Love Island’s Tasha Ghouri: Facts!
All about blonde babe Tasha Ghouri.
Tasha’s parents didn’t know she was deaf in her first years of life. She was actually born deaf, and had the cochlear implant surgery to hear when she was around five years old.
The model and dancer hails from Thirsk in Yorkshire.
Despite her unusual surname, Tasha is British. However Ghouri is an Arabic name.
According to Wikipedia, the name originates from “the Ghor region of present-day central Afghanistan came to Indian peninsula during the successive Muslim invasion in the 11th century.”
Tasha learnt to dance at the Creative Academy, on Stoke Poges Lane, in Slough, Berkshire.
Speaking to fellow contestants on Love Island recently, she told them how dancing helps her hear, as she relies on counting and the bass as she can’t always quite hear the music as everyone else would.
