A Place In The Sun Host Left Gobsmacked as Guest Bursts into Tears
A dramatic episode of A Place In The Sun has left viewers stunned as a guest on the show broke down in tears before making a shocking U-turn over a house in Italy. The emotional moment occurred when married couple Natasha and Tim, from Gloucestershire, were shown a one-bedroom property in Lucca, Tuscany, for £103,000.
According to The Mirror, the couple had high hopes when the search started and were blown away when they were shown the home for a veritable steal. Host, Jasmine Harman, had taken the hopeful house hunters to Italy where they were looking to snap up a property in the resplendent region of Lucca, Tuscany, for £130,000. Starting to cry, standing outside the property, Natasha told Jasmine she’d cracked it, gushing: “I’m in shock!” Somewhat alarmed, Jasmine asked: “Tell me what’s going on Natasha?!” Natasha replied: “Just the architecture, where it is. You’ve blown my mind.”
The Mirror reports that things took a turn when the couple went into the apartment, leaving viewers at home stunned. Despite falling in love with the one-bedroom property, the couple ultimately decided it wasn’t for them, with Natasha admitting they preferred another place Jasmine had shown them. After entering the apartment Natasha said she was struggling to “get a feel for the space”, while Tim, who initially declared: “Sold!” when he was shown the outside of the property, took issue with the small windows, which couldn’t be changed since the building was listed.
As reported by The Mirror, sighing, Tim said: “With deep regrets, it is not a contender”. Meanwhile Natasha stoically admitted that she “really wanted it to work,” before admitting that she saw more potential in the first property they viewed. That first-floor apartment had two bedrooms, a terrace, large bathroom and a utility room, over a modern, open-plan design. The couple had agreed the property was “in with a chance” of becoming their dream home, with Natasha being “pleasantly surprised”.
However, in another U-turn the couple conceded it was too close to the road, despite it being £7,000 under budget at £123,000, which is around half the price of properties located within the walls of Lucca – according to Jasmine. In the end, it was the fifth and final property, which seemed to be the strongest contender for the couple. Nestled in Nozzano Castello, the three-bedroom property was priced under £138,000. It boasted a large terrace perfect for al fresco cooking and a large interior, leaving Natasha and Tim pleased.
The couple’s final decision was revealed in the Mirror article, where Natasha said: “We both love it and on the same page, it has knocked the first one off radar.” Tim later announced that Jasmine had “nailed it” in a promising update. Unfortunately, in the third and final U-turn of the episode, the pair rejected the property – and every other one Jasmine had shown them – because “the pros and cons list had more cons”. Explaining their reasons for turning down the apartments, Tim, who has MS, expressed concerns about the stairs, admitting he doesn’t know what may happen as the condition progresses in the future.
The article from The Mirror also mentioned that however, the couple insisted that they would return to look for more properties in Tuscany in the near future. As reported by The Mirror, the show continues to captivate audiences with its mix of drama and property hunting.
