Strictly’s Tasha Ghouri finally breaks silence on Andrew split and reveals truth about custody of their dog
TASHA Ghouri has spoken out for the first time about her split from Love Island boyfriend Andrew Le Page.
The Strictly star hit back at trolls who accused her of taking their shared dog, Luna, away from him.
Tasha, 26, took to Instagram to address the backlash, revealing that Andrew, who has returned to his parents’ home in Guernsey, had made the decision to leave Luna with her in the UK as he wasn’t able to take the pup with him.
Tasha wrote on Instagram: “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 & 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.”
She also urged people to stop sending hateful messages to both her and Andrew, adding, “Break-ups happen in life, just because ours is in the public eye doesn’t make it any different.
“Spread kindness, also to Andrew because he’s also been getting messages.”
Tasha made it clear she won’t be commenting further on their relationship or Luna.
She said: “Thank you. I won’t be answering anymore on our relationship and Luna.”
Tasha revealed she was being trolled days after Andrew spoke about missing Luna on Snapchat.
Tearful Andrew told his fans “I miss her so much” after moving out of the former couple’s home.
And he’s finding the days spent without the pooch around particularly tough.
He said: “I’ve started this Snapchat about five times and keep choking up.
“She doesn’t even know it’s her birthday, but I miss her so much and hope to be with her again soon.
“Anyway, I’m going to stop talking about her otherwise I’ll keep choking up.”
He then turned his attention to his other dog, Willow, who he is doing his best to train.
Andrew also shared a short and sweet tribute to Luna on Instagram.
Beside a selfie of him smiling next to her, he wrote: “2 years old. Love you so much, more than you’ll ever know! Can’t wait to be with you again soon.”
Over the weekend, Andrew posted an emotional goodbye as he moved out of his shared house with Tasha.
The Sun revealed last month that the reality stars had called time on their relationship after three years.
It comes after reports Tasha had grown close to a Strictly co-star.
