The bombshell says friends would call her a “party animal” and says she has been single for almost a year and a half.

"I think I’m going to bring positive energy,” she says, “I’m a very positive person. I’m a Cypriot girl and I love being in the sun. I’ve got nothing to lose!”

Antigoni has more than 34,000 followers on Instagram already @antigoni. She is the daughter of television presenter Tonia Buxton, who hosts My Greek Kitchen on the Discovery Channel.

The 26-year-old is also rumoured to have been linked romantically with previous Love Island contestant Jack Fowler.

She says she is a “fierce friend” who is very loyal and protective.

But Antigoni said: “In life generally I am quite competitive. It’s not my intention to tread on anyone’s toes but if I feel the energy from somebody and that connection then in a very open and honest way, I will explore that but I’ll be transparent with everyone in the situation.”

Antigoni has not revealed which boy she has her eye on in the villa but she says men who are stingy give her the ick.

She said: “I’ve only ever been in love once - I don’t think I’ve been in love since. I think I fall in lust and infatuation quickly.”

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub

Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox
