Former Love Island host Laura Whitmore, 39, has reportedly pulled out of the BBC's Celebrity Apprentice special just days before filming was due to start, causing a major headache for the production team. It's been suggested that Laura upset BBC bosses by withdrawing from the star-studded version of the long-running show at short notice - allegedly leaving TV execs "in an awkward position".
