The Apprentice winner Dr Leah Totton sells Lord Sugar-backed cosmetics clinics [Video]

Lord Alan Sugar and The Apprentice winner and former NHS doctor Dr Leah Totton have been given a multi-million pound payout after selling a majority stake in their chain of Botox and cosmetic clinics.

Dr Leah Clinics, which was founded 11 years ago by the entrepreneur and business mogul, has been snapped up by private investment group Advanced Aesthetics Partners (AAP).

The value of the sale has not been disclosed but the business is understood to be valued at more than £7 million.

Dr Leah was crowned the winner of the BBC reality series in 2013, earning investment worth £250,000 for her start-up and entering into a business partnership with Lord Sugar.

The two, who each had a 50% stake in the firm prior to the acquisition, will remain as shareholders in the group.
