Meet love island scot alima gagigo

LOVE ISLAND IS BACK FOR ITS 12TH SEASON NEXT WEEK AND ONE SCOTTISH SINGLETON IS HOPING TO FIND LOVE IN THE SUN THIS SUMMER 15:51, 03 Jun 2025Updated 16:03, 03 Jun 2025 Scotland's very

own Alima Gagigo is hoping to find love on this year's season of Love Island. The 23-year-old graduate hails from Glasgow and is swapping the rain for the Majorcan sun this summer as

she heads into the world's most famous villa in a bid to find romance. The lineup for the 2025 Love Island cast was revealed earlier today (Tuesday), and Alima hopes to follow in the

footsteps of the likes of gym boss Anton Danyluk, radio host Laura Anderson and singer Paige Turley, Scots who have all appeared on the ITV show throughout the years and captured the hearts

of viewers. Self-proclaimed flirt Alima will be entering the villa this year in the hopes of finding her very own Prince Charming. The islander describes herself as a "good flirt"

and reveals she has a go-to tactic when chatting up guys in clubs and bars across Glasgow, which she hopes will translate to the villa. She revealed, showing off her typical Scots sense of

humour: "I always ask guys on a night out to guess which country I’m originally from. If they get it right, they can get my number. Article continues below "But they never guess

correctly so it works really well if you don’t want to give a guy your number." Alima was bred in Glasgow and born in West Africa, as she went on: "I’m originally from Guinea

Bissau. If they’re close and I really fancy them, I’ll give them my number anyway." The Scottish beauty revealed she likes "a tall man with a handsome face" and said her type

on paper tends to be "Disney Prince". She went on: "You know when you just look at a guy and they have that Disney prince look to them? That’s it." Singleton Alima has

brains as well as beauty, as she studied at Glasgow Caledonian University from 2019, graduating with a BA Honours in International Business in July 2023. When she was studying she worked at

Quiz, the high-street fashion retailer which was founded in Glasgow, as a store assistant. Since graduating, she's been working as a wealth management client services executive. Outside

of her professional life, Alima boosts over 6.5k followers on Instagram - a number which will no doubt grow after her stint on the show. On her Instagram page, she shares snaps from all

across the world, having posted photos from holidays in Malta, Lisbon, Mykonos, Paris, Ibiza and Morocco. She enjoys a glamorous lifestyle and is no stranger to a bikini, living it up on

holiday as she has previously posted a photo of herself at Wayne Lineker's famous Ocean Beach Club in Ibiza - as well as other beach clubs in Marbella and Mykonos. And Alima must have

made an impression on the Ibiza club owner, as Wayne also follows her on Instagram. _JOIN THE __DAILY RECORD'S WHATSAPP COMMUNITY HERE_ _AND GET THE LATEST NEWS SENT STRAIGHT TO YOUR
