Tasha Ghouri is entering the BBC ballroom for the first time, but Strictly Come Dancing isn't her first reality show. Back in 2022, the model and author appeared on season eight of Love Island, which is how she met her boyfriend, Andrew Le Page.
The couple, who regularly post about one another on social media, are still going strong after two years, and in February they launched their very own home renovation account after purchasing their first property together.
Here, we take a look at their blossoming love story, which began on TV…
Tasha and Andrew's time on Love Island

However, the pair had their own fair share of dramas with the challenges and during the infamous Casa Amor episodes, they chose to couple up with different partners.
However, the pair ended up reuniting, with Tasha leaving a set of romantic notes for her beau. The pair made it all the way to the final, but ultimately were voted out in fourth place. Their relationship continued going from strength to strength after they left the villa, with the lovebirds getting matching tattoos.
Adopting their dog Luna

Tasha gushed over their new family addition, writing: "What an emotional moment getting @LunaLePage. Thank you Alora Dog rescue & homeward bound for getting her to us safely! She's already so loved and she's now a part of our family."
The couple set up an Instagram account for their beloved pooch and regularly update followers on her life with the pair.

Celebrating their second anniversary

Moving in together

And at the start of the year, the proud couple became homeowners for the first time.
Posing outside their new property, they enthused: "From the love island villa to home owners. We're so excited that we'll be doing a full house renovation and making magic! We'll be sharing all the transformations on @lepageproperties it's going to be a wild ride but there's no-one else we'd both rather do it with!
"We already have exciting plans for this house, let's get our renovation boots on and work some magic. Also we're just happy for @lunalepage_ to have her own garden now eeeek!!!'."
Strictly

Speaking to HELLO! and other media ahead of the series launched, Tasha was asked whether she had started practicing her steps with Andrew. "Not yet, but I think certainly after the first show, we'll definitely be doing a few steps," she said.
