After 12 intense weeks, just two contestants remain in the competition after making it through the dreaded interview stage, in which Claude Littner made a welcome return.

Series 16 of the popular BBC show saw 16 budding entrepreneurs complete a series of challenging tasks with the hope of securing Lord Sugar’s £250,000 investment in their business.

But now 16 have become two, with just dessert parlour owner Harpreet Kaur and online pyjama business owner Kathryn Burn left in the running.

Lord Sugar might have kept his cards close to his chest so far, but in a RadioTimes.com poll viewers have voted to say that they think Harpreet will emerge victorious in the final.

Here’s everything you need to know about Harpreet, including what she had to say about joining The Apprentice 2022, and where you can follow her on social media.

Harpreet is a business woman from West Yorkshire. She currently owns a six-figure coffee and cake business, which she hopes to "level up" with Lord Sugar's investment.

Describing herself as fearless and funny, Harpreet believes she is a born leader.

Motivated by her need to be the best version of herself, she isn’t here to make friends and is ready to be Lord Sugar’s next business partner.

It's all about the money for Harpreet, who says: "I’m definitely not in business to make friends. I’m here to make money, and I’m pretty sure Lord Sugar isn’t looking for a new mate."

The contestant shared the announcement on her Instagram, alongside the caption: "SO excited to share with you all my little secret ???? The @apprenticeuk is back with a BANG????
