: I GAVE UP RUGBY FOR THE REALITY SHOW
Charlie has taken a big risk by ditching his rugby career to appear on the show, having just represented the country at the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games. “I was on the verge of leaving rugby anyway and finding out what else I wanted to do,” says the 22-yearold sportsman-turned-model, insisting he’s not on the show for fame. “I want to go in this direction, so now it’s time to find out if I enjoy it.”
MILLIE: I DATED NEW BACHELOR THE HONEY BADGER!
Girls on the upcoming
The Bachelor won’t be happy to learn funloving Millie, 24, went on three dates with “The Honey Badger” Nick Cummins before he started filming the show. Clearly it didn’t work out, and now she’s looking for a serious relationship. “It’ll be a chance for guys to see another side to me, not just someone who jokes around all the time,” she says.
NATASHA’S BAD BOY BACHIE HOOK-UPS
The blonde bombshell, 23, has partied with the likes of Justin Bieber – and has also dated some bad boys from our own shores, including
Bachelor Blake Garvey and Bachelorette contestant Blake Colman. “I’ve been on so many dates, but I can’t find someone I have a spark with,” Natasha tells Woman’s
Day. She may have been looking in the wrong places!
EDEN SETS HIS SIGHTS ON EX-BACHELORETTE SOPHIE MONK
Lock up your daughters – ladies’ man Eden has landed! The 25-yearold law enforcement public servant says if he fails on Love Island, he’s ready and willing to take out the show’s host Sophie Monk. “I love her. She won’t be single for long if I don’t find anyone on the show,” he laughs. “I think we’d be good together.”
ERIN: WHY I GOT MY BOOB JOB
“I need professional help to find love,” says Erin, who’s currently studying nursing. The brutally honest 22-year-old – who appeared on Beauty
And The Geek in 2013 – is happy to show off her new boob job, which she had done after breaking up with her cheating ex last year. “He told me not to get one and said guys don’t like big boobs. Two months later I had them done!” she reveals.
