Speaking to The Sun, they continued: "She's also become a powerful force for good campaigning and raising awareness for those with disabilities.
"The Giovanni link is unfortunate to say the least, but above all else Tasha is a gorgeous girl who deserves this amazing opportunity."
Ghouri, who was born completely deaf, has described the disability as her "superpower" and has inspired many fans.
Her romance with Pernice came to light after she'd been named as part of the Love Island 2022 cast.
