Brittney had an emotional meltdown after attempting to get a date with Jamie Doran on Thursday night’s episode, with the fireman quickly friend-zoning her.

She continued: ‘That’s why I’m here for the third time.’ 

She said she has tried a number of times but with no success with men on the show, with her also struggling to find love in life. 

‘It’s not even about Paradise. It’s just about love in general. I’ve never been past the first date in so long, like, I don’t know what it feels like for someone to like me.’

She said it’s sad as she has love to give: ‘I feel like I could give so much. Everyone deserves love, but then it’s just like me in the corner again, alone. 

‘Like, I just…I’m here because I really want that.’ 

She added she felt silly for putting herself out there: ‘It’s day two and I feel like a fool. But I just feel like I’m doing this for the third time and still I’ve got nothing.’
