MARNIE Swindells was last night unveiled as the winner of The Apprentice, hooking £250,000 from Lord Alan Sugar for her boxing gym business.
Her win comes in the wake of the Mirror revealing the controversy surrounding a £50,000 loan her firm received to help it through lockdown.
Following her victory, Marnie, 28, a lawyer turned boxing medal winner, said she was thrilled to be a woman making it in a typically male-dominated industry.
"What I'm doing goes to show that you can be successful in any industry if you put the work in," she said.
"The women were definitely the most successful candidates on this series.
"Women can do it all. We are on a mission to prove what women are capable of. Women are getting to see me taking charge, storming in and not taking any notice of the barriers.
