A heartbroken Andrew Le Page announced the death of grandfather on Tuesday.
The Love Island star, 27, took to his Instagram Stories to share the sad news with his fans, as he paid tribute to his late grandparent alongside his girlfriend Tasha Ghouri.
Tasha, 23, told her Instagram followers how her partner's late loved one made her feel 'so welcome into the family' last year, while Andrew dubbed his beloved grandfather 'the best Grandad in the world'.
Sharing a picture of himself and Tasha posing next to his grandfather with his 828,000 followers, Andrew captioned the sweet snap: "Today we say goodbye to the best Grandad in the world.
"RIP [love heart and cloud emoji]."
Tasha shared a screenshot of Andrew's post on her own Instagram Stories, adding: "This incredible man made me feel so welcome into the family and heaven truly gained an angel.
"We love you."
Andrew's sad family news comes as his relationship with Tasha grow more serious by the day, almost one year on from the couple meeting thanks to Love Island.
The loved-up pair came fourth on the ITV2 reality TV show last summer and have been besotted with one another since leaving the Spanish villa - with fans predicting they will go the distance and stay together for many years to come.
Last month, Tasha spoke candidly about the moment she thought Andrew was about to pop the question over the festive period.
Speaking to her fans via her YouTube channel, the dancer revealed she was gifted a ring in a Tiffany & Co. box over Christmas, which she initially believed to be an engagement ring from her boyfriend.
"Andrew got me a gorgeous promise ring," Tasha told her fans as she showed off the ring. "I love it so much. It’s so simple and I love silver. I did not expect that all and I started crying."
"When I first saw the box I was like, [gasps] because that is an engagement box! When I opened it, I didn’t know what to say," she continued.
"No one’s ever done that for me before and now I can wear that on my finger and I love something meaningful like that and something special that’s linked to Andrew, that’s why I really love it."
Andrew chimed in to jokingly add: "She’s not gonna wear it, she wants to keep it in the box."
Tasha went on to stress to her fans how she and Andrew "are not engaged" and remind them it's just a promise ring, but Andrew was quick to point out it "won't be long" until he does ask his girlfriend to be his wife.
