Tanya Manhenga Biography – Tanya Manhenga Wiki

Tanya Manhenga is a biomedical science student, influencer and model from Liverpool. The 22-year-old is a contestant on Love Island 2023. She deferred the final term of her biomedical science degree to star on Love Island.

The 22-year-old student told MailOnline she hopes to finish her three-year course at Manchester Salford and pursue a career as an embryologist after she finds a boyfriend in the South African villa.

“I am definitely going to finish because I have just one little term left of my degree that I’ve deferred and that’s something that I wouldn’t just leave because I’ve dedicated time and effort to it and I’m not just going to stop because I went on Love Island.

“You never know what’s going to happen when you finish the show. If there are opportunities there, I will definitely take them but it will have to be something amazing for me to leave what I was doing before.

“It’s a three-year course that I did at Manchester Salford and I really enjoyed it, surprisingly because I did it very last minute.

“If Love Island wasn’t there or even afterwards I would have continued to finish my degree and then I would have done embryology and working with IVF and helping people have babies.

“That’s the only job that I really wanted because it’s the most rewarding to me. I want to wake up and do something rewarding that’s helping someone.”

Love Island said on Instagram when they unveiled the model as the show’s first singleton: “Biomedical science student Tanya is bringing brains, beauty and big vibes to the villa.”

Unlike many former Islanders, Tanya applied for the series and was shocked to receive a call from ITV asking if she was still up for the experience.

Tanya says she replied: “Yes! I am still single, please, help.”

She explained: “I was tired of dating and dating and dating and these boys just wasting my time so I was like what a better way to find love than on Love Island? Let’s see if it actually works.

“I put my name on the application and I forgot about it for a month. Then I was at uni one day and I got a call from someone at ITV asking if I was still interested.”

According to the NHS, Vitiligo can affect any area of skin, but it commonly happens on the face, neck and hands, and in skin creases.

Speaking about her skin condition, Vitiligo, Tanya said: “I have Vitiligo, which is a skin pigmentation, you may not even notice it. It’s on my lip and I have a stripe on my hair. Not many people know that but I think it’s quite cute. I don’t care about covering it up all the time, I think it’s a vibe.”
