The pair called time on their relationship after three years[/caption]

They called time on their relationship in January after three years together.

Tasha, 26, and Andrew, 29, first rose to fame on the eighth series of the hit ITV2 dating show back in 2022.

Their relationship was initially going strong after they finished in fourth place in the live final.

However, they later called it quits before it was reported that Tasha had grown close to a Strictly co-star.

Now, Tasha gave her fans a glimpse of her new home after the split with her ex.

She was seemingly in the mood for a lazy morning at home in bed as she took to her Instagram story.

Her legs were covered by a comfortable-looking grey throw as she tucked into a packet of Dorito chips with accompanying salsa.

A high-tech Apple laptop was positioned on her bed as boxes of belongings were stacked in the background.

Users would have also caught a glimpse of the stylish, neutral-coloured wallpaper and stylish-looking curtains.

The background also featured grand double French doors which were painted white with brass handles.

She captioned the snap: “The perfect Sunday,” alongside a white heart emoji.

This comes after Tasha previously faced backlash after she was accused of taking custody of their dog Luna away from Andrew.

However, she claimed that Andrew has temporarily moved into his parents’ home in Guernsey and are yet to figure out a full-time situation.

She wrote on Instagram: “Since there’s so many horrible messages I’ve got about taking Luna off Andrew—first off, she is our dog who we got together.

“He is in Guernsey & decided to leave Luna here with me as he couldn’t take her, it wasn’t ideal.

“When he’s found a place back in the UK, we will be working out a way for both of us to see her.”

More than 839 BBC staffers are now on a payment recovery plan, each owing an average of £1,700.

While those on monthly pay are seeing the cash knocked from future wages, the company has decided chasing up ex-staffers is too much hassle.

But the BBC, run by Director-General Tim Davie, has written off 492 cases over the past five years, costing licence fee-payers £522,000.

A BBC spokesman said: “Erroneous payments are rare and occur in 0.24 per cent of payments.”

They added, “When an overpayment does occur, every case is thoroughly pursued to either recover the money or to seek an alternative such as deductions from future work.”

Last year, the Global Payroll Association said one in ten office staff have been overpaid by their employer, with a quarter not reporting it.

The average advertised salary hit a record £41,000 last year but vacancies fell to a four-year low, a report said.

RANGERS have confirmed Philippe Clement has been sacked after 16 months in the job.

Now we can reveal a former Gers defender is one of the names in the frame to take over.

Philippe Clement has been sacked[/caption]

SunSport were first to break the news on Sunday afternoon that the Belgian was on his way out of Ibrox.

Saturday’s 2-0 defeat to St Mirren was the final straw for directors with Clement finally told his time was up by chief executive Patrick Stewart.

We can now reveal former defender Russell Martin is one of the names in the frame to take over.

The ex-Southampton boss is currently out of work and it’s understood he’s regarded as a serious contender by influential boardroom figures who are involved in the ongoing takeover talks with US investors.

The bookies have installed Steven Gerrard as the favourite to make a sensational return.

But it’s believed the Liverpool legend – who guided Gers to the Premiership title in 2021 – may not believe the time is right.

The likelihood is that Ibrox chiefs will name a caretaker boss for Wednesday’s league clash with Kilmarnock at Rugby Park – with Under-18s coach Kevin Thomson and Clement’s No2 Issame Charai possibilities.

But Clement was informed of the club’s decision following behind-the-scenes talks throughout Saturday night and yesterday.

A statement released by the club last night confirmed: “Rangers Football club can confirm it has tonight parted company with men’s first-team manager, Philippe Clement. 

“The club would like to put on record their sincere thanks to Philippe for his hard work and dedication during his spell in charge. 

“A further update from the club will follow in due course.”

Gers will now be obliged to pay out a hefty severance deal to the 50 year-old Belgian and his backroom staff.

The club handed Clement a bumper new deal last August which meant he was due a big money pay-off if he was sacked.

The current board were hoping to avoid wielding the axe. 

But a decision was made yesterday to part ways with Clement with fans demanding he was shown the door.

He survived after Gers crashed out of the Scottish Cup to Queen’s Park.

But Clement himself admitted the performance in the weekend defeat to St Mirren was an even worse display.

Asked about his future following that latest defeat – which has Gers 13 points behind rivals Celtic – he said: “Those are things the board needs to decide. 

“In the end, I believe these players want to do the right things.

“I believe I can get results with these players. 

“But I am also very disappointed with what we showed today – and I am responsible for that.

“Today was by far not the performance that we have seen in the past. 

“It was by far the worst performance from my time here.

“It’s terribly disappointing, because we were so nervous on the ball and in the duels, in everything.

“I don’t know where it’s coming from. 

“That’s my frustration and it’s also my responsibility to put a team on the pitch with the right mindset.

“I didn’t see this one coming, this nervousness, everyone below par, almost all game.

