'Megan is a gorgeous girl, she's funny, and right now, couldn't be unluckier in love, making her the perfect Islander. 'Comparisons to Maura are inevitable and if anything, Megan will see it as a huge compliment.' Ahead of the show's return on Monday, June 9th, Clarke opened up about the type of man she's looking for in the villa. Megan Forte Clarke 'Someone who doesn't take themselves too seriously and has a sense of humour. If they're not bad looking, that's always a plus,' she said. 'I love a boy that's a bit pasty, like Timothée Chalamet. I don't mind scrawny, or a bit of a 'dad bod'. 'I'm 5ft1 so any height really.'When asked about her 'claim to fame', the theatre lover said: 'Me and my friends made a Derry Girls TikTok for Halloween and it went a bit viral around Brighton.
