What Apprentice winners who cut ties with Lord Sugar did next – from Tripadvisor storm to stripper fury & standing as MP

SCOOPING a £250,000 investment and the expertise of one of Britain’s best business brains is certainly not to be sniffed at if you’re a budding entrepreneur.
But for some winners of The Apprentice, Lord Alan Sugar’s involvement appears to be a little too much, and has led to them parting ways.
This week, we revealed how 2018 winner Sian Gabbidon has split with the business magnate and his company Amvest Limited, which had “significant control” of her fashion business.
Lord Sugar’s position was “terminated” last month, making the 29-year-old the latest in a long line of former contestants to cut ties.
While a handful of past winners have gone on to build big business empires, the same cannot be said for most of those who decided to go it alone.
From bad Tripadvisor reviews to crippling debt, we reveal what happened next.
