Official BBC SurvivorUK 3 bio excerpts (10/14/23):

"What made you want to be a contestant on Survivor? I have always loved the show alongside all other survival shows since I was a kid. I was so excited when I saw it was coming to the UK. I want to go on the show for my late parents and to prove to myself that I am so much stronger than I thought I was. This is a complete game-changer for me, I am ready to change my life and fill it with adventure and challenge and this is the first stepping stone to get me there. I am ready to leave behind the troubles and grief of my past and prove that anyone can turn around any dark experience. You always have more in the tank than you think you do, and I am ready to show that! I want to be a massive inspiration for anyone who has also experienced deep loss and sadness.

What qualities did you think you’d bring to the game? I’m a disco dynamite London babe, always up for a good laugh and can brighten up a group with vibes, singing, twerking, a cartwheel and laughter! I can also bring a calmer side and enjoy talking about spirituality and grounding anyone in a stressful moment. I am a good mediator of people in arguments and recognise that keeping a positive mindset will get you a long way, nothing is impossible when you believe in yourself! You don’t always have to be the strongest person in the group, you just need to be able to know how to use your body.

How did you prepare yourself mentally and physically for taking part? To prepare I have watched every season of Survivor and I read FBI interrogation persuasion techniques and body language books to give me the upper-hand. I also lived in the woods for four days learning all the basic bushcraft and survival skills which was WILD. From my real life I already had a lot of general resilience and life skills to get me through the show.

Did you have a strategy of how you were going to play the game? Find my ride or die and take them to the end with me. I have also noticed that people react well when I share my life experiences and spiritual wisdom with them. I also know that people like it when I feed into their egos! So I hoped that a little sweet talking would get me a long way.

How competitive are you? Definitely 8 or 9 out of 10! I have always been a sporty person my whole life and it’s impossible not to be competitive. I love a challenge and I love the glory that comes with winning... I am an Aries after all.

What kind of challenges were you most looking forward to? Anything to do with balance I knew would be good for me being a professional roller skater! Any of the physical challenges involving water I knew I would be really good at as I used to be a swimmer and high diver growing up.

How did you cope with living on a beach with no home comforts? I was in my element. I loved waking up on the beach and watching the sunrise every day, meditating and breathing in how beautiful the stars were at night - they were BEAUTIFUL. It was so incredible to be that immersed in nature. The tarantulas and snakes in the bed were a bit much and the hornets were massive, they definitely kept me up at night, but in general I would just get into bed when it got dark and didn’t get out till the morning.

How did you cope with the hunger? It was hard but once we had fire and food regularly, I managed to cope okay. Better than most of the boys who turned seriously savage for food. It definitely caused a lot of tension in camp when people were hungry.

What did you learn from being on the show? I totally aced it! I crushed those crazy physical and mental challenges like a boss, and it turns out, my limitations were all just in my head. My self-imposed bar was already sky-high, but now it's off the charts! No more limits, baby! I'm all set to take on any challenge that comes my way, with a whole new level of swagger and resilience. Hard work pays off man. I am so so proud of myself."
