Love Islander Mike Boateng came into the villa and instantly hit it off with fellow Islander, Leanne. But who is Mike? Here's all you need to know…
January 17, 2020 - 20:28 GMT Francesca Shillcock Love Island is back and we're already hooked. The Islanders arrived in the South African villa just a few days ago and have coupled up, and uncoupled for some, and then re-coupled again . While we feel like we've already got to know the Islanders quite well since the show began, there are a few things that you might not know about them.
He worked as Police Officer Mike joined Greater Manchester Police in 2018. The Islander impressed his villa-mates when he walked in and told them his occupation, but it seems that he actually walked away from his role for his Love Island journey. A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Police told the Manchester Evening News:"Mr Boateng is no longer a GMP officer. He was with GMP for under three years and left the organisation prior to taking part in the show.
But used to be a footballer Prior to joining the Police, Mike also had a career as a semi-professional footballer. He used to play for Sheffield United alongside current Everton professional player Dominic Calvert-Lewin. He's quite the impressionist In his interview prior to entering the villa, Mike revealed an impressive party trick: impressions."I do great voice impressions of people like Barack Obama and Drake.
He's in it for the long haul Despite admitting that he has a wandering eye, Mike is determined to do whatever it takes to find The One."I can have a bit of a wandering eye, but I'm not going to wander for the sake of it. I’ve always had pretty long term relationships," he said."I'm going in to the villa to find love. If that means stepping on a few toes, burning a few bridges and finding the love of my life, I'm willing to do it.
