NANDOS waitress Liberty Poole has been revealed as Love Island’s third Islander.
The 21-year-old student from Birmingham studies marketing – but will be spending her summer searching for a boyfriend instead.
“I’ve never had that nice, happy relationship so I think it will be nice and something for me to experience,” said Liberty.
“Obviously I want the best summer ever because we have been in lockdown for a year so it would be nice to go away and enjoy the sun and make friends as well.
“I’m excited, I’m a bit of a social butterfly so I love to meet new people. I’m a girls’ girl as well so I can’t wait for the girly friendships. It’s going to be fun!
Revealing what she’s looking for in a romantic partner, the 21-year-old added: “So I like tall, alpha male, confident, a cheeky chappy sort of guy. But obviously that’s always usually combined with player types, which is where I go wrong.
“So I am trying to change my ways and go for more of a nicer guy that is going to treat me right.”
Working in Nandos, Liberty has seen her fair share of awkward dates unfold infront of her very eyes.
And she’s even been used by cheeky guys looking for a discount – and had a proposal from a customer!
Liberty added: “I’ve had people try and rinse me for a date at Nando’s, get the discount and stuff. But I’ve never had a date in one.
“I’ve had a few things happen at work. I’ve had a napkin shaped as a rose given to me which was cute, that was when I first started working there and then I’ve been proposed to. It was a bit unexpected!
“He was on his own, he’d come into the restaurant every week and he got down on one knee and was like, ‘Will you marry me?’.
“But in his hand, it was a charity support badge not a diamond ring or nothing.
“So I was thinking, that’s one way of saying I’m a charity case when it comes to love!”
