Angelista is currently working as a nurse, proving she's got a caring side to complement her show-stopping looks.

She's modest, describes her flirtatious style as 'in the middle' and is searching for a genuine connection in Mallorca, admitting to producers that she's going to make it her mission to land on 'the one'.

"Finding love is my goal," she said before jetting off to the Spanish island, adding: "I'll be in the mix, 100 per cent. I'm not watching in the back."

Although she might be driven when it comes to men, she's not interested in starting any cat fights with the girls.

She clarified: "I’m not here for drama, I'm non-confrontational. It’s entertaining to watch from the sidelines, I just don’t want to be involved in it."

When it comes to Angelista's type on paper, she after the classic "tall, dark and handsome", but has listed one thing that seriously gives her the 'ick'.

"Someone who wants to be in everyone’s face all the time," she explained, "centre of attention all the time, that’s an ick.

"Someone that’s obnoxious, I don’t like."

So what she does want? "A quietly confident man with nice teeth. Someone that is attentive, someone that is a listener and a doer.

"You can’t just be listening and not doing! Someone that puts actions behind words and is patient."
