She was the gutsy mum-of-two who clawed her way up from a troubled childhood to land a £100,000-a-year job as Lord Sugar’s Apprentice.
Stella English won the show in front of 10million viewers in December 2010, with the tycoon hailing her determination and “never say die” attitude.
But now, less than 10 months later, Stella’s dreams have been shattered after Lord Sugar told her: “You’re fired!”
The ex-banker was stunned to be told she would be out of a job by Christmas in a devastating boardroom meeting with the straight-talking businessman 10 days ago.
