Glasgow's Apprentice star Reece Donnelly to launch podcast after show exit

The Apprentice's Glaswegian star Reece Donnelly is launching a podcast after his shock exit from the hit BBC business show.

Reece was reportedly one of the favourites to win the £250,000 investment from Lord Sugar but he left the show due to 'health issues'.

It's not the last we'll see of the 26-year-old who runs his own theatre school and management company.

Reece is launching The Scottish CEO Show - a podcast where he hopes to "educate, inspire and empower" his listeners.

Making the announcement on TikTok, he said: "For anyone who knows me or follows me or has watched me on Lord Sugar's Apprentice, you will know that I have been on a massive journey of self-development over the past five years.

"Now, at 26, I sit here as the CEO of two successful companies, so I'd like to make it my mission to educate, inspire and empower everybody else in Scotland to put their self out there and try and achieve what they want to achieve.

"I’ve messed up in business more than I’ve made up and I want to make that very clear from the outset but this is an opportunity for me to sit down with those that inspire me, that have educated me and I have lined up some very special guests.

"I have business coaches, my life coach, I've got friends, I've got massive CEOs, but ultimately we're going to sit down and talk about the mistakes, the mishaps and the make-ups that have made our businesses over the years.

"But most importantly, we're going to have a right good laugh."

The Scottish CEO Show will be available on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcast - and the first episode is coming soon.
