I want Maura Higgins to enter Love Island – I love her personality and way she looks!

2023-06-03

Love Island star Mehdi Edno is one of ten singletons heading to the iconic ITV2 villa this summer in order to find love.

The communications manager, 26, who splits his time between Bordeaux, France, and London, is hoping to find love in the Love Island villa this summer.

And describing his ideal woman, Mehdi is looking for someone who is "outgoing", "unapologetic", "ambitious" and "fiery", joking: "I like to be in trouble!"

Asked if there's any past Islander he'd love to see return to the villa as a bombshell after former Islander Adam Collard returned to the 2022 series, Mehdi has his eye on someone…

Speaking to press, including OK!, Mehdi said: "If I could bring back one person it would be Maura [Higgins]. Definitely, I love her personality and the way she looks. Yeah, she would be ideal."

Elsewhere, Mehdi talked about his application to the hit ITV2 dating series, admitting his parents were initially "a little bit worried" about him joining the villa.

He said: "At the start, my parents were in the beginning a little bit worried because this is not something they know.

"But honestly, I have the most supportive parents and friends – they are rooting for me. They just want me to win now and find love!"

Talking further about his friends' reaction to getting on Love Island, he added: "They couldn't believe it at first because, you know, it's a big show.

"And obviously, I'm not from the UK, I come from France. So they were like, 'f**k', but they're so excited. They're so excited. So happy for me. And they are supporting me like 100 per cent."

Elsewhere, Mehdi talked about his plans for after the villa.

He said: "To be totally honest with you, I love my job. My manager told me that the door was open if I wanted to come back after the show, which relieved me before leaving.

"I'd love to start, you know, a career in the entertainment industry, whether it be fashion or I'd love to be a presenter one day."

Love Island starts on Monday 5 June at 9pm on ITV2.
