Love Island’s Tasha Ghouri has won over a whole new legion of fans with her moving and simply stunning performances on Strictly.
The 26-year-old quickly became one of the bookies’ favourites after cha cha cha-ing onto the famous dance floor with returning professional dancer Aljaž Škorjanec in September, and she’s inspired so many by proudly wearing her cochlear implant.
And for Tasha, her Strictly experience couldn’t have gone better. “It has been incredible, a dream come true, and I’m so glad I get to do it with Aljaž,” she tells us. “He is an amazing dancer and a brilliant person so I’m glad I get to share this journey with him.”
Here, chatting to new before the semi-finals, Tasha, who was born deaf, talks about inspiring a community, meeting Love Island boyfriend Andrew Le Page, 29, and her Christmas plans…
Hi, Tasha! We’ve loved you on Strictly! You’re such a trailblazer for the deaf community and have raised so much awareness. What has been the response from others in the community?
