Love Island star pictured with 'baby bump' before entering the villa

Photos have emerged of Love Island star Tasha Ghouri posing with a 'baby bump' before entering the villa.

The 23-year-old reality star is currently taking part in the eighth series of the ITV2 dating show. Tasha is currently coupled up with Andrew Le-Page, and the pair recently got the first night in the Hideaway this series.

However, fellow contestant Jay Younger recently stirred things up when he suggested to Andrew that he was more emotionally invested in the relationship than Tasha.

But before joining the show, Tasha modelled some garments for a well-known fashion retailer, the MEN reports. In a number of photos on ASOS, Tasha can be seen wearing maternity clothes, over a blossoming baby bump.

One photo shows Tasha wears a nude bardot midaxi dress. Her look is completed by a pair of sunglasses, and of course, a bump. In another image, Tasha models a sage green satin dress with long sleeves and bow detailing across her chest.

Tasha Gouri, who is Love Island's first deaf contestant, went viral due to her ASOS career last year. After posing with a cochlear implant on the e-commerce site, many shoppers were quick to praise the images.

An ASOS fan tweeted at the time: "Love to see it" followed by a smiley face and clapping hands emojis. "Well done @ASOS hearing aids on an earring model".

Another shopper highlighted the use of representation on the site earlier this year in April, when Twitter-user @asiasmith_16 wrote: "Definitely not crying because of @ASOS using an earring model with a hearing aid. "It’s the first time I’ve ever seen a model with a hearing impairment, let alone an earring model, and it’s so refreshing to see this kind of representation for people like me."

After the tweet racked up thousands of likes and retweets, Tasha responded to the tweet, explaining her condition. She said: "This is a cochlear implant which is more advanced than hearing aids.

"I’m also modelling their clothes etc! So not just doing earrings which is the biggest achievement I’ve done! Proving out there that no matter what disability you’ve got.. you can do it".
