Strictly's official Instagram account posted a video of the moment with the caption: "What about Tasha and Aljaz's INCREDIBLE Couple's Choice! The sky really is the limit #Strictly."

Responding in the comments, Tasha's boyfriend, Andrew, whom she met on Love Island in 2022, expressed his admiration with a sweet three-word message: "Well done baby" accompanied by clapping emojis.

This comes after Tasha moved viewers to tears on Saturday's show when she became visibly emotional during a VT before her poignant routine. The former Love Island contestant disclosed: "This song is about feeling not seen or unheard. I was born completely deaf in both ears, and my parents found out when I was about 12 months old.

"Being born into a hearing family was definitely difficult, they're the ones who had to really adapt their lifestyle around me, they started learning sign language which was beautiful", she shared, adding that they enrolled her in dance classes from an early age where she could "let go" and "just be Tasha".

The Strictly star went on to say: "Two years ago, I went on a reality TV show, I was the first contestant with a cochlear implant and I really wanted to go on to show that even though I had a disability, I could still find love.

"When I left the show, I remember my dad sat me down and he looked at me, straight, and said Tasha there's a lot of horrific stuff that was written about you, especially on social media. There were videos made about my voice, the way I speak, it became a trend at one point."

Tasha then became emotional as she confessed: "It really hit me hard as I wanted to go on for representation and I felt like I failed not just myself but the whole deaf community."

She bravely added: "I said you know what, I'm not gonna let them get me down, I'm going to use my platform and educate people."
