Strictly Come Dancing star Tasha Ghouri opened up on her health issue
Strictly Come Dancing star Tasha Ghouri has admitted she has been battling with a health problem on stage during the series as fans spotted a problem with her and pro dance partner Aljaz Skorjanec.
The hearing-impaired dancer spoke to It Takes Two host where she revealed that she’s been having a problem with dizziness on stage during some of her performances this year and has had to take steps to address the problem.
Love Island star Tasha, 26, scored a perfect 40/40 with pro partner on Saturday, the pro’s first since his return to the hit dance competition this year and Tasha’s first clean sweep of the series.

But it didn’t come without a battle. asked Tasha about her health problem as she said: “Tasha, you loved the lifts as well, you made them look so effortless, but you mentioned in the Clauditorium you were feeling really dizzy?”
Tasha replied: “Yeah, I remember the first time he spun me round, I was literally screaming, and especially with my implant it’s something I really struggle with, so what I have to do is just close my eyes.
“The whole time he’s spinning me around my eyes are closed and then I opened them going back into the kick.
“But because the ending wasn’t too wild it was okay and we kind of slowed down a little bit.”
Aljaz then admitted he actually made the moment even more intense on the night, adding: “You know, I actually did two extra rotations on the show. It was a moment where I knew in the show the adrenaline was gonna kick in and get you back on your feet.”
Fans love the pair but some have criticised the duo’s lack of variety on the series, especially as Tasha is controversially a trained dancer too.
@flopsypickle said: “The problem is Tasha has just been good since day one, there’s been no progression so I just find her dull to watch tbh, I’m sure her dance this week will be the same, oh and also I used to like Aljaz but this year he seems really really smug #ItTakesTwo #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing”

@witchywales said: “I agree, Strictly needs to get more non dancers like footballer Paul, Chris and Pete on board, then the whole thing becomes more exciting.
“Does it really matter if their arm, leg or any other part of their body should be in perfect position it’s so boring…x”
