Sharon Gaffka

Age: 25

From: Oxford

Occupation: Operations lead at the Department for Transport

Quote: "It's been a bit of a running joke between my friendship group for a while that I should apply, probably because I'm the most outrageous one out of the group. But also because of COVID and the lockdown, I'm the only single one in my friendship group. They're either married or planning on getting married. I don't want to be the only one in the group chat that is single anymore!"

Aaron Francis

Age: 24

From: London

Occupation: Luxury events host

Quote: "I need someone that is passionate about what they are doing - from scientist to anything - you can tell when someone is speaking about something and they are actually smiling while they are talking. I love that. I don't like when people are doing a job just to make money and then they kind of just live for the weekend. Especially because I work on the weekends."



Liberty Poole for Love Island S7© ITV

Liberty Poole

Age: 21

From: Birmingham

Occupation: Nando's waitress and marketing student

Quote: "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!"



Hugo Hammond for Love Island S7© ITV

Hugo Hammond

Age: 24

From: Hampshire

Occupation: PE teacher

Quote: "I've actually played cricket for England PD (Physical Disability). I've been to Bangladesh, Dubai, I've been everywhere to play cricket. I was born with clubfoot. I had lots of operations when I was a kid. You can only really tell when I walk barefoot. I've got a really short achilles heel. I walk slightly on my tip toes."
