Good news lads…you can win over a beauty even if you’re not a looker.
Telly’s Olivia Bentley reckons women rate personality over attractiveness these days.
The Made In Chelsea star, 24, says she is sick of dating hunks.
She told us: “In the past I’ve dated a lot of very attractive men and found their personalities didn’t match up.

“So now I’m more bothered about personality than looks. I’m not fussy about the way people look. I don’t really care. Thinking this way about men has helped me a lot when it comes to dating.
“I think someone’s personality can make them attractive. It’s the most important thing. In life, people stereotypically go for someone they think is fit. For example, some guys say they only go for blondes. But how can they do that? They might find a blonde and go on a date and discover her chat is s***. So they should think about things differently.”
After years of failed relationships, Olivia has taken action to improve her love life by signing up for Celebs Go Dating.

The blonde was confident getting professional help would help her to find romance.
She said: “At first I thought this would all be a bit of a joke. Everyone says, ‘It’s just TV’. But I actually took it very seriously.
“As a result, I learned so much about myself. Obviously this show is about finding love. But finding out what sort of person you are is the most important thing.
“If you’re not happy with yourself, you’re never going to be happy with anybody else.”

But Olivia insists there is no chance of her tuning in because she is too embarrassed to watch herself on screen.
Olivia said: “I was nervous going into this. But pretty quickly you forget you’re being filmed, which is something I regretted a bit afterwards!
“It’s mortifying seeing myself on TV. I try my hardest not to see myself – I don’t watch myself.
“I find it weird. I like find the whole thing cringe. Because of the format, I had to tell people that I liked them. It made me cringe beyond belief.

“You’re seen in a different light on this show. When you’re dating someone, you show a side that people don’t normally see. I barely hold people’s hands. I find it hard to hug one of my sisters, let alone hugging a bloke!”
The line-up also includes Hollyoaks hunk Malique Thompson-Dwyer, Love Islander Amy Hart and TOWIE regular James Lock.
Viewers will also see Charlotte Dawson visiting the agency for couples therapy with her partner Matt Sarsfield.
● The show is back at 9pm tomorrow on E4.
