Here's everything you need to know about Love Island 2023 bombshell Charlotte Sumner.
Back on our screens for another year, summer Love Island 2023 already has us hooked.
Beginning on Monday 5th June, we’ve already seen contestant George Fensom named the first hopeful to be dumped from the villa, after a brutal recoupling on Friday evening.
The rest of the cast are still in the fledgling stages of their new relationships - with more than enough drama to keep our eyes glued to the TV!

Alongside fellow contestant Leah Taylor, 30-year-old Charlotte Sumner entered the villa on Sunday 11th June.

"I’m up for anything too; they’d say I’m adventurous," she adds.

Why did Charlotte sign up for Love Island summer 2023?
Admitting that it’s her lengthy list of requirements in a man which has led to her still being single, Charlotte says it was her loved ones who convinced her to take the plunge and sign up to the dating show.
"Friends and family kept telling me to apply for Love Island, so I thought, why not?" she says. "The age I’m at and the experiences I’ve had, I feel ready to meet my Mr Right."
What is Charlotte looking for in a partner?
Charlotte is looking for a man who ticks all her boxes - but, more specifically, she admits: "I need to be sexually attracted to them but they also need to be kind-hearted and laid-back."
However, they do have a niche ick to contend with - novelty costumes!

"[I hate] when guys do fancy dress and they’re dressed up as a piece of toast or an old woman," Charlotte laughs.
Admitting she is a "slow burner" when it comes to falling in love, Charlotte’s dream housemates in the villa are quite a random bunch.
"I would have Jamie Dornan for eye candy, someone geeky like Harry Potter, and my last one would be Paddington Bear, I love him so much," she explains. "For my ideal date, I’d want something cute like a picnic with all my favourite snacks… he could actually invite Paddington Bear for a marmalade sandwich!"
