Apprentice Tom plans geek wedding
Apprentice winner Tom Pellereau has two big reasons to celebrate. Last night he was revealed as the winner of the The Apprentice 2011, pocketing a £250,000 investment from Lord Alan Sugar, but he’s also recently proposed to his girlfriend. Awwww…
Inventor Tom met his now fiancée, fellow engineer Sarah Fawcus, a few weeks before he started on The Apprentice, and he popped the question a month ago before he knew he was Lord Sugar’s winner.
“We are both big geeks and the wedding is going to be big fun,” he told The Sun. “I am very fortunate that I met Sarah before all this started. She is an engineer as well so she very well grounded. As soon as I heard I had won I spoke to her – she thinks it all mad and insane.”
Tom, 31, also reckons that being in the losing team so often actually helped his chances of winning the show, because it meant he got to spend more time with Lord Sugar,
“I am probably the most unlikely winner ever. I certainly have broken the record for the worst record – nobody has ever lost eight tasks and reached the final before.
“By losing I had a lot of time with Lord Sugar from very early on, which really helped. I knew he saw something he liked in in me, but I knew I was an underdog.”
Despite he underdog status we reckon Tom is a worthy winner.
