The Apprentice: Anisa Topan denies having an affair with fellow contestant Andrew Brady

Last month it was reported that Apprentice candidate Anisa Topan had cheated on her now-husband Tristan in the show’s luxurious house whilst filming the BBC show earlier this year.

The 36-year-old businesswoman was said to have defied the show’s sex ban by bedding her 26-year-old competitor Andrew Brady – a claim that Anisa has now laughed off.

Both Anisa and Andrew exited the show alongside fellow contestant Charles Burns in last night’s shock triple-firing, and Anisa has finally broken her silence on the affair rumours.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, Anisa said: “These are not reports, they are rumours.

“I am happily married, I am in PR – I represent very high profile people so I know what it’s like when things are said about people in the public eye.

“My husband is the most amazing man, and it’s not been hard at all to deal with these rumours.”

Speaking separately to the publication, Andrew also denied the claims.

He said: “It’s all rumour – I couldn’t possibly say where it’s come from, I don’t know. I’m happily eating sweets.”

Speaking about the alleged affair at the time, a source had told The Sun: “Andrew has always been a bit of a playboy.

“There was a lot of sexual tension between them for days and one night they ended up exploring their feelings for each other.

“It’s natural for people to connect after living together.”

Anisa married her fiance Tristan last month.
