Love Island’s Tasha Ghouri and former show star Georgia Steel were reportedly ‘inseparable’ best friends at school before they had a ‘bad fall out’.
Tasha, 23, and Georgia, 24, who appeared on the fourth series of Love Island, both attended Thirsk Secondary School in Yorkshire and a local dance troupe together.
However, it is claimed they never spoke again after a bust-up, when things turned sour as they both headed off to separate performing arts colleges.

‘Tasha and Georgia were honestly inseparable and just best friends throughout school,’ a pal told The Sun.
‘Things got a bit competitive towards Year 11 and then when Tasha got accepted into a better dance college than Georgia things turned bad.’
They added: ‘Stuff happens when you’re young but we hope they patch it up because they could be a huge support for each other.’
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Georgia and Tasha for comment.

Tasha attended CAPA College after school and later graduated from the Creative Academy with a 1st class honours degree in Dance Performance in 2019.
Georgia studied at the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts. She is a trained dancer and completed her training as an actress at St Mary’s University in London in 2019.
It comes after Tasha’s boyfriend Andrew Le Page was branded ‘son-in-law material’ by Tasha’s father Tarek.
The real estate agent, 27, impressed his potential future father-in-law by the way he described his 23-year old Tasha’s cochlear implant, which allows her to hear.
High praise! It comes after Tasha’s boyfriend Andrew Le Page, 27, was been branded ‘son-in-law material’ by Tasha’s father Tarek
Tasha and Andrew were among the five remaining couples given the responsibility of having to look after one of the baby dolls in an episode of Love Island earlier this week.
At one point when he was alone with ‘baby Leo,’ Andrew opened up to the doll about Tasha’s ‘superpower’ in heartwarming scenes.
Tarek wrote on Twitter: ‘Andrew is looking more and more like son in law material. The fire pit is very special…’

Andrew said on the show: ‘Your mum told me about her super power, her super power being that she has an implant that makes her able to hear. She’s very, very special and very, very brave and with this implant.’
Tarek recently insisted that he believes that Tasha and Andrew’s connection is ‘real’.
He tweeted: ‘It’s real. It was from the start. My girl is a slow burner on love but when she knows she knows.’

Andrew and Tasha’s relationship has not followed a straight path in the villa, with the pair facing several dumpings, and they both came back with different partners after Casa Amor where Andrew shared a number of intimate moments with former Islander Coco Lodge.
But the couple have not only survived and recoupled, they became boyfriend and girlfriend and are now second favourites to win this year’s series.
Love Island airs at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
