Profile

Socialite Gina recently lived in The Savoy for six months fully paid by her parents. She now lives in a house in Kings Cross. She once appeared in a tabloid newspaper as "the most spoilt girl in the country". She dropped out of Hertfordshire University where she was studying Fashion and Marketing as "people didn't party enough".

Gina admits she spends money when she is angry. "If I'm angry, I feel I deserve certain things". Gina has never had a real job where she has been employed by a company. She does wardrobe styling and personal shopping for her rapper boyfriend and her mum’s friends who admire her fashion sense.

She lives off a £10,000 per month allowance from her mum, which she spends on clothes, make-up, going out, petrol, haircuts, pedicures, manicures and other ways of treating herself. She has saved some money but has no idea how much. She does believe in God but is not religious and neither are her parents. Shopping makes her happy and she is passionate about handbags.

Gina's saying is: "I'm rich, so I can be a bitch!" She does say that she is not bitchy for the sake of it, only if someone gives her a reason to be. She doesn't have breakfast but always finds time for lunch.

She loves sushi and always meets friends for lunch. Her favourite restaurants are Banca and Nobu. Gina has dated up and coming rapper, Ecksell for over a year.

Big Brother 14

On Day 5, the public chose to nominate Dexter, Gina and Sallie for eviction; the "People's Puppet", Michael, cast the public's nominations on their behalf. On Day 9, Gina survived the public vote and Sallie was evicted from the House. On Day 12, after receiving eight nominations from her fellow housemates, Gina faced the public vote for a second week in a row. On Day 14, Gina was removed from the public vote after receiving the least votes to evict at that point. On Day 19, housemates nominated face-to-face during a live broadcast; after receiving four nominations from her fellow housemates, Gina faced the public vote for a third week in a row. On Day 23, Gina was "fake evicted" from the House along with Dexter; although the other housemates believed they had been evicted, they were actually sent to the Big Brother Secret Safe House, and would return to the House later in the week. On Day 26, Dexter and Gina, who had previously been living in the Safe House, were asked to save a nominated housemate from facing the public vote; they chose to save Charlie and replace her with Jackie. On Day 33, after receiving four nominations from her fellow housemates, Gina was nominated for eviction once again. On Day 37, she survived the public vote and Jackie was evicted from the House.
