Who is Ollie Williams and how old is he?

Ollie Williams is a 23-year-old land owner, who is the heir to the 2,000-acre Lanhydrock estate.

He studied criminology at Royal Holloway University and loves rugby, shooting and keeping fit in the gym.

Ollie describes himself as an alpha male. "Wherever I go, I boss the room, I boss whatever I’m doing. I’ll be the butt of all jokes but I’ll also be the one to make all of the jokes,” he says.

"I’m attention seeking and I like to be the centre of what is going on at the time. I wear my emotions on my sleeve, I’m upfront and let people know what I think of them too."

Who's Ollie going to be eyeing up in the Villa? Well, he's described his dream woman as being "blonde, athletic and funny" but said his celebrity crush is brunette Lily James so who knows what his type on paper really is!
