Speaking to the about his decision to get the tat, he said: “I thought adding Lord Sugar would be a great reminder of my time on the show. I've always said my tattoos tell my story and now this part of my life is there forever.

“Lord Sugar had a bit of a dig at when he said 'my tattoos tell a story - what am I a Kindle?'

“So I wanted the tattoo to tell the story of what happened to me on the show which ultimately of course ended up with me being fired which is why he's holding the gun.
