Who is Jessy Potts?

“I also have a very sarcastic sense of humour so I’ll make everyone laugh,” she said ahead of her appearance. “But I’m a Sagittarius so I also have a fiery side and not afraid to say what I think or stand my ground. I’m not very good at taking no for an answer.”

Jessy sees herself as quite different to the Islanders, describing herself as “the girl next door but with a bit of an edge”.

How old is Jessy Potts?

Why did Jessy sign up for Love Island summer 2024?

Jessy sees Love Island as a great opportunity and experience and is hoping to meet someone as she is “very single”.

She explained: “It now feels like the perfect time and there are so many successful relationships formed on Love Island, so I’m hoping I’m lucky enough to find someone. Love Island genuinely works, you can list a lot of couples who have gone on to get married and have children.

“I’m hoping I thrive in the villa as I love a holiday romance or a work fling, so it should be fun.”

What does Jessy look for in a partner?

When asked what the most important traits she looks for in a partner are, Jessy said she would be interested in someone who is confident.

“I’m confident and usually the centre of attention but I’d like my man to be able to walk into a room and be the person that everybody wants to talk to,” she said.

“They have to be funny, laughter is key. I’m also drawn to ambition, I find a man with drive very attractive.”
