The Apprentice’s Jessica Cunningham and Courtney Wood to get away on loved-up ‘Christmas holiday’ after confirming romance
The entrepreneurs found love while filming the BBC show and recently confirmed their romance
THE Apprentice’s Jessica Cunningham and Courtney Wood are reportedly jetting off on a loved-up break “immediately after Christmas.”
Despite failing to find an investment from Lord Sugar, the entrepreneurs found love instead and have been secretly dating since meeting during filming.
A source told the : “It's true, they are seeing one another. And they have booked a holiday, for immediately after Christmas.
“The relationship is in the early stages though. They are going to give it a go and take it from there.”
Seemingly confirming their plans, Jessica tweeted: “Soooo excited for a little mini break away next week,” alongside an emoji of a couple with a heart between them.
Gushing about her new man, Jessica recently told The Sun: “To be fair we did have a romance on the show. It is early days now. We are seeing how everything goes. He is a good-looking lad.
"He is charming and considerate. We do like each other though and we are just going to take things slowly."
The mum-of-three hasn’t been short of male attention since appearing on the BBC show.
However, she’s also faced backlash from female viewers for stripping down for a sexy photoshoot ahead of her lingerie collection launch.
Jessica tells The Sun: “I’ve had a couple of women who have criticised me for posing in my lingerie and said that I’m not a credible business woman but I think that is an absolute load of s***.
“If you look at people like Carol Vorderman, Michelle Mone, Victoria Beckham, Kim Kardashian – they are all successful women who have posed in lingerie.
“It doesn’t take away the years of experience, the years of business and what they’ve gone through but not only that - I am a mum of three and I work really hard for my figure.”
She added: “I am bringing out a lingerie collection next month so it is only natural for me to want to create hype and a buzz about what I’m doing. But instead I have been told that I haven’t got a brain.
"I work hard to get my figure the way it is – it makes sense for me to become the face of my brand. If I started off my career as a model and then went into business I would have beauty and brains.
"But because I started off in business and have now turned my hand to modeling people are saying it takes away my credibility.
"It annoys me that when a man is portrayed as sexy he is successful and charming – it is perfectly okay for a man to have sex appeal but as soon as a woman that has got a brain between her ears poses in lingerie it takes that credibility away.”
