'The Apprentice' reject Raef Bjayou has reportedly signed up to be a presenter on 'The Richard and Judy Show'.
The 27-year-old entrepreneur - who attracted a host of fans following his performance on Sir Alan Sugar's business reality TV show - is expected to start on the Channel 4 chat show this autumn.
A source said: "Raef is thrilled with the Richard and Judy deal. He has never shied away from the fact that 'The Apprentice' launched his career, but he is keen to carve out a name for himself as a presenter, not just a reality TV star."
After his appearance on 'The Richard and Judy Show' last month, Richard Madeley - who co-hosts the show with wife Judy Finnegan - said: "Raef said his real ambition was to be a talk-show host so we took him up on it and invited him on to our programme for a live audition. Raef's report was hilarious - the guy's a natural. Expect to see more of him in the future."
I'm hoping to use skills I learned in 'The Apprentice'.
Raef has also signed up to star in reality show 'The Underdog Show' on LivingTV.
He will be teamed up with Suz, a two-year-old orphaned dog, for the series which will see him try to teach the animal tricks in a bid to impress judges Brendan Cole, Donelda Guy and Steve Mann.
He said: "I'm hoping to use skills I learned in 'The Apprentice'."
