Is Tasha from Love Island deaf?
Tasha made history when she become the first ever deaf person to appear as a contestant on Love Island.
Tasha quickly told her fellow Islanders, admitting she wears a cochlear implant, which is a complex electronic device that can help to provide a sense of sound to a person who is profoundly deaf or severely hard-of-hearing.
Admitted her family and friends find her inspirational, she said: "They would definitely describe me as wild. I can get very wild on a night out, I’m definitely a party animal. I love my prosecco and to have a dance - I’m always on the dance floor. I’m very loyal to my friends and family, I’ll always have their backs. I’m the type of person to put others before me.
"They would definitely say I’m a nap queen - I love napping! I think they’d also say I’m inspirational because of my hearing and my cochlear implant. I inspire quite a lot of people because I’m really open about it."
