Ines Basic (MAFS 2019)

Age: 28
From: Brisbane, QLD
Occupation: Legal Assistant

28-year-old Ines experienced a difficult and emotional childhood after she and her family fled Bosnia during the war in the 1990s. Having settled in her current hometown of Brisbane, she still regrets that her parents’ divorce had such a strong effect on her as she grew up.

Passionately wanting a future unlike that of her parents, Ines is looking to meet someone who she can create the family life that she never had growing up. The one thing she wants more than anything is to become a mum – and soon. With the desire for at least three children, Ines needs a man who has the means to provide a comfortable life for her and their family as she doesn’t what her kids to have the childhood she did.

Strong willed and extremely direct, this legal assistant doesn’t suffer fools and doesn’t hesitate to speak her mind, regardless of who she might offend. Having become easily bored with partners in the past, Ines requires an immediate connection, or she ends the union as quickly as it started. She also believes that physical intimacy is paramount in any relationship, so sexual chemistry is something Ines will be on the lookout for the moment she lays eyes on her groom.
