The Sun reports that one of Solomon’s mates even posted details of the tape on Twitter, before having a change of heart and deleting the message.

“He has found himself in similar situations many times before.”

A show insider adds that Solomon and the BBC are “both hoping his conquests keep quiet”, stating: “He is still on good terms with his ex, so while she has obviously told friends about the tape, fingers are crossed that she won’t leak it.

“But there are no guarantees that she, or any other former flames, won’t come out of the woodwork and reveal what he’s been up to.”

So far, Solomon hasn’t had an easy ride on the show and has narrowly avoided being fired by Lord Sugar.

Solomon isn’t the only contestant with an interesting past either, as it was recently revealed that Daniel had been lined-up by TV bosses for the lead role in ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ - however, he lost out to Mark Wright.
