Amy Anzel has revealed that she “feels sorry” for this year’s cohort of The Apprentice candidates as she claims that the producers are “manipulating” the BBC One show.
The flame-haired American businesswoman, 49, shot to fame when she competed in The Apprentice’s 16th series in 2022.
And now Amy claims that producers are being unfair towards the 2023 candidates.

Saying how it’s hard to believe that the series is approached the final few episodes, Amy explained that there is “no clear front runners” as to who will go into business with Lord Sugar.
“Everyone is being made to look a fool,” she continued, before adding: “The show is now about who loses less. Who could eff up the least. And that’s not what this show should be about.”
Amy said that when the show first started in 2005, it was “more of a proper BBC business competition” and claims that back then, things were different.

Comparing the newer seasons to the older, she went on: “I don’t think that the producers constantly were manipulating and being like puppeteers with these candidates.
“I really feel sorry for them, because you’re always gonna come out a loser.”
Elsewhere in her exclusive chat with us, she touched on how the format of the show feels “boring” and “formulaic” with the “same old car crashes”.

Although she admits that she doesn’t know who will win, she thinks that there “are favourites” based on the “treatment of the candidates.”
When Amy shot to fame on The Apprentice last year, she was allegedly “banned” from the final after she was fired.
Chatting to us last year, Amy backed up the claims that she was “banned” from the final when she spoke of the “unfair” treatment she received.
She recalled: “I remember in the boardroom once Lord Sugar said ‘you’re so thick’ to me initially, in one of the first boardrooms.”
The Apprentice continues on BBC One and iPlayer next Thursday.
