I was on The Apprentice – the truth about THOSE taxi departure scenes left me stunned
A WOMAN who was recently kicked off The Apprentice has revealed the shocking truth about the famous taxi scenes.
Amina Khan, who was in line to potentially become Lord Sugar's business partner, was sent home after the disastrous negotiation task in episode four of the BBC show.
She's been opening up about her time on the show on her social media pages, and recently shared a TikTok slideshow documenting some behind-the-scenes secrets.
In one picture, Amina left people shocked as she revealed the famous walking out to the taxi scenes - when the axed contestant leaves an office building with their suitcase and gets into a black cab - were the first thing she filmed.
"We film the walking out after you're fired scene weeks before we enter the process," she said.
"Was collected by the famous Apprentice taxis here, hehe."

The scenes of Amina actually in the taxi, where she talks about her exit from the show, were the only ones that were actually filmed after she was fired.
"I was very upset," Amina told Virginradio.co.uk of the scenes when she was filmed inside the cab.
"You probably saw in the cab scene - my eyes were red, my mascara dripping down my face.
"That was because before that, I just had a massive meltdown!”
Elsewhere in the TikTok slideshow, Amina revealed she had to have two outfits she was planning to wear in the boardroom approved by production.
She also had to get the seal of approval for her departure outfit - a double breasted black coat and beige scarf, over light trousers and heels.
To take part in the show, Amina had to leave her baby daughter behind - for the first time since she gave birth.
She admitted that wast the hardest thing about the process, especially as she had to go "cold turkey" with breastfeeding.
"Every morning I woke up, my chest was full or milk and swollen," she wrote.
"I was so worried I'd end up sick and super engorged.
"I had to manually pump the milk out every morning - even when I was at The Apprentice house at 2am in the morning, as I had no pump and no time."
People were quick to comment on Amina's TikTok, with one writing: "Lovely seeing your journey, you inspire me as a mum of a six month old going into my new business that it is all possible even with a little one."
"This was the best insight!" another added.
"Well done for your achievement. Your daughter will be so proud."

"None of us know how much the contestants are suffering mentally and physically," a third commented.
"So props to you for getting through the process."
