LEAH Charles-King was left open-mouthed after a couple walked off before their property tour on A Place in the Sun.
The Channel 4 presenter found herself in eastern Malaga, Spain on Wednesday as she helped Kim look for her dream holiday home.

The house hunter brought her sister Debbie along for the search as the pair hoped to find a property close to the beach within their budget.
However, the sisters were so keen to look around one property, Leah was left standing as the pair wandered off.
Kim was hoping to find a two-bedroom property close to the seafront for under £115,000.
Explaining the reason behind her location choice, she said: “I love the Spanish culture and this is the more southern part of Spain where the weather is better all year round.”

When pushed by Leah on her budget, Kim admitted she would be prepared to go up to £140,000 for the perfect property.
Leah’s first property was a two-bedroom apartment in Torre del Mar with a balcony and enclosed courtyard.
Kim was initially impressed with the outside space and was keen to take a look around.
Before Leah had the chance to tell the sisters to explore the property, they turned their backs and went to walk off.
“I haven’t even told you to go off and they’ve gone,” Leah exclaimed.
Leah’s final property, which was an eight-minute walk to the beach and on the market for £117,000, provided Kim with a second contender.
Debbie, who was thrilled with the property, commented: “I’d move in tomorrow!”

Kim decided to put an offer of £131,000 on the beachfront apartment – but it was rejected.
Luckily for the property hunter, Kim returned to Malaga with her two sons who gave her the confidence to offer the full asking price which was subsequently accepted.
A Place in the Sun airs on Channel 4 on weekdays at 4pm.
