Hours after the The Sun revealed the bombshell's idenity, ITV confirmed the news.
In an interview with ITV, Toni said she is looking for "someone that can make me laugh - I'm super outgoing. And someone that's quite active. Maybe one day we could start our own family together."
As for why she wants to date a British guy, she added:"I've lived in three different states and I'm still single. It's time to try something new!
" I have some British friends and they're pretty charming. I think all Americans love a good accent. British men are just more polite, with better manners."

"Hey Maya, I heard you want more twists," Toni can be heard saying.
"How about an American bombshell?" she continues.
"Get ready, I'm on my way!"

Love Island fans call Islander a ‘red flag' as he makes shock dating admission

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island fans are raising red flags after new Islander Connor Phillips made a jaw-dropping dating confession. The pro rugby-playing Irishman, 25, admitted he's only had one relationship experience - and fans argue it doesn't even count.

As the pair got to know each other, Connor's lack of relationships raised alarms for Helena and viewers watching. Connor confessed: "To be honest, yeah, I've only had one girlfriend." Helena asked: "How long was that?" Connor replied: "I'd say, like, eight weeks." Helena couldn't resist laughing in his face, then asking: "How did it last eight weeks?" He added: "We were seeing each other for a while, but she was only my girlfriend for eight weeks. "And I think it's been two years since then, and I've grown a lot. So yeah, I feel like I'm kind of a bit ready now." But fans think this is a major red flag and it sparked a frenzy on X (formerly Twitter) as one said: "EIGHT WEEKS?? Oh Connor". Another added: "Only my girlfriend for 8 weeks". Love Island's TWO hunky new bombshells REVEALED A third penned: "Babe that does not count as a relationship #loveisland". Also in the episode, Conor's said he is looking for "someone who is really sure of themselves, ambitious, a bit of a go-getter and good craic. I like dark eyes and I don't mind a dominant woman". When it comes to turn offs, he added: "Being too needy, or needing to do everything together. "I like someone to be independent and do their own thing and then we come together and do our thing." However, Connor broke the show rules before he even entered the villa, after he'd revealed he sought advice from past winner Greg O'Shea. Islanders are forbidden from revealing their involvement in the series before it starts. Fellow Irish rugby player Greg, 30, won series five alongside Amber Gill. Conor shared: "I know Greg through rugby circles so I spoke to him about going on Love Island. "He just said 'be yourself, it's a really really really cool experience that not many people get. "So enjoy it and yeah take it day by day and if you can be yourself you can't really go too far wrong'. "So that's my plan. He was like 'my advice might be a bit different from others because I won'." He added: "I'm 25 and I've only had one relationship and it wasn't very long. "So I feel like I'm maybe doing something wrong or maybe I'm not in the right places. "So, hopefully this is the right place, and it should be, you know, because you're in a lovely villa surrounded by beautiful people, so I'm hoping that this is the one." 5 Connor is currently coupled up with blonde beauty Helena Credit: ITV 5 Conor's said he is looking for "someone who is really sure of themselves, ambitious, a bit of a go-getter and good craic" Credit: ITV

Love Island's Sophie's horrific injury photos after freak accident caused burn

Sophie on Love Island has explained how she had been engulfed in flames after an air-con unit blew a fireball back into her face and chest mid-performance Sophie has been open about her horrific injury following a freak accident. In 2018, Sophie was involved in a terrifying event when she had flames blow into her face during a performance in Chicago. The author and motivational speaker spoke about what happened during the first episode of the show. Speaking to Harry on the show, she said: "I've only had one boyfriend. When I was 22 I was in a fire accident. It made me the woman that I am. It made me learn so much about life and interactions with people and how to be better. ‌ "I believe to date people, you also need to be in a good place in yourself. That's why in my early 20s, I think I wasn't ready to date because I didn't feel good in myself. I had a lot of self work to do, I had a lot of building my own confidence." ‌ Sophie recalled how she had been engulfed in flames after an air-con unit blew a fireball back into her face and chest mid-performance. She said she had "blacked out for a little bit" and she was in terrible pain. "The air-con was too strong so when I blew the fire out, it blew back to me. It set me on fire. I just remember being in so much pain, I blacked out for a little bit… As soon as I got into the ambulance, I was in bits," she previously said. She had explained how she spent a month in intensive care in the United States, where she had machines to help her as she could no longer breathe on her own, eat, or even see properly. "That was a scary, scary time. On day two, I looked in the mirror and just cried," she said. Sophie had a facial tumour that was caused by the burns, which was operated on. She explained how keloid scars began growing on her chin and her face. ‌ She said: "They developed two months after the accident and they will be with me for life. It's just a case of taming and getting it flattening with steroid injections or laser. "At first the keloids knocked my confidence because I didn't know what it was. Up until then the scar was just flat. I thought 'great, my skin's healed itself, it's going to be OK', and then all of a sudden the skin started raising, it kept growing and growing." Sophie has learned to accept herself and urges people to ask rather than stare about what happened. "I just have to accept myself for me. I think sometimes people stare because they don't know how to ask. It's not intentionally rude, I think they're just curious and don't know what to say," she said of her feelings towards her scarring, "I never mind if people ask about my scars, then I can educate more people about what happened."

