To think that although gorgeous, Leah looks older than 24!

Just that really.

I'm watching the apprentice final and just noticed she is 24, yes she is a beautiful lady but I'm shocked at the fact she's 24!

not beautiful as i see it

newestbridearound · 17/07/2013 21:42

I've been talking about this with DH tonight- I honestly couldn't believe it. I'm 25 and I thought she was a good 5 years older than me at least!

lessonsintightropes · 17/07/2013 21:44

I think she looks young but very, very polished and a bit unnatural - but appreciate that lots of people love women to look that way far too lazy personally Smile

That's what happens when you have Botox and fillers too young.

Glad I'm not the only one to think it!

Newestbride, I'm also 25 and was thinking the same thing!

I don't think she's gorgeous at all.

meganorks · 17/07/2013 21:48

I thought that. She looks like she has had fillers on her lips so wondered if that was ageing her. I think I associate those kinds of treatments with older women.

Hmm maybe I was just trying to be polite with gorgeous and beautiful. Yes, she isn't actually my idea of those descriptions but I didn't want my statement of she looks older than 24 to mean she looks old and hagged if that makes sense!

It's the immobile forehead. Great advertisement for aesthetic medicine.

primallass · 17/07/2013 21:50

How on earth is she an 'expert' in something she has never done. SurAlan has a crush I think.

And also, please correct me if I'm wrong, but can she actually be a certifiable dr at 24?

Good gracious, I thought she was much older.

newestbridearound · 17/07/2013 21:52

I certainly don't think she's unattractive, but there's something about her that makes her seem quite cold looking. I think like a lot of you it may be due to the procedures or perhaps due to the make up she wears- can't stand the nude coloured lipstick she had on for a lot of the series!

Oh god yes that lipstick!!

She's 25 isn't she? But still, she looks older. No one needs Botox at that age.

LastTangoInDevonshire · 17/07/2013 21:57

She wouldn't be leaning over me with a needle unless she got rid of all the false hair extensions !

minibmw2010 · 17/07/2013 21:59

Her eyes are oddly dead looking, she's like a live barbie doll, very strange. I can only assume she hasn't actually finished her training to be out at 24/25 but I think (and happy to be corrected) that you can call yourself Dr once you have finished your first year of med school?

saintmerryweather · 17/07/2013 21:59

shes not beautiful i dont think, shes quite strange looki.g really. as an advert for her business i dont think id go for it!

minibmw2010 · 17/07/2013 22:01

In that look back through the clips she had obviously had so much Botox she could barely smile ..

WipsGlitter · 17/07/2013 22:02

If she started med school at 18, five years = 23, then into your first year of hospital training.

She has an immobile forehead because she is 24.

BOF · 17/07/2013 22:02

She has completed her medical degree and is in her first or second year of clinical training. Doctors are not getting younger, and neither are police officers, so...

No I wouldn't either, but then again i don't think I'm likely to ever go for any of those types of procedures.

And I would imagine that many of the people who would have those procedures appeal to her look.

Mumblepot26 · 17/07/2013 22:04

Yes yes yes I agree, she has that "oh so dull" homogenous, botoxed, personality-less face yawn yawn

Remotecontrolduck · 17/07/2013 22:04

I think she's very pretty and has lovely hair. She's obviously very intelligent as well.
