Looking for love: Meet Adelaide’s most eligible singles

Wondering where all Adelaide’s good men and women are hiding? Why, they’re right here in our eligible singles guide!

Single and oh-so ready to mingle, these 10 guys and girls are among Adelaide’s most eligible bachelors and bachelorettes who are all looking to meet The One. Also single? You’re welcome.

RENATA LEONELLO

Her creative agency is called FLAME and it’s no wonder why, because this lady is one hot mama. Mama in the literal sense, that is; Renata’s mum to a soccer-mad son. When she’s not cheering him on, you’ll find her in the city at a bar in Peel or Leigh streets, or at her getaway on the Fleurieu Peninsula. Renata would love to meet a guy who is secure within himself and driven. Her ideal man will also know the importance of family and love travelling. Update that passport, fellas!

JAYNIE MORRIS

This lovely lady is like a ray of sunshine, which is why you’ll often find her running, or at the very least walking fast, along the esplanade between Henley and Brighton. The founder of SheroesUnlimited, a global community for women aged 50 and over, Jaynie is also a podcaster and author who loves a great cause and knows how to put the fun into fun-draising. For this glass-half-full girl, the perfect first date would be getting to know one another over a glass of Chablis while watching the sunset. Are you her dream man?

KATINA KOUKOUROU

Fellas, this is going to make your temperature rise: Katina is a GP and doctor in emergency medicine, who also happens to be the founder and director of Lifestyle Medical & Skin Clinic & Facial Aesthetics, which has branches here in Adelaide and in Western Australia’s Margaret River and Geraldton. A fitness freak who loves surfing and distance trial running, Katina also enjoys nights out on Peel St and Kind William Rd’s coffee scene. Mum to a 9-year-old daughter, Katina is looking for a man who is driven and fit, but also understands the challenges of single parenting.

Salvatore Copabianco

SALVATORE CAPOBIANCO

Ladies, here’s a bachelor who is heaven scent! Literally. That’s because Salvatore is the state sales manager for a perfume wholesaler. Part of his job includes taking trips to Europe to find fabulous fragrances, so he’s hoping to meet a woman who wants to share his love of travel. Salvatore’s dream date would include a leisurely drive to McLaren Vale to taste some fine wine and dine overlooking the picturesque vineyards. Cheers to that.

CASSANDRA MAMONE

If this lovely lady looks familiar it may well be that you’ve seen her on the telly – Cassandra was a contestant on fellow Adelaidean astrophysicist Matt Agnew’s The Bachelor.

She’s also famous for being a “jeweller to the stars”. Her beautiful bling has been worn by names such as TV host Carrie Bickmore, Power and Crows football wives Annabel Gray and Ellie Walker, and model Jesinta Franklin, who is married to Sydney Swans star Lance “Buddy” Franklin, just to name a few. While Cassandra didn’t meet The One on The Bachelor – or its spin-off series Bachelor in Paradise – she still believes in love. Her latest fine jewellery collection Dream A Little Dream is an ode to her parents’ epic love story.

Sia Kenihan

SIA KENIHAN

This gorgeous girl – who just happens to be signed with Finesse Models Australia – is the sister of the late, great Aussie icon Quentin Kenihan. Sia is back in her hometown Adelaide after living in Sydney, Melbourne, London and Vancouver. She also has a pretty impressive CV; Sia’s been a fashion stylist, flight attendant and had her own interior decor biz. Currently studying real estate, with a particular interest in selling luxury homes, she’s passionate about disabling advocacy, cooking and wine. Her “best bud” is pet pooch Bass, so, needless to say, her ideal man must love dogs (and be tall and handsome).

BARBRA BAMFORD

Adored for her great smile and amazing laugh, Barbara is known to be quite cheeky. When she’s not working at her hospitality job at the Marion Hotel, Barbara enjoys wining and dining at her favourite Lenzerheide Restaurant with family and friends. She would love to meet someone who appreciates her wicked sense of humour and have the last laugh together.

Markus Hamence

MARKUS HAMENCE

This jack of all trades has style in spades and a green thumb. A concert promoter who brings stars like Rhonda Burchmore, Renee Geyer and Bobby Fox to town, Markus shines in the charity sector – the Little Heroes Foundation is a cause that’s particularly close to his huge heart. Teaching interior design at TAFE SA, Markus is also an indoor plant whisperer. Naturally, he loves a stroll through Adelaide Botanic Garden, as well as live music and theatre. Markus says his ideal guy has a great work ethic, sense of fun, good communication skills, a solid connection with family and friends, and must love indoor plants.

HOLLY GIADRESCO

This career driven 26-year-old is a duty manager at the Marion Hotel and enjoys an active lifestyle. Outside of work you’ll find her at the gym, walking her dog and going out with friends. She describes herself as “joyously lighthearted”. After growing up with three brothers, Holly is looking for a partner with a great sense of humour, who wants to spend quality time with her. Boys, prepare for a fun adventure.

Alice O’Loughlin

ALICE O’LOUGHLIN

What’s not to love about this gorgeous girl, who just happens to own a wedding planning business – Alice Mary Events. When this qualified personal trainer isn’t running (see what we did there?) her biz, she does the bookkeeping for an accounting firm. Alice, who holds a Bachelor of Science and Masters of Commerce from the University of Sydney, lived in the Harbour City during her 20s. She loves living in Adelaide, and Port Elliot is her “happy place”. She has two fur babies, a groodle and a cavoodle called Henry and Ernie. She also loves sipping bubbles with the girls, watching Formula 1 on TV and going to Crows games. Hoping to find a special spark with her “person”, Alice says her partner will be a loyal, driven and kind man who values family. Like we said, what’s not to love.
