Who is Mimii Ngulube? Meet Love Island 2024 contestant and mental health nurse
Girls' girl Mimii has made it to the final!
*Warning - Contains spoilers for Love Island 2024.*
Mimii did not have the easiest ride in the Love Island villa when the show reached its halfway point at Casa Amor, but she has come out the other end happier and with a man by her side!
Originally coupled up with Ayo Odukoya, the pair went through a series of tests - but when he returned from Casa Amor with Jess Spencer and left Mimii single, it proved to be a blessing in disguise.
At the beginning of this month, Mimii was taken on a date by bombshell Josh Oyinsan, and while at times his head looked elsewhere, it ultimately returned to Mimii - and they are both in the final!
During tonight's final (29th July), Mimii opens up to Josh, as she says: "You're attentive, kind, gentle and loving. Thank you for showing me the qualities that I thought were unrealistic in this day and age."
As her journey comes to an end in the villa, here's everything you need to know about Love Island 2024 contestant Mimii Ngulube.
