The BBC's planned Celebrity Apprentice special reportedly faced disruption as Laura Whitmore pulled out just days before filming was due to begin.
Irish TV star Laura Whitmore, 39, reportedly withdrew from the BBC's planned Celebrity Apprentice special just days before filming was scheduled to begin, causing significant disruption to the production team. The special was intended to commemorate the 20th anniversary of The Apprentice, with various celebrities participating in business-related challenges under the scrutiny of Lord Alan Sugar.
But the line-up won't include former Love Island host Laura. It's been claimed Laura infuriated BBC bosses by pulling out of the star-studded version of the long-running show with little warning - reportedly leaving TV execs "in an awkward position". The contestants will all start by being given the sack… as they head off to Lapland to help Santa. Strictly Come Dancing star Angela, 41, will bring her keen eye for interior design and fashion. Tom, 34 – famed for his Cockney accent and “Bosh” catchphrase – ran The Fluffy Pillow Company and started Bosh Beds in the pandemic.
The charity special will air later this year. Keeping tight-lipped about the show, which is still under wraps, Lord Sugar said: “There has been talk of it. They’re quite fun, we all do it for charity. I’m quite open about who gets to take part, as long as the production team don’t choose Boris Johnson.”
