Tasha Ghouri and Andrew Le Page were together for two years after meeting on Love Island
Strictly Come Dancing finalist Tasha Ghouri has hit back at critics who called her “horrible” in the aftermath of her break up with Love Island star Andrew Le Page.
Online trolls accused the 26-year-old, who met ex-boyfriend Andrew on the ITV dating show in 2022, of ‘taking’ their dog Luna in the split. Tasha, who reached the final of BBC dance competition Strictly with partner Aljaž Å korjanec last year, has now clarified the situation.
She said Andrew, who recently moved back to his parents’ house in Guernsey after leaving their shared home, had chosen to leave Luna with her as he couldn’t take the dog, the Mirror reports.
On Snapchat, Tasha wrote: “Since there’s so many horrible messages I’ve got about taking Luna off Andrew – first off, she is our dog who we got together. He is in Guernsey and decided to leave Luna here with me as he couldn’t take her, it wasn’t ideal. When he’s found a place back in the UK, we will be working out a way for both of us to see her.”
Tasha said she felt compelled to respond to the rumours after receiving messages calling her “a horrible person, scum, etc,”. She urged people not to believe every headline they read in the press, saying: “No-one knows what went on in our relationship behind closed doors. Break-ups happen in life. Just because ours is in the ‘public eye’ doesn’t make it any different.”
Tasha concluded by asking fans to “spread kindness – also to Andrew because he’s also been getting messages.” She added: “Thank you. I won’t be answering any more on our relationship and Luna.”
It comes after Andrew emotionally admitted that he has “cried more times” than ever this year. He shared a heartfelt Snapchat video, revealing he had to re-record it multiple times due to getting choked up while talking about missing his dog, Luna.
“She doesn’t even know it’s her birthday, but I miss her so much and hope to be with her again soon,” he said.
Andrew and Tasha met on the eighth series of Love Island and celebrated their two-year anniversary in 2024.
They adopted Luna together and even created a dedicated Instagram account for their dream home renovation project.
The couple announced their split at the start of this year. Tasha shared on social media that she would not be discussing the breakup publicly.
In a social media post, she wrote: “I won’t be speaking on the situation – it’s a private side of my life which I’m still dealing with internally and mentally. It’s private for me and as much as I do want to share it with you all, one day I will, but I’m still processing everything that has happened and going on.”
