Fired Apprentice star Dr Asif Munaf has been accused of making shocking comments to his fellow candidates about ‘only having sex with virgins’.
On Thursday, BBC bosses confirmed they had dropped the former NHS doctor from their spin-off show after he made ‘a stream of anti-Jewish’ comments on social media.
Dr Munaf – who owns his own wellness brand – described Zionism as a ‘satanic cult’ in the aftermath of the October 7 terror attack.
Now, it has been revealed that Munaf allegedly made disgusting comments about sex and women to ‘horrified’ cast and crew at the show’s house.
‘Asif made the candidates feel uncomfortable. They were particularly shocked when they heard the way he spoke about sex and women,’ a source told The Sun.
‘Crew members were also horrified and could not believe someone with this attitude had made it so far in the process.’
Munaf previously hit out at the BBC, claiming ‘they did me dirty’ after the broadcaster dropped him from their spin-off show for his ‘anti-Jewish’ comments.
BBC bosses edited Munaf out of Thursday’s episode of The Apprentice: You’re Fired! in the wake of the posts.
And hitting back at the Corporation in a series of Twitter/X posts, Munaf accused the broadcaster of ‘[doing] me dirty’ before branding Israel a ‘neo-colonial white supremacist death cult’.
A spokesman for The Apprentice said earlier this month: ‘After filming had taken place, we were made aware of concerns over social media posts that Asif had made after he had left the process.
‘As soon as we were alerted, we took immediate action and spoke to Asif in detail on this. Asif took part in specialised training to understand why his posts may cause offence.’
They added: ‘No formal or informal complaints were made about Asif’s behaviour, including about the alleged comment.’
Dr Munaf insisted ‘it was not my intention to offend anyone’, and added: ‘The beliefs I hold and have shared are based on the values that I was brought up with.’
However, he has since continued to make controversial remarks about the conflict in Israel and Gaza.
Towards the end of January, he wrote that the ‘Zionist mask is falling’ and accused Israel of weaponizing the Holocaust to ‘push another fascist ideology’.
Concerns about Dr Munaf were first raised by the Jewish News after Dr Munaf appeared on BBC show Dragon’s Den.
His now defunct University of Masculinity was also criticised for its controversial postings and retweeting posts by controversial influencer Andrew Tate.
In one post about women, he reportedly asked: ‘Have you ever met a beautiful feminist?’
Meanwhile, a video on his Instagram account is said to have been titled ‘Don’t Trust What Women Say.’
