What is Love Island's Harrison looking for in a girlfriend?

Harrison has said: "I need someone who is fiery and got a bit of an attitude. I don’t want someone boring in the corner. I want someone who has got a bit of substance and voices their opinion.

"Confidence, being family oriented is a big one for me and someone who is ambitious, too."

And on who he's got his eye on in the villa he said: "Personality is a big thing, so it depends who I vibe with in there."

What has Love Island's Harrison said about relocating?

When addressing whether he'd be okay with a long distance relationship, since he lives in Florida, he said: "I’ve done long distance before so it’s not really an issue for me."

But he added: "I don’t know if or when I’m going back to America. But that’s not an issue. If you like a person you’ll make it work."

And unlike Toni who said dating in America sucks, Harrison has said: "I do really like American girls. Their personality is slightly different, in general they’re more confident and go for what they want. But I like a challenge, I like a bit of the chase."
