Love Island’s Tasha Ghouri has hit back at co-star Danica Taylor for questioning the validity of her relationship with boyfriend Andrew Le Page.
In a recent chat, Danica cast doubt on the pair’s union as she had not been convinced it was genuine due to it being such a rollercoaster romance.
Hitting back, model and dancer Tasha, 23, said: ‘I think just because we were up and down, it doesn’t mean that we weren’t genuine.
‘Every relationship has its ups and downs and ours wasn’t plain sailing, but it got us to where we are now.
‘I think it’s hard to judge someone’s relationship just because it’s up and down.
‘Our feelings throughout were genuine and for us the only opinion that matters is ours,’ she added to Ok!: ‘Sometimes you have to go through the hard times to get to the good times.

‘I have a saying that life’s a climb but the view is great and that’s how I see our relationship in the villa because at the end it was great.’
Danica, 21, previously told new! magazine: ‘They did have a ride and there were times I questioned: “Is it genuine? Is it real? Are they playing a game?”
However, Danica, who also had a far from smooth time in the villa as she struggled to find love, did change her tune about the pair, adding: ‘Once it was a boyfriend and girlfriend thing, that’s when we all started to go, “Hang on, this is real. They’ve really fallen for each other.”‘
Tasha and 27-year-old estate agent Andrew’s rocky romance in the villa saw them both choosing to recouple after Casa Amor, as well as Andrew’s fling with bombshell Coco Lodge, which obviously caused epic drama between him and Tasha.

Like Danica – who left the villa with love interest Jamie Allen last month but is facing rumours that they’ve split – the viewers were also not convinced that the pair’s romance was solid and they were often in the bottom two in the public vote.
But they eventually came out the other side and became fan favourites who went on to make their relationship official on the show, and made it to the final.
Since leaving the show they have appeared to be inseparable and are currently flat hunting together in London.
‘We’re going to rent and then save so we can get a house together,’ Andrew told OK!, adding that they’ve ‘decided on an area.’

‘Tasha is an east London girl and I was in west London before, so obviously we’re going to be in east London,’ he laughed.
Tasha, who has also shut down speculation she’s feuding with Ekin-Su Culculoglu after the actress was noticeably absent from the dancer’s birthday party, added: ‘I live with flatmates and Andrew is living out of a suitcase, so we really want a place that’s ours and we can make a home.
‘My mum has been texting me every day saying, “Have you found a place yet?”’
On Saturday the pair were spotted enjoying a double date with their co-stars Gemma Owen and Luca Bish at Tottenham Hotspur FC’s London stadium.
