'I absolutely love my job'

The brunette stunner, who was a front liner worker during the coronavirus pandemic, says she loves her job way too much to ever leave it behind even is she does find success in the future. She explained:

Absolutely, I will one thousand per cent go back to being a paramedic. I absolutely love my job. It gives me everything I want from a job. I'm too much of a people's person to not go back to something like that.

Keeping calm under pressure

When asked how she went about having to quit her job to get on the show, she explained that she did not give nearly as much notice as she should have, hinting at possibly having annoyed her boss. She said:

Not in advance, probably nowhere near enough time as I should have given them but because you don't find out until really close to the time if you get it.

And added:

I didn't want to risk my chances and start saying stuff beforehand. I think I gave them like three weeks' notice and it just left it all up in the air because I didn't give enough time.

Finally, she also believes that her job will give her the edge needed to get through the entire competition level-headed and stress-free as she is used to dealing with high pressure situations. The Love Island hopeful said:

I definitely will not be giving free mouth to mouths to anyone that's for sure, but the skills as a paramedic are keeping calm under pressure. I'm very good at that. But playing it cool under pressure, I don't know if I'm very good at that. You'll have to see
