BBC star defends Love Island's Tasha Ghouri as Laura Whitmore tries to mock her

Laura Whitmore sparked a backlash when she tried to mock Tasha Ghouri on Saturday Kitchen.

The Irish Love Island host, 37, made a playful jibe at ITV islander Tasha on Matt Tebbut’s BBC daytime show, Saturday Kitchen.

Many fans will likely be wondering what Laura thinks of this year’s cast given she’s the host of the villa dating show, but it appears she’s not impressed with Tasha’s boozing knowledge.

Making her Saturday Kitchen debut, Laura said that the eight series of Love Island was the “best series ever”.

She went on: “It’s a lot of fun. It’s nice to be on a show where I can talk to you guys as I normally go into hiding.”

Wine buff Helen McGinn told the studio how she had stocked up on some rosé as Iain and Laura love it.

She said: “There might be rosé as I know how much you and Iain [Stirling, Laura’s husband] love it on a Friday night.”

Laura giggled before claiming Tasha had got confused in thinking rosé was red and white wine mixed together.

She said: “Also, Tasha on Love Island this year she thought rose wine was red white and white wine mixed together which is apparently not how you make it.”

However, she was surprised when Helen hit back: “Well I have to say Tasha’s not completely wrong”.

A taken aback Laura replied:” Oh! Go on.”

Helen explained: “In Champagne you are allowed to mix red and white wine to make rose, but only in Champagne in France.”

Laura retorted: “Do you think Tasha thought that? Do you think Tasha thought that?”

Helen smiled as she said: “I love Tasha!”

Some Saturday Night Kitchen viewers didn’t seem to take well to Laura’s remarks about Tasha as they slammed the host during the show.

One wrote: “One minute in and Laura has already tried to shame someone else’s intelligence, only for it to backfire and she has come out as the stupid one [laughing emoji]”

Another said: “Will Laura Whitmore be eating a slice of humble pie on #SaturdayKitchen? We can only hope.”
