Sir Alan Sugar suspected that Katie Hopkins had entered The Apprentice purely to win and gain some exposure but little did he know!
Katie’s step daughter Charlie McKinney has today claimed that Katie is very impressed with the idea of celebrity and also applied to be on Big Brother. If I am honest i think she was probably better suited to BB.
McKinney told the Daily Mirror: “Katie went for Big Brother and was a stand-by. She’s very into celebrity. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her on the next Celebrity Big Brother.”

A show insider told The News Of The World: “The contestants were all letting their hair down after a tense day doing the doggie task when they had to design a pet product.
“There was no stopping Katie and Paul as the booze flowed. They had been flirting outrageously and obviously just couldn’t wait any longer. They ran up the stairs giggling like schoolkids to the empty room and slammed the door behind them. Next morning, Paul admitted they’d had sex. Read more & comment »

Paul Callaghan and Katie Hopkins have decided to escape the wrath of Sir Alan Sugar and call off their brief fling.
The pair had infuriated Sir Alan by getting together while filming for the BBC’s latest Apprentice series. Sir Alan was adamant that contestants should not mix business with pleasure.
Seems like they now agree.
