"She's proved she understands the business," said Lord Sugar's trusted aide, Karren Brady, who admitted she was initially sceptical about Luisa's attitude to business.

During the series it was revealed that Luisa had ended her six-month romance with her co-star boyfriend Jordan Poulton days after the show returned to TV screens.According to the Sunday People, the couple quickly became an item while filming Lord Sugar's hit show, but Luisa decided to break up with Oxford graduate Jordan because she thought it might ruin her credibility.According to the paper, she has gone on to brand their fling as one of her "biggest mistakes".
