His dating status states he was in a long-term relationship with a girl at the age of 14 but they broke up 18 months ago.

Mr Murphy said he is looking for a “brunette who is fun, not rude, polite and extremely lady like”.

“I’m such a respectful man with a huge heart, and I am genuinely looking for the girl of my dreams,” he said.

“I want to put her on a pedestal like she is the only girl in the world.”

Adam Farrugia, 27, is a tanned, tatt-ed up tradie who calls himself a mummies boy.

The Gold Coast commercial plasterer and model admits he hasn’t had a proper girlfriend for longer than six months and is looking for someone “not from the Gold Coast”.

“My dating history is dismal. I’ve never really had a proper girlfriend,” he said.

“You always need the token tattooed funny guy.”

Mr Farrugia had applied for the American version of Love Island too.

Love Island Australia 2019 airs on Monday October 7.
