Priya Jaswal is a business development manager from Surrey whose main goal is to find love while in the villa and isn’t looking for any drama.

When it comes to handling the competition int he villa, Priya plans to go for what she wants and won’t be faking anything to please people.

She explained: “My face tells a story. If I’m not feeling something, it’s going to be quite obvious. If the person I fancy is coupled up, I feel like I would go about it in a respectful way but I’d definitely shoot my shot.”
