Asked what he’ll bring to Love Island, he said: “Just myself – Dami Hope!

“I don’t know if I will cause trouble, I’ll try not to cause trouble but sometimes you don’t intentionally cause trouble – but it happens!”

As well as brains and good looks, Dami said he brings his Aries passion to any relationship and always puts his partner first.
He shared: “When I’m actually in a relationship, I think it’s a star sign thing, I’m an Aries but I’m very passionate – I always used to put that person first.
“If they had something they wanted to do or something they were passionate about, I’d make sure that even if it’s something I’m not talented at I’d get talented at it just so it helps them.
“I’m really good at being in a team and actually looking after each other.”
