'The Apprentice' boss has declared he's happy to "grow old gracefully" and confessed he's turned down offers of injectable treatments from former show winner Dr Leah Totton, who runs a number of skin clinics offering non-surgical procedures.

Lord Sugar told The Sun newspaper: "Leah has been ­absolutely dying to inject me with loads of bloody things, and while my wife and daughter go to her for these things, I’ve told her, ‘No, thanks’, and haven’t let her do a thing."

He added of his pal Simon: "I mean, what has Simon done to himself? He’s a really nice chap, but he’s been looking a bit strange lately — God forbid I were to ever go down that road."

Lord Sugar - who previously underwent an operation on the skin around his eyes to help his vision - went on to conclude: "If you looked at a picture of me 20 years ago and one now, there would be a dramatic difference in the two.

"But then again I am 77 — and growing old gracefully doesn’t bother me at all."

Lord Sugar's 18th series of 'The Apprentice' is currently airing on the BBC and it reaches its conclusion on Thursday (18.04.24) when he will choose either gym owner Rachel Woolford or pie-maker Phil Turner as his new business partner.

The businessman-turned-TV star previously offered winning candidates a £100,000-a-year job at one of his companies, but he recently admitted he needed to make a change because that idea wasn't "working out too well" in the long run.

He told Metro.co.uk: "The regrets were effectively after series seven, that the giving a person a job was not working out too well.

"That’s when I said I can’t do that anymore, it’s causing too much embarrassment amongst my workers and I want to change the format to going into business with somebody. And from then on, it’s taken off like a rocket!"
