How old is Paige from Love Island?
Paige is 24-years-old and grew up in Swansea in Wales.
On the outside world, the star works as a paramedic after she graduated from university.
Asked why she thinks she was single before entering the villa, Paige explained: “I came out of a relationship and I was just so done with guys so was like, ‘Right, that's it. I’m going to focus on me.’
“Then I was like, ‘Ok, I’m bored now, I’m lonely and I miss love and the connection and everything else.’ I’ve been on a few dates but I just haven’t clicked with anyone.”
This comes as 23-year-old Jacques continues to try and win over Paige after his Casa Amor antics and penned a long apology to her.
He told her: “I was in bed last night and I thought I wanna tell you, because sometimes I get flustered when we’re speaking so I just thought if I put it down for you, you might be able to listen to me.”
The rugby star then said: "The first day I walked in it's been me and you, from the first moment I seen you I thought you were beautiful to only find out you're as beautiful as you are on the outside as you are on the inside...
Love Island: Jacques chooses to couple up with Paige
"We get on like I've never got on with anyone in my life before, I literally see you as my best friend already and it's only been four weeks.
"I've never been so excited to take a girl home to meet my mum (I know she's going to adore you).
"We were going from strength to strength before I f***ed things up. If I could change it I really would but the damage has been done I know and I am so sorry for hurting you I would never want to do that again trust me, I am prepared to wait as long as it takes for you to forgive me because I know I do not want anyone else but you.”
