Secret Millionaire star | Employee's £35k theft leaves founder bankrupt and staff jobless

A business founder who appeared on the show Secret Millionaire, was forced to sell his company and lay off six employees, after a newly employed accounts assistant fraudulently stole £35,000 from the business.
