A SCOTTISH candidate on The Apprentice has quit the show, it has been reported.
Theatre school entrepreneur Reece Donnelly will not be appearing in tonight's episode, which sees the candidates travel to Dubai for the latest task.
He has cited health issues as the reason for being forced to quit and not take part in the show anymore, the Daily Star reports.
Since quitting the show, he told the Daily Star: "I could not continue in The Apprentice due to being unable to complete the task in Dubai for health reasons.
"My goal of being on The Apprentice was to showcase that Scotland has amazing businesses and entrepreneurs. I really hope I’ve done that.
"I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time on the show and I’m looking forward to watching my fellow candidates in the rest of the series.
"I’m so grateful for my time with Lord Sugar and the team."
After getting his degree in Drama from the University of Sunderland, Reece was awarded the James McAvoy scholarship at The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in 2014.
He soon developed a passion for teaching, directing and growing new talent in Scotland which led to him founding the Theatre School of Scotland.
