Speaking about what his family and friends think about him, he added: "Funny, a good heart. They know I’ll give anyone my last penny. I’m always there for support should they need it. Probably flirty and a ladies’ man – that’s what they think, but it’s not the case." 

He has a strong social media following, and has been regularly posting an updating fans since Wednesday evening's episode, via Instagram Stories. During the chats, he revealed that he wasn't even able to watch the show as he was on a flight! He said: "Hello people, hope you're well... I'm at the airport flying back to Lisbon so not able to watch the episode unfortunately but I hope you have a great time watching it and enjoy!"

After landing, he followed up saying: "Good morning people... I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has been showing love. As soon as I landed my phone was going crazy... the support and positivity and the nice messages I've been getting - I appreciate you guys, thank you very much. I'm not going in there to be someone else, I'm going in to be myself."

Mamudo and Robyn instantly hit it off 

The reality show contestant is also a keen chef, and has his own Instagram page, @mamudoscooking, for his delicious recipes. He and a few friends even did their own version of Come Dine with Me back in 2020 where he made prawn cocktail and lamb shoulder, yum! 

Fans took to Twitter to discuss Mamudo and his match, Robyn, in the episode, with one writing: " Robin & Mamudo are my fave couple," while another added: "Mamudo is such a gentleman. Now that is how you do it. He makes the girl dinner and he is a great chef. Praises his girl with nice compliments." 

Are you rooting for the couple?

So what does he look for in a partner? He said: "If she’s there, all about herself, 'I’m beautiful, I’ve got this' – I like them to be humble and open. Know their worth, but more chilled and laid back and just enjoy the moment rather than everything being about them."
