Andrew Le Page, a contestant on Love Island UK Season 8, bravely disclosed that he received a diagnosis of a brain tumor at the age of 20. Now 28 years old, Andrew participated in the reality show and formed a bond with Tasha Ghouri, ultimately finishing fourth in the competition.
The couple continues to have a solid relationship after Love Island UK, and Andrew made an appearance on Tasha’s podcast, Superpowers With Tasha, to share the story of how he discovered his distressing health condition.
“It all started when I noticed a lump on my head that had been there for a few years. My brother felt it and expressed concern, asking me what was wrong. I didn’t have an answer, as I had simply ignored it for a while,” Andrew recounted.
“At that moment, he immediately contacted the doctor and arranged an appointment for me. I underwent an MRI scan and returned to the doctor, where I received the shocking news that I had a brain tumor. It was a moment of utter disbelief and confusion.”
With the support of his loved ones, Andrew underwent surgery in London just two weeks later, successfully removing the tumor. Reflecting on the experience, he expressed gratitude to his brother for urging him to seek medical help. Andrew initially ignored the lump, mistaking it for part of his skull due to its size and hardness. The journey was terrifying, but thanks to prompt action, he overcame this health challenge at the young age of 20.
Tasha hosts a special podcast called Superpowers With Tasha, where she talks to people who have amazing stories to share. Even though Tasha was born deaf, she sees her deafness as something special and powerful. She uses her podcast to shine a light on the incredible talents and strengths of others.
Andrew and Tasha met each other while they were both on Love Island UK in 2022.
