Rochelle can be seen cutting Marnie’s son’s hair. Marnie then says Rochelle is someone she has “known for so long”, The Sun reports.

“She’s always there when I need someone for advice,” the Georgie Shore star said of Rochelle, who owns The Dolls House Salon in Milton Keynes.

But Rochelle is now battling it out against 17 other contestants vying to become Lord Sugar’s business partner in the BBC’s The Apprentice - which made its return to our screens on Thursday.

“I deserve Lord Sugar’s investment because I know the hair industry like the back of my hand and Lord Sugar knows the business. Together, we would be an absolute force to be reckoned with,” said Rochelle, ahead of appearing on the show.

“I’m always being compared to the Kim Kardashian of the business world because I’m doing business with a hint of glam.”

Rochelle can be seen to live the glamour lifestyle on her Instagram, often pictured on holiday with her husband, and children Bentley, five, and Hallie, three.
