Love Island’s Harriett branded a ‘golddigger’ as she boasts about unusual job ‘spending rich men’s money’

LOVE Island fans have branded upcoming contestant Harriett Blackmore a ‘golddigger’ - days before the next series is set to begin.

The popular ITV dating show will be returning for another outing on Monday.

In the meantime, the identities of the sexy singletons heading to the villa have already been revealed to viewers.

Among the new contestants is 24-year-old Harriett, a dance teacher from Brighton.

However, a promo clip of Harriett shared by the show’s X account left fans have describing her as a “golddigger”.

Explaining in the video, Harriett said: “I also work in luxury retail, doing luxury shopping.

“I have VIP clients. I basically shop around and spend all of their money.

“A lot of clients are rich businessmen, exactly my type.”

Mentioning she sometimes has a “little flirt” with clients, she added: “Well, all the time.”

One unimpressed X user wrote: “Can we not have a strong, independent girl for a change? Someone who could actually be a role model for young women", while branding Harriett a "golddigger."

Another added: “So she’s a GOLDDIGGER then.”

While a third commented: “Send her in a premier league football player and she’ll be sorted.”

Elsewhere in the clip, Harriett revealed she has “been single for four months now” while describing herself as “very high maintenance.”

She added: “If you ask my friends, they would definitely say I’m the life and soul of the party.

“I’m always the one dancing on the tables.

“I can talk for England - I feel like some people say it’s a bit much, but I don’t care.

“My next boyfriend would need to give me all the maintenance that I need.

So, good luck to my next boyfriend.”

Last series of Love Island saw Jess Harding and Sammy Root named the winners, with more than 30% of the final vote.

Meanwhile mental health nurse Mimii Ngulube, who will be starring alongside Harriett, has revealed a secret link to a former Love Island finalist.

The next series of Love Island will premiere on June 3 and for the first episode only, it will air on ITV1, ITV2 and ITVX.
