Love Island’s Jess White is poised to make a big impression on the villa’s male contestants, all thanks to her mum’s advice.
The 25-year-old shared how her mother insisted on a shopping trip to pick out some seductive lingerie to improve her chances of finding love on the show.
Jess explained: “My mum said I needed to get some sexy underwear as mine wasn’t great, so we went shopping. It was wild. Who does that with their mum?! She was saying, ‘That’s a showstopper, that’s the one. That’s a Hideaway outfit’.”
So will we see Jess take advantage of the saucy Hideaway? She admits: “Mum warned me not to do anything naughty in there. To drive the men wild – but make them wait.”
Jess is among 12 stunning singles entering the Mallorca villa tomorrow, with Maya Jama returning as host.
Confident M&S manager Jess, from Stockport, Cheshire, is excited to show off her skimpy bikinis. She revealed: “I’ve had a boob job so they’re very good! It was the only insecurity I had. It improved my confidence by miles.”
Jess is seeking a strong man who won’t be a pushover, as she found her previous boyfriend too accommodating.
“I’d find it sexy someone putting me in my place,” she admits. “I’m an only child so I like things my way. I need somebody to be like, ‘No, you’re not doing that’, or, ‘Right, we’re doing this’.”
Determined to find Mr. Right, Jess is prepared to ruffle some feathers. She said: “I’ll be straight-talking. Sometimes people won’t like that. It could get me in trouble if I’m getting involved in someone else’s drama.
“I don’t have any loyalty to them. You’re there for you, at the end of the day, and you’ll never get the opportunity again. Sometimes, that might upset the girls. If they [the lads] are really fit, it’ll be hard to say no.”
When it comes to her biggest concerns about being on the show, Jess is most worried about the heart rate and talent challenges. She said: “I’m talentless and my friends will tell you I’m so stiff when dancing. My friends said they’re going to cringe when they see that on TV. I mean, I’ll have a laugh with it. But I’ll tell you now – it won’t be sexy. I’ll probably fall over. It’s going to be quite tragic.”
