A VAN owned by Apprentice winner Alana Spencer who opened up a cafe in Llandudno has had its windows smashed. 

Over the weekend, an image of the damaged coffee van appeared on social media. Alana, who runs Ridiculously Rich, a luxury handmade cake company, and has a cafe by the padding pool in Craig-y-Don, posted on Facebook to voice her disappointment replying that she was "so upset".

She said: "Hello all, it’s my van. Honestly so upset! We can’t get it until next week. Been waiting on a part for the tire [sic] that broke and that just arrived. Now we need to fix this. Thank you to all the kind people who have been in touch. As if business isn’t tough enough at the moment. I really hope they catch who did it because it’s just not ok!!!

"The ironic thing is the tire [sic] we had been waiting for came in the day before this happened so we were literally just about to remove it!"

The coffee van had been parked up, outside the cafe in Llandudno, from some weeks. Alana had been waiting for a replacement wheel. 

She posted a photo of the van's wheel on social media in November after the Llandudno Christmas Extravaganza.
