David is 24 years old and is from Essex
David is a 24-year-old money adviser from Essex. He is on Love Island hoping to meet someone that he can bond with and is really excited to get to know the Islanders. Speaking with ITV before entering the villa, David said he hopes to bring “good vibes and energy” into the villa. Honestly, is there an Islanders who wants to bring something else?

He says he is a really good judge of character
Every Islander has an unusual skill they claim to have, and this time round David says he is a good judge of character. He said: “I’m a really good judge of character. I feel like I can read someone. I haven’t got any qualifications for that but…”
David is still single because he is very picky

There’s no harm in being picky, but there’s no time in Love Island so David may have to pick up the pace when it comes to choosing his person in the villa. David said: “I haven’t met the right one yet. The person you’re going to meet is never going to be perfect, but I’ve got my standards.”

People who sing along to songs badly gives him the ick
When asked what gives him the ick, David said girls who sing along to songs messily, especially if it’s Wonderwall. It’s understandable David may not be keen on that seeing as he revealed he loves to sing, but will never do it in front of people. I guess we’ll have to wait for the talent show!
Love Island 2023 continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX. For all the latest Love Island news and gossip and for the best memes and quizzes, like The Holy Church of Love Island on Facebook.
