Strictly Come Dancing's Tasha Ghouri has confessed she's finding her latest routine a bit of a challenge.

The Love Island star dazzled viewers with her debut on the BBC dance show, scoring a solid 30 out of 40 from the judges for her Cha Cha to Sabrina Carpenter's Espresso, alongside partner Aljaz Skorjanec.

Her beau Andrew Le Page, who she met on the ITV2 dating programme, was spotted in the audience, and his support was highlighted by host Fleur East during their appearance on Strictly: It Takes Two on Tuesday (September 24) evening.

Tasha gushed: "He's just so supportive in everything I do and he knows how much this really means to me. That's my future husband right there. He's so amazing and I love him to pieces."

Former contestant turned presenter Fleur playfully teased: "They're getting married" with Aljaz chiming in: "I want to be there." Tasha quipped: "Strictly wedding, let's go.", reports Yorkshire Live.

It was later revealed that Tasha and Aljaz will be performing the Viennese Waltz this weekend. The blonde beauty admitted to Fleur and the BBC Two audience at home that she's "struggling".

Aljaz commented: "Every week on Strictly you've got to start from scratch. This is our first ballroom dance and it's completely different to the Cha Cha. I love my ballroom and i prefer it so much more."

Fleur noted that the Viennese Waltz is notorious for being "a dizzy one", and asked Tasha how she's managing with all the spinning. The contestant responded: "Struggling a little bit actually. It's quite rotational I would say. Very, very dizzy especially with my cochlear implant my balance is off so there's an extra bit of challenge there and I'm really having focus on my focus point."

Tasha and Alijaz found themselves joint top of the leaderboard with actress Sarah Hadland and her professional partner Vito Coppola. However, fans thought it was unfair as Tasha had a history of dance training before the BBC series, attending a dance college. Tasha isn’t the first celebrity to be hit with fix claims – the same was said about theatre performer Layton Williams last year.

Strictly: It Takes Two airs weeknights on BBC Two at 6.30pm
