OG Love Island Australia 2024 Islander Em Miguel-Leigh captured viewers’ attention from day one thanks to her sassy clapbacks and quick wit.
She originally coupled up with Indigo Carthew as friends, but went on to form a romantic connection with both Taylor Reid and Mercedes Knox.
Over the 2024 season of Love Island Australia, we’ve gotten to know Em inside the villa, so we thought we’d take a look at her life on the outside.
What do we know about Em Miguel-Leigh?
Outside of her reality TV journey, Em works as a model and content creator. She has also worked in hospitality — as a restaurant manager, and in social media marketing as well.
The 26-year-old grew up outside of Kempsey, New South Wales, and after leaving home at 18, spent some time living aboard in Canada. Most recently, she has called Sydney home.
Ever an active gal, Em boasts a black belt in karate and is also a fan of snowboarding.
What is Em looking for on Love Island Australia?
According to Nine, Em came into the villa looking for an “emotional connection first over a physical one”. After coupling up with Taylor early on in the season, she moved on to Bombshell Mercedes.
Before officially coupling up, both Em and Mercedes voiced their interest in each other. They were then paired up for Hotel Amor and officially recoupled together shortly after.
