Hesitating very slightly, Olivia responds: ‘I’m definitely here for myself.’
Olivia has been coupled-up with Kai Fagan, 24, in the main villa but the pair have been separated after the girls set off for Casa Amor during Sunday’s episode.
It comes after Olivia joked she’d forgotten her partner Kai Fagan’s name after the Casa Amor boys descended on the villa during Monday’s episode.
The actress said restaurant host Maxwell was ‘definitely’ her type, branding him ‘attractive’.
Speaking alone, Maxwell asked Olivia if he would be wasting his time if he wanted to get to know her.
She replied during the flirty chat: ‘No you’re not wasting your time. You’re an attractive guy and definitely my type.’
Maxwell was joined by Frankie Davey, Bayley Mummery, Martin Akinola, Kain Reed and Ryan Weekley as they met the girls for the first time.
Meanwhile, the famous Casa Amor test returned to Love Island this week as Islanders are faced with their biggest challenge yet.

And Lana Jenkins appears to already be exploring her options as she will lock lips with new boy Kain Reed during a steamy challenge in Tuesday evening’s episode.
The blonde make-up artist is currently coupled up with original boy Ron Hall, but has been getting to know Kain since moving to the villa next door on Sunday’s episode.
Hailing from Newcastle, the hunky energy consultant showed a keen interest in Lana from the get-go, with the duo even sharing a bed together on the first night of Casa Amor.
And it appears Kain could be just her type, as fans have noticed a striking resemblance between the Geordie and her current partner Ron – dubbing him a ‘literal clone’.
Tuesday’s episode will see the islanders take on a challenge dubbed Raunchy Races, where the main villas and Casa Amor will race against each other to complete a series of sexy challenges.

Chemistry? The islanders will take on a challenge where the shortest boy is challenged to kiss the girl he fancies the most – meaning Kain has the choice, and chooses to smooch Lana
The first villa to complete each challenge wins a point, the one that receives the most points will win a party.
And during the challenge, the shortest boy is challenged to kiss the girl he fancies the most – meaning Kain has the choice, and chooses to smooch Lana.
While over in the main villa, Casey is the shortest boy and opts to kiss new girl Sanam.
The challenge also saw Tanya Manhenga share a kiss with Martin Akinola, who appears to have turned her head from Shaq Muhammad.

Upon the arrival of the new boys, Lana admitted that while it would ‘take a lot to turn her head’, she wasn’t ruling it out.
She and Kain then shared a chat during the evening, with the beauty admitted that she liked his Northern accent.
Before heading into the villa, Kain explained that he had his eye on Samie Elishi, but added: ‘I also like Lana, she’s obviously coupled up, but in Casa Amor the other boys aren’t there so we’ll have to see what happens won’t we?!’
