I found an article from the news of the world saying that chris and laura dated whilst on the show!!

TWO rivals in The Apprentice house had a secret romance as the show was filmed.

But investment banker Chris Bates, 24, below, and management consultant Laura Moore, 22, top, put their love on hold as they battled for a £100,000 job with Lord Alan Sugar.

A pal said: "It was obvious from quite early on that there was a spark between Chris and Laura, and they were flirting a lot in the house.

However they agreed to keep a lid on it until they'd finished filming the show."

Afterwards the pair went on a series of dates and, added the pal, "got on really well".

But eventually one of them said those three little words - "You are fired" - and the romance fizzled out.

Loooll !

Laura was a management consultant - gawd I knew some of them are sh1te but Gordon Bennett....

Since this has not emerged from the start like it did with Kate and Phil, I suspect that these claims are the same as the claims that Lindi and Sophocles in S4 were dating. Especially since they are from the News of the World.

How can a 22 year old be a "Management Consultant?".

Negligible real experience and surely no professional qualifications such as accountancy or law.

Universities generally don't take applicants on on an MBA unless they have some experience. Likewise how can someone be "consulting" aged 22?

Sorry but where did NOTW get management consultant from? On the BBC site (and so in the PR packs the 'newspaper' received) Laura describes herself as a Business Development Manager aka salesperson usually. If the hacks at NOTW can't even copy and paste correctly....
