New Dragon’s son has £2-A-DAY job
Leo’s swell day £35M SARA WON’T LET KIDS BE SPOILT
DRAGONS’ Den star Sara Davies has a company worth £35million but insists on putting her fiveyear-old son to work for £2 a day.
The craft entrepreneur, 35, will be the hit TV show’s youngest-ever investor when she makes her debut tonight.
And not only will Sara be passing on her corporate expertise to budding tycoons but she is also intent on setting her sons Oliver, five, and two-year-old Charlie along the right path in life.
Sara built up her business Crafter’s Companion, now worth £35million, in her university bedroom from savings of only £5,000. “But just because I’m a lot wealthier now doesn’t mean I want my kids to grow up differently to how I did,” said the Co Durham-born new Dragon.
“I worked in my parents’ decorating store from six. My mum would get me in every Saturday polishing the paint and straightening the wallpaper for 50p.
“My five-year-old son will help out at the shop, which my sister owns, and she’ll have him doing the same thing that I was back then. With a bit of inflation he will get a couple of quid. My boys can negotiate much better than I can.”
Sara predicted that her sons will be disappointed by her appearance when TITANIC TIT actor Leonardo Dicaprio loo looks like he’s been tucking into the spaghetti as he holidays with gir girlfriend Camila Morrone in Italy.
T The actor, 44, showed off his they watch her on BBC2 tonight. “There’ll be hell l on, as I’m sure they think I’ll be wearing a dragon outfit and d going to a hill with a stone over it,” she laughed.
But she knows ws her new high profile will not faze aze her lads.
“I ’ m on s hopping channels a lot and they watch me on TV so this wil l make no difference to o them,” she said.
Sara is making nine investments ts paunch as he strolled and jet-skied with Camila, 22, in Positano.
And Leo could not resist admiring her shapely rear. He’s clearly gone overboard for her. in th this series and said fellow Dragons Drag did not expect her to come com in with all guns blazing. “I g give them a run for their mon money,” she added.
“T “They may have felt, ‘She’s nice, we’ll take her under our wing wing’. But I fight them. I took bu business off Peter Jones. I’m a smiling assassin.”
Sara insisted her millions ha have not changed her and add added: “I really don’t want Dra Dragons’ Den to do so.”
