Have you have ever wondered what Brits deem to be the ideal man or woman? Well the wait is over. Match.com has found what Brits desire in a perfect partner and it might surprise you!

Here is the breakdown!

Here is the breakdown!

The most desirable women is a brunette not a blonde despite what the movies say, she is intelligent- a doctor or vet, no less and has well placed tattoos. Not covered in them- just a cheeky one on a discreet part of the body. Men also appreciate a woman who swims in her spare time.

Females on the other hand want a man who's a smart executive type and enjoys the company of a canine friend.

Forget about gentlemen preferring blondes and women hankering after muscles- brunettes and 'dad bods' are in this year.

In terms of cash- women look for men who earn between £50,000 and £100,000 a year and men are split between earning less than £25,000 a year and more than £250,000 annually.

Kate Taylor, match relationship expert comments: "The data reveals some interesting insights into the Brit's ideal date. Women are clearly fed up with the current male obsession of posting torso shots, preferring to instead relax with a more realistically well-fed partner who won't spend every evening in the gym. Meanwhile men seem to be going against the grain and looking for a wealthy mate which, whatever the reason for this may be. Whatever takes your fancy, with more than 70 per cent of match members using the mobile app, your ideal date available at your fingertips."
