A Rich House Poor House family who “barely make enough to cover the bills” were left in tears after being offered a £30,000 lifeline. Ant Burrows and his wife Tasha took part in the Channel 5 show which saw them swap lives, houses and budgets with wealthy couple Matt and Andrea Callanan for a week.
Despite Ant putting in 12-hour shifts as a delivery driver and Tasha running her own pole dancing business, the couple are left with just £71 a week after paying the bills. One Sunday's episode, Tasha explained that she set up her studio in the hopes of getting the them out of debt - but is now “barely breaking even.”
She had also started upcycling glassware as a way of bringing in some extra cash, Wales Online reports. The pair, lived in a three-bedroom former council house in Bristol with their two children, say their money worries have caused “a lot of sleepless nights.”
