Modern Day Bridget Jones Hits the Villa: Meet Megan Forte Clarke, Love Island's Irish Lookalike to Maura Higgins
Get ready to meet Magen Forte Clarke, the 24-year-old musical theatre performer and energy broker from Dublin, Ireland who's all set to make a splash in the Love Island villa starting tomorrow!
A fan of Maura Higgins, Megan expressed her delight at the comparison: "I love Maura - what a compliment. She's an icon. She is like the Queen of Ireland. So if people are comparing me to her, then cheers, love that, thank you."
Megan's brunette looks and Irish accent have drawn comparisons to Maura, but this spunky Irish lass is forging her own path in the Love Island villa.
Recently, Megan showed empathy for Maura after the star's drunken kiss with married McFly guitarist Danny Jones. Megan quipped, "We've all had a drunken kiss."
Though she's a modern-day Bridget Jones who's been single for nearly three years, Megan hasn't lost hope! She shared her opinion on dating life: "It has been more than two years of hell and horror. I've been asked on a walk for a date. I'm like, 'That's brilliant, I love being a dog'. It is just never good, and then they ghost you. So many frogs."
The boys of the villa are in for a treat as Megan's got a whole wardrobe of bikinis and sexy outfits for The Hideaway, Love Island's private area for Islanders to spend time together alone. Megan said, "Yeah, I have shopped till I dropped. I feel like you can't be too prepared with stuff like that."
But Megan will stay true to herself in the villa, rocking her plastic retainer to bed and keeping things PG for her mom's sake. She revealed, "My mum's been like, 'Meg, please do not have sex in the villa'. I don't think I would anyway - too exposing."
Besides romance, Megan hasn't had any luck with office romances either, especially with her male musical theatre colleagues. She shared her thoughts on her ex: "He felt my wrath. I didn't really get any revenge. I think ignorance is bliss, so he was blocked. I haven't spoken to him since."
The boys, however, won't have to worry about Megan's dating past. She's got her sights set on finding someone fabulous in the villa. So brace yourselves, boys, Megan's entering the game!
Megan Forte Clarke, with her resemblance to Maura Higgins and Irish charm, is set to bring her unique brand of entertainment to the Love Island villa. As a fan of Maura, Megan has shown empathy towards the star's past experiences with celebrities, such as her drunken kiss with Danny Jones.
