The latest episode of the Apprentice began with a shock – a candidate left the competition.
Wait, isn’t that supposed to come at the end of the show?
It may only be week four, but Aleksandra King had already had enough, kicking off her team’s pep talk at the beginning of the task by announcing she was off.
The 38-year-old business consultancy owner said: “You guys, I just have to say something. I’m going to leave the process… I’m really sorry, I’m just not enjoying it.”
Damn it Alexsandra, I had you in my Apprentice Sweepstake! #TheApprentice

Well, we didn’t see that coming.
Not even 9:15 and someone has already left The Apprentice, absolute scenes

Aleksandra showed more strength to leave this bunch of toxic individuals than to stay on suffering #apprentice

Maybe Aleksandra should have planned her exit better, though…
If u were quitting the apprentice surely u would stay in bed & have a lie in, not get up half 5, put ur lippy & best clobber on, then quit

She explained to camera after dropping the bombshell: “I’ve found the process overwhelming, stressful, really intense and I want to go home to my husband and kids now.”
Perhaps she just didn’t fancy this week’s fashion retailing task.
