Nights with Olivia

Talking to The Sun, Olivia revealed that she has a special condition that she didn’t tell the show bosses. The 27-year-old ring girl said it could be embarrassing or entertaining for Islanders and the viewers as she confessed, she sleep-walks and talks.

Olivia admitted:

Ooh so I haven’t told the producers this yet, but I do sleepwalk and sleep talk.
I’m just hoping that I don’t do it! Because that could be quite embarrassing, or entertaining, we’ll see.

Recalling the time when she took a shower in her sleep, Olivia expressed her excitement about what this special condition might bring for her on the show. She said:

I had a shower in my sleep once. Obviously, it woke me up, but yeah my mum said, 'What are you doing it’s 2am? I said, ‘I’m getting ready for school.’
So we’ll see what happens!

Famous interests

This comes after the boys in the villa would anyway have to work hard to catch her interest. Reportedly, Olivia has been at the receiving end of admiration and flirting from the EastEnders hunk Max Bowden.

The 28-year-old soap star had been getting close to Olivia after he followed her on Instagram on New Year’s Day. Olivia returned the favour as she clearly ‘fancies’ him and the two had been getting closer, reported The Sun. A source revealed:

Max and Olivia have been sharing exchanges and keeping an eye on how each other has been doing.
She has been very impressed that Max showed such a keen interest in her and has been telling all her friends excitedly about it.
She clearly fancies him. They’ve been growing closer.
