Well, friends. Another spicy Bombshell has officially entered the Love Island Australia 2024 villa, and he’s made his intentions clear: Mercedes Knox is going to go for what he wants. US-based model Mercedes is likely to cause some drama, so let’s get to know him better, shall we?
What do we know about Bombshell Mercedes Knox?
Mercedes Knox is a 28-year-old model from Dallas, Texas, with a reputation for being particularly charming with the ladies.
In a video with Love Island Australia producers, he shared that “the thing girls like about me most is my charisma. I’m smooth, and any girl would melt when I talk to her.”
Where have you seen Mercedes before?
For some, Mercedes may already be a familiar face in the reality TV world. He appeared on Season 2 of FBOY Island USA and won alongside his former girlfriend, Louise Barnard, splitting a $100,000 prize.
Mercedes later returned to FBOY Island USA for Season 3, where he reached the top again, this time splitting his $100,000 prize money with model Hali Okeowo. Seemingly, that relationship didn’t last either, because Mercedes is back on reality TV screens — this time on Love Island Australia.
What is Mercedes looking for on Love Island Australia?
In an interview with producers, Mercedes shared that he’s looking “for someone I can bring home to mama.”
He explained that he is “done with the bad girls” and is now searching for something real. However, if the girl he’s interested in is already in a couple, he said, “I’m just going to act like she’s not in a couple. Everybody is single to me.”
“The other guys in the Villa are definitely going to be intimidated by me, I’m going to come in there and show the girls what they’re missing,” he added.
Where to find Mercedes on social media
If you’d like to give Mercedes a follow on socials, you can find him on Instagram: @mercedesknoxx and on TikTok: @knoxmercedes.
There’s quite literally a Reddit thread dedicated to “what is it about Mercedes,” discussing his charm and his appeal on FBOY Island. So, we can’t help but believe him when he says he’s the “worst nightmare” of the other men in the Love Island Australia villa.
Guess we’ll have to wait and see how things play out!
Love Island Australia 2024 is airing on 9Now.
