Tom Clare Bio, Family, Height, Dating Status, Love Island

Love Island is because of the drama and vice-versa. And what better way to kick off Love Island 2023 than by leaving it up to the public to decide who will be the first bombshell to enter the villa? The ITV2 show announced the twist on social media, asking people to choose between semi-pro footballer Tom Clare and Business Development Executive Ellie Spence. At the end of the January 16th episode, Tom entered the villa as he won the public vote against Ellie.

The article below is all about Tom Clare, a bombshell who has already begun to stir up some trouble. Learn about his new stint at Love Island, dating status, age, job, family, and more.

Tom Clare On Love Island

Ahead of his Love Island entrance, Tom shared a few answers to the questions such as why is he still single, why is he on the ITV show, and many more.

Tom explained he signed up because he wants to “meet someone.” Adding to that, he said, “It’s good going out and having a laugh but I miss sharing stuff. Life’s too short. These opportunities don’t come around often.”

Regarding why he is still single, the Love Island 2023 star admitted that no special person has really come along since his last relationship. “Until I have that, I’m not really going to settle for less,” Tom said.

About what turns him off, Tom shared that “stuck up” people really give him the “ick.” To that, he added, “… another one for me is bad oral hygiene and a random one is ‘birthday make-up’ – you know when make-up is done professionally for an event and it’s just too much, like blue eyeshadow and stuff? Girls don’t need that..”

The semi-pro footballer described himself as “a good laugh, a good vibe.” “I’m not snakey, I don’t like that kind of stuff. If I’ve got an issue with someone I’ll speak to them,” Tom said.

Tom entered the villa at the end of Monday Night’s episode and in another episode, he got to know all the girls before picking who he wanted to couple with.

While talking to all the girls — Olivia Hawkins, Lana Jenkins, Anna-May Robey, Tanya Manhenga, and Tanyel Revan — Tom shared that he did not have any type. However, to the boys — Will Young, Ron Hall, Haris Namani, Kai Fagan, and Shaq Muhammad — he told that his preference is blonde women.

As expected, many fans of the show took to Twitter to share how Tom lied to his fellow Islanders about his type and no one seemed to notice.

To make matters more confusing, Tom coupled up with the 27-year-old brunette Olivia Hawkins at the recoupling ceremony despite admitting that Lana Jenkins was more his type.
