Tasha Ghouri has seen success since leaving Love Island as a finalist in the summer - and now has 1.5million fans on Instagram following what she is getting up to next. She has become a figure of pre-loved fashion and is the face of many campaigns, including eBay and most recently Ann Summers.
The publicity that comes with being on the ITV2 reality show has also enabled her to raise awareness of disability inclusion with her 'superpower' - which sees her wear a cochlear implant after being born deaf - and is a regular at glamorous red carpet events dressed in incredible getups - with boyfriend Andrew Le Page always by her side.
The property pro, who she asked to be her boyfriend during Love Island and now refers to as her 'soulmate', is her biggest cheerleader and although she has a busy work schedule, Tasha loves coming home to him at their London apartment.
"Being in the villa, it's so different. So coming out - me and Andrew live together and the fact that even if I am up and down the country, I always come back to our home at the end of the day and I think that's so nice," Tasha tells The Mirror.
"You don't have to worry about long distance, you don't have to worry about making time for each other because we live together now. So it's amazing.
"The future is looking bright and we both have goals together and we both want to work hard."
On whether there will be an engagement proposal any time soon, Tasha laughs: "It's up to him to put a ring on it.
"It feels so right with him and for once in my life, I'm genuinely happy and I believe he's my soulmate."
They are one of three couples still together after the series came to a close in August - as just yesterday it was announced Gemma Owen and Luca Bish had 'mutually' parted ways.
Tasha wasn't able to comment on their split but it's clear she and Andrew are very loved up.
The pair like to keep dates at the weekend fun, and instead of going for dinner, they'll do activities with inspiration from TikTok.
Just last weekend they visited Fairgame at Canary Wharf, central London.
"We go on TikTok and we literally search 'date night ideas in London' - it's the best way to do it," the 23-year-old explains.
"There are so many amazing things in London we haven't done and they're fun dates, not just dinner, so it's different. So that's a little hack."
They've even expressed their commitment to one another in the form of permanent ink, with matching rose tattoos.
Tasha has a dainty outline behind her ear while Andrew added his to his hand.
After leaving the Spanish villa, the dancer and model knew she wanted a tattoo to mark her one-of-a-kind summer and asked her beau if he would get one with her.
"Andrew was like, 'yeah, why not?'" Tasha begins.
"I was going to get a rose anyway because it represents so much about my time in the villa and Andrew was like 'yeah let's do it'.
"I'll never regret having it because it's something so special and reminds me of Love Island and roses represent Andrew - it's our little thing between us. It felt right to get it."
He also made his own romantic gesture with a poignant tattoo dedicated to his girlfriend and the deaf community - which he kept as a surprise.
Tasha knew he was going to get one done but had no idea what it would be.
When he returned home, it took him a while to reveal the artwork - which depicts 'I love you' in British Sign Language (BSL) with a cochlear implant wrapped around it.
"He showed me and I honestly did not expect to see that amazing tattoo - it is so beautiful and it represents the deaf community, as well as me," Tasha reflects.
"I think it's so nice that Andrew is invested in something that I'm invested in so it's so nice he's a part of it."
Often wowing her fans with her style choices, Tasha, who became a brand ambassador for eBay, says she has always shopped in charity shops and in vintage stores.
But being on Love Island 2022, which was sponsored by the e-commerce site, changed her perspective, realising just how versatile second-hand can be.
She's become much more aware of her purchasing habits and vows to never buy from fast-fashion stores again.
Showing off her pre-loved outfits is something she hopes helps with the stigma around it and has recently partnered with Samsung to reveal how to turn 'wardrobe trash into treasure' with help from their Galaxy Z Flip4.
"The items that we were given in the villa - I was genuinely like 'wow all of these amazing clothes are from eBay' and coming out, I've learnt so much more about fast fashion and pre-loved and I think it's just opened my mind a lot more," Tasha continues.
"Pre-loved is something that's not embarrassing.
"I find that there is a massive stigma so I think I've tried to break down and show that it's okay to wear pre-loved and you can find new things as well, you just have to do a bit of digging.
"It's one of those situations where it's one of a kind as well."
Shopping this way has enabled the fashionista to have multiple styles in creating unique looks.
"I like to play around. I like to be creative. I like to be bold," she adds.
According to a study by Samsung, the average Brit has almost £800 worth of unworn clothes in their wardrobes, thanks to 43 per cent admitting that they hold onto clothes that they have bought but don't even like.
The research revealed that almost half (48pc) would prefer to recycle or re-sell their clothes than throw them away, yet a fifth find it too much effort and over a third (39pc) have given up on the selling process altogether because they found it too hard to do the clothes justice through photos.
But with clothing accounting for nearly a quarter of all second-hand purchases made in the UK in 2022, there's money to be made from turning pre-loved items into new-found fits.
A third of young adults who have sold pre-loved clothing online have made an average of £350 from their efforts, with 20 per cent bringing in £500 or more, the research suggests.
Tasha has had days where she does a massive clear-out of her wardrobe and assesses items she hasn't worn for a while, carrying out a time test.
"I've had to really think 'okay, this has been in my wardrobe for eight months now, where are you going to wear it the next eight months?" she admits.
"And I think the best advice I can give is just really to think about would you really really wear it and if you don't, then sell it.
"If you haven't worn it that's okay but don't throw it away. Sell it on - it's better for the environment and somebody else can have that, or donate it to charity."
She'll take snaps on her phone of the items she wants to sell, and styles them with other pieces so shoppers can see how it can look best.
It's all about the lighting - either using a ring light or natural light - and angles, she says.
Advising on the perfect outfit photo, Tasha advises: "It's all about getting the right angles, have fun with it, be creative - you don't have to stand straight and you can style it.
"My best advice is just be natural with the posing and you don't have to go over the top. Move about and if you use a lower angle it elongates your legs."
When it comes to deciding the right price point for selling items online, she says to think about the condition, the quality of the fabric, and what brand it is.
