He now focuses much of his time in mentoring community youth groups in North London. Darnell was born albino.

Darnell describes himself as personable, outgoing, caring and sensitive, who can often talk too much and say the wrong things.
Her gives himself three out of ten in physical attractiveness and says he is "way too skinny with a massive head".

An avid music lover, Darnell currently writes songs professionally and loves all music, especially R'n'B and Hip Hop but hates death metal.

His favourite film is Superbad and Chris Rock is his favourite comedian.

Currently single, Darnell is looking forward to meeting some cute girls in the house … or even his future wife.

He can't wait to see how he comes across in the house although admits that miserable and complaining housemates will irritate him.
