The Apprentice champion Harpreet Kaur was forced to make a swift change to her online presence after millions saw her win the BBC show on Thursday night.
A front runner in the eyes of fans since the early days of the new series, Harpreet battled it out against pyjama entrepreneur Kathryn Burn in the final, with both of them joined by former contestants for the last challenge which tasked them with launching a new business, with Harpreet pitching Oh So Yum.
Harpreet went into The Apprentice as co-owner of dessert company Barni's, a brand she created with her sister, but as the final episode went out, Barni's website came up as no longer available for those who tried to access it from her Instagram bio. And, within moments of her being confirmed as the 2022 winner, Harpreet had launched Oh So Yum online and changed her bio from owner of Barni's to owner of Oh So Yum.

There was a final TV treat for Apprentice fans in the immediate aftermath of the final, when You're Hired went out on BBC2, hosted by comedian Tom Allen. While not present in the studio , Lord Sugar appeared on screen from Florida and teased that one of the first things he and new business partner Harpreet would look to do was to open a new store.
Many viewers argued that The Apprentice result was obvious, with one tweeting: "I'm pretty sure lord sugar knew Harpreet was gonna be the winner since the 2nd episode LOL," and some spotted that the Oh So Yum site had actually been made visible before Harpreet was announced as winner. One eagle eyed fan took to Twitter to post: "Just watched Harpreet’s site being changed to Oh so Yum, so my guess, she’s the winner!"
