Trump nominates TV producer, creator of ‘The Apprentice,’ to serve in new administration

Trump nominates TV producer, creator of ‘The Apprentice,’ to serve in new administration

President-elect Trump announced Saturday he has tapped the creator of ‘The Apprentice’ to serve a diplomatic role in the United Kingdom.

In a Truth Social post, Trump named Mark Burnett, a British-American TV producer who was born in London, as the next U.S. special envoy to the United Kingdom.

‘It is my great honor to appoint Mark Burnett as the Special Envoy to the United Kingdom,’ the president-elect said. ‘With a distinguished career in television production and business, Mark brings a unique blend of diplomatic acumen and international recognition to this important role.’

In addition to creating Trump’s former show ‘The Apprentice,’ Burnett also created ‘Shark Tank’ and led production of other programs such as ‘Survivor’ and ‘The Martha Stewart Show.’ In his Truth Social post, Trump said the producer had created some of the ‘biggest shows in Television History’ and touted his achievements.

‘He is the former Chairman of MGM, and has won 13 Emmy Awards!’ the Republican wrote. ‘Mark will work to enhance diplomatic relations, focusing on areas of mutual interest, including trade, investment opportunities, and cultural exchanges. Congratulations Mark!’

No one is currently serving as a U.S. special envoy to the United Kingdom. Special envoy roles are typically temporary in nature and meant to fulfill a specific mission, though Trump did not specify the purpose of the role in his announcement.

Earlier in December, Trump tapped Warren A. Stephens to serve as the U.S. ambassador to the Court of St. James, also known as the U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom.

‘Over the last 38 years, while serving as the president, chairman, and CEO of his company, Stephens Inc., Warren has built a wonderful financial services firm, while selflessly giving back to his community as a philanthropist,’ Trump said in a post on Truth Social. 

‘Warren has always dreamed of serving the United States full-time. I am thrilled that he will now have that opportunity as the top Diplomat, representing the U.S.A. to one of America’s most cherished and beloved Allies.’

Burnett did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
