From: Horsham
Occupation: Beautician and model
Why did you apply?: "My mum's a fan and she thought I'd be really good on it. It's something I've watched, and I absolutely love but not something I ever saw myself going on, because I never thought I'd have the opportunity. I thought 'I'll just apply for it', but I didn't take it too seriously until I got a bit further in the process."
What did you think of previous series?: "They were both really different. In the first series having three Faithfuls win was really good, and the second series it was really sad to see it be swiped away from Mollie! I felt sorry for Jaz - he really had everything sussed out, but Harry played such good game. I think he's the reason that anyone would want to be a Traitor, because he played the game so well. He was like a smooth criminal, he literally got on with everybody and no one suspected him until the very end. I preferred the second series I think because it was just unbelievable how he got away with so much!"
What is your gameplan?: "I've really thought about it and I've gone through so many different scenarios. The bottom line is, you never really know until you're there and you meet the other contestants. When you meet the other players they might be completely different to the series we've watched, and you'll bond differently with different people. It's about who you can trust.
"I want to be a Faithful, I find it really easy to get on with people, I'm always an easy talker, I have a lot of laughs, and I think I can adjust myself to different personalities. I won't be getting involved in any dramas, I definitely won't be a ringleader. If I suspect anybody, I will not be throwing their names out there because there's obviously a risk of being murdered and that's exactly what I don't want to happen.
"If I suspect a Traitor, I'd be sneaky and make friends with them and get on their good side, they'll think that I'm naive and want to take me to the end, then when I get right to the end, I can let loose! I think when players suspect things or people and start telling everybody, they're murdered in the next few days."
What would you spend the winnings on?: "First of all, I'd cry my eyes out. I'm such an emotional person - I cry at happy things because I just know how much it means to people. First thing I would do is take my family on holiday, we never all of us get together and have a nice break and I really want to do that. My sister's just had a baby so I'd take the children away, that'd be so nice.
"I definitely want to donate some money to the Childhood Eye Cancer Trust. They've done so much for me, they helped me when I lost my hair, they helped me get a wig. They've helped me with getting my perfect prosthetic eye which I'm so happy with. I've been so unhappy with previous prosthetic eyes and people wouldn't even notice now. I'm so grateful for them and I want to help the other children going through it. It's from the ages of zero to five and they go through so much at such a young age, it would mean everything for me to just give something back.
"With the rest of the money, I would love to invest in something and do something smart with it. I wouldn't want to just blow it all, I'm thinking of my future ahead with my baby and my boyfriend."
