Love Island's Tasha says living with Andrew is a 'dream' but reveals one annoying habit

Love Island's Tasha Ghouri has given a glimpse into her life with boyfriend Andrew Le Page after the pair became the first couple of this series to take the plunge.

The model and dancer says her beau has been a 'dream' to live with, although she joked Andrew did have a problem when it came to putting his clothes away in the wardrobe.

The 24-year-old refused to be drawn on claims made by co-star Paige Thorne, who said one of the remaining couples from the show was faking it, with Tasha telling the Mirror: "That's nothing to do with me, I am staying out of that. I'm just focussing on myself, focussing on me and Andrew."

As well as scooping up major fashion deals since leaving the Love Island villa in August, Tasha has reached many milestones with Andrew, from getting matching tattoos, to moving in together in September, to their first holiday in Dubai last month.

Speaking about their time together, Tasha said: "Being on holiday bought us so much closer. It has been so good. I think we are massively blossoming and flourishing. Everyday we find something new about each other."

When asked if there's anything about her real estate boyfriend that annoys her, the Love Island runner-up, replied: "The only thing is he puts clothes on the floor after he's finishing changing, he put it on the floor, and I'm like 'Andrew put that in the wardrobe".

Laughing, she went on: "But honestly it's funny. But honestly he's so good, he cleans the house, he's so good at chores, I'm like 'okay balances it out nicely', but I have bad habits as well.

"I just think it's nice that we both laugh it off and think it's fine, it's not that big of a deal."

Tasha says she is loving living with Andrew without other people and cameras around, as they experienced in the Love Island villa.

"I like to come home, give him a big hug, we cook together, watch Game of Thrones together or something, so it has been a dream so far," she said.

Tasha was chatting to the Mirror as she teamed up with the National Lottery to help celebrate the achievements of deaf British signsong rapper, Signkid, by unveiling sculpture in London, at the Roundhouse.

Signkid, real name Kevin Walker, has helped use his own experiences to help make the arts more accessible for his community, with the help of National Lottery funding.

Tasha, the first deaf contestant to appear on Love Island, says that growing up there weren't lots of deaf role models to look up to, like Signkid.

The star, who wears a cochlear implant, said: "I never really had anyone to look up to, on TV, where I was modelling, that's why the world is changing, there wasn't enough representation.

"For me personally I didn't really have that role model, which is why I'm working hard to be that role model for the younger generation, that they can look up and be like 'actually I can do that'."

Tasha says that since coming off the show she gets messages every day from people telling her she's given them confidence about their own implants.

"Saying that 'because of you I have the confidence to put my hair up, and because of you I feel so confident to go out today.

"That bring me happiness, that brings me warmth," she concluded.