“There were a few better spells, but by far we were not what Rangers should be.

“I saw the team drifting apart in islands. 

“That’s not been the case in the past, when we’ve had difficult moments and gone behind we have reacted as a team.

“Today, it was reacting one on one and not as a team. 

“Then we don’t play the football we need to play and it’s a bad performance 

“Leadership is an important one, but leadership is also a collective one.

“In the first place it’s my responsibility.”

Time to rearm

TODAY marks three years since the start of Vladimir Putin’s brutal invasion of Ukraine — a war that has seen more than 1.3million killed or injured.

Brave Volodymyr Zelensky’s offer yesterday to step down as Ukrainian president — in answer to Donald Trump’s bogus charge that he is a dictator — shows his commitment to peace.

But he is not the problem.

Blood-soaked Putin has already sacrificed more than 860,000 of his own soldiers and is no more bothered by current losses of 1,500 a day than he is by the deaths of 12,000 Ukrainian civilians ruthlessly targeted by his forces.

He is supported in this slaughter by the terrorists of Tehran and North Korean madman Kim Jong-un.

Meanwhile, China watches on.

The world is a very dangerous place right now and Europe cannot keep relying on America to fight its battles.

Even pacifists like Stephen Fry recognise that increasing spending on defence is not about ideology. It’s about self-preservation.

Sir Keir Starmer hinted that Britain will raise defence spending to 2.5 per cent of GDP by 2030 and offer 30,000 peace-keeping troops for Ukraine.

But that is meaningless when we don’t have 30,000 troops to spare, when 2.5 per cent is not enough and 2030 is too far away.

What are we waiting for?

Jab safety

THE number of deaths from weight loss and diabetes jabs like Ozempic and Mounjaro shows they are not always the silver bullet that slimmers crave.

Used properly, these so-called “fat jabs” can be transformative for those who are overweight or have diabetes.

Wrongly taken, they can be dangerous.

Endorsed by celebrities, there is huge demand for the jabs but — as our investigation reveals — they are far too easy to get hold of.

Drug dealers have even started adding them to their menu of illicit offerings.

No one doubts the benefits of these drugs, but it is vital they are prescribed by a doctor or reputable medic or more tragedies will follow.

Thought crime

IT’S no wonder real crimes go unpunished when police are busy knocking on pensioners’ doors to warn them not to criticise Labour councillors on social media.

It appears we now live in a country where burglars and shoplifters are given a free pass while innocent people are hounded for thought crimes or just daring to say that the authorities are getting things wrong.

Police should file these ludicrous complaints of non-crime hate incidents in one place — the waste-paper basket.

SOME 82 Brits have died after using weight-loss and diabetes jabs such as Ozempic and Mounjaro.

The official figures from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency reveal the toll up to the end of January.

The Sun discovered 82 British deaths were linked to anti-fat jabs such as Ozempic and Mounjaro[/caption]

The disclosure comes as a Sun reporter paid £280 for four doses of Mounjaro without any checks.

Up to the end of January, 22 died after taking meds for weight loss, and another 60 for Type 2 diabetes, according to the official Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

MHRA chief safety officer Dr Alison Cave said professionals must always advise on whether they are necessary.

She added: “The decision to start, continue or stop treatments should be made jointly by patients and their doctor, based on full consideration of benefits and risks.”

An estimated half a million Brits take the drugs, with the total expected to double in a year.

Mounjaro, known as the King Kong of jabs, is to be rolled out on the NHS.

Sun GP Dr Zoe Williams said they can save the lives of people with “life-threatening levels of obesity”.

The NHS website warns: “Never take an anti-obesity medicine if it has not been prescribed to you. These types of medicines may not be safe for you and can cause serious side effects.”

The figures show 18 deaths were linked to Mounjaro – the brand name for tirzepatide.

Another 29 came after taking Ozempic, Rybelsus or Wegovy (also known as semaglutide).

Meanwhile, 35 Brits died after taking Saxenda and Victoza (liraglutide).

The drugs make users feel full, causing the body to burn fat.

It was revealed last year that Scots nurse Susan McGowan, 58, died after taking low-dose injections of Mounjaro over a fortnight.

A probe also found that nearly 400 people have gone to hospital after taking weight-loss drugs.

Side effects include nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea, leaving sufferers with severe dehydration.

But doctors say they have also seen “life-threatening complications”, including seizures, bowel obstruction and inflammation of the pancreas.

Model Lottie Moss, 27, says she had a seizure after taking high doses of Ozempic.

The makers of Mounjaro, Lilly UK, said patient safety is its “top priority”.

It added: “Regulatory agencies conduct extensive independent assessments of the benefits and risks of every new medicine and Lilly is committed to continually monitoring, evaluating, and reporting safety data.

“If anyone is experiencing side effects when taking any Lilly medicine, they should talk to their doctor or other healthcare professional.”