US actress Julianne Moore reveals plans to permanently move to the UK with husband Bart Freundlich as she joins huge list of stars fleeing America

Julianne Moore has revealed plans to permanently move to the UK with her husband Bart Freundlich. The actress, 64, was born in North Carolina but gained British citizenship because her late mother, Anne, was Scottish. And now she could join a huge list of stars fleeing the US with some citing Trump as the reason they want to leave Appearing on the Capital Breakfast with her Echo Valley co-star Sydney Sweeney on Tuesday, Julianne opened up about her plans to move to the UK. Host Chris Stark asked: 'Julianne, you're a British citizen, is that right?' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Julianne replied: 'Yeah, I have a passport,' before a shocked Sydney said: 'No way, I didn't know that!' 'Yeah, my mother was from Scotland, so I have a British passport,' Julianne explained. Chris said: 'That's so cool.' 'I know it is cool, right?; Julianne added. 'So, what's it like being back? Could you see yourself maybe coming and living here full-time?' Chris asked. Julianne revealed: 'I can actually, my husband and I have talked about that sometimes. It could be kind of fun. 'I've worked here a lot and I'm really comfortable here. I've been working here, gosh, probably since the nineties.' Radio co-host Jordan North asked: 'Really?' Sian Welby added: 'What since Hannibal?' 'Yeah, since before that actually,' Julianne laughed before continuing: 'Once I was coming into the UK and somebody told me I was in the wrong line and I was like 'no I'm not!' In March, Courtney Love became the latest star to reveal she's becoming a British citizen, because of 'frightening 'Donald Trump's return to the White House. Courtney, who was married to Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain from 1992 until his suicide in 1994, says she's looking to permanently relocate in the UK due to her dissatisfaction with the Trump administration in the US. Speaking at the Royal Geographical Society in London, she said: 'I'm really glad I'm here. 'It's so great to live here. I'm finally getting my British citizenship in six months. I get to be a citizen - I'm applying, man! Can't get rid of me!' The remarks drew rapturous applause from the London audience. Courtney went on to criticize the US President and his inner circle, admitting: 'In terms of Trump, and particularly this group... it's like emperor-core - like, [they're] wearing million-dollar watches. Celebrities including Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi, designer Tom Ford, Ryan Gosling and his wife Eva Mendes are among those who have fled America for the UK 'Emperor-core is going on at Mar-a-Lago. It's frightening now. It's like cyanide now.' Courtney, who has a 32-year-old daughter, Frances Cobain, with Kurt, has been living in London for several years, having moved to the capital from Los Angeles in 2019. Courtney has been vocal of her love of London for some time, saying in 2017: 'I know I'm going to end up there. 'I know what neighbourhood I'm going to end up in, and I know that I want to be on the Thames. I subscribe to this magazine called Country Life, which is just real-estate porn and fox hunting. It's amazing.' She is not the first celebrity to move to the UK since the reelection of Trump, with the woke stars being dubbed the 'Donald Dashers'. The so-called 'Donald Dash' has been backed up by Home Office figures this week which revealed that applications for UK citizenship soared in the last quarter of 2024, rising 40 per cent year on year. In fact more than 6,100 US citizens applied last year, the most since records began two decades ago and 26 per cent more than in 2023. Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi put their California mansion up for sale after the election results came in and kickstarted their 'retirement' in the UK, with sources alleging the 'US doesn't like her because of her sexual preferences'. Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling were already living in the UK and are now planning to stay put, a sentiment echoed by British-American actress Minnie Driver, who returned to London after nearly three decades of living in Los Angeles. Ugly Betty star America was allegedly spotted checking out schools in west London - after saying she wanted to leave the US when Trump was elected. One Notting Hill estate agent, who revealed the amount of wealthy American families they are moving in has 'skyrocketed' since Trump, told MailOnline: 'We moved a Marvel actress into a house very near here in the last week.' Eva Longoria, a Texas native who has been living abroad for work, is taking permanent residency in Mexico and Spain with her husband and son in order to 'escape' her 'dystopian' homeland.
