place-in-the-sun-1A BRITISH TV celeb insists Brexit wonโ€™t put a stop to Brits buying and moving to Spain.

 
A Place in the Sun presenter Jasmine Harman told the Olive Press she believes demand will continue despite the invoking of Article 50 expected this week.

 
โ€œIf anything we are seeing people moving a bit quicker to get things sorted out as they see the timescale changing,โ€ she said while filming a show on the Costa del Sol this month.

 
โ€œThe conditions havenโ€™t changed and it is still great value here,โ€ she added. โ€œI love it out here.โ€

 
Harman, 42, who has been with the show since 2004, was showing retired couple Steve and Janis Pidgeon, both 66, around the Manilva/Casares area.

 
A former expat herself, she is a huge critic of Brexit, insisting that it makes โ€˜no senseโ€™ at all to the UK.

โ€œIt is a terrible decision, one of the worst the UK has ever made.โ€

 
She continued: โ€œI really hope it doesnโ€™t have an impact on young British people living and working in Europe.

 
โ€œI had the excellent opportunity of working in Portugal for four years and I would hate to see my own kids not having the same chance.โ€
