DRAGON'S Den star Sara Davies looked in fantastic shape as she put on a glam display while on a work trip in Florida.

The Hartlepool-born entrepreneur, 38, became the show's youngest ever Dragon at 35 when she replaced Jenny Campbell in the 17th series, which aired in August 2019.

Sara appears on the show with other judges – Deborah Meaden, Steven Bartlett, Peter Jones and Touker Suleyman as budding entrepreneurs try to convince her to invest in their business ventures.

She is currently in Tampa, Florida, working on some new exciting projects, as she told her 262k Instagram followers.

The business mogul was all smiles as she posed on the set of HSN, a shopping channel in the United States similar to QVC in the United Kingdom.

Sara's product, Gemini II, was featured on HSN, and the star couldn't be happier, as she raved about it in the caption.

The entrepreneur looked slimmer than ever in a bright purple leopard print belted shirt dress that accentuated her figure.

Her platinum blonde locks were styled in loose waves with plenty of volume, and she wore full glam make-up.

In a lengthy post, Sara penned: "Apologies upfront… gushing gratitude post incoming….!

I’ve just boarded my flight home after a whirlwind 48h in Tampa (Florida) – I flew in to do the world launch of our amazing new Gemini II machine and just reflecting on the past 2 days I’m feeling totally overcome with emotion."

"The work that my team have put in to design, develop, engineer and bring to market this new product is phenomenal – and that hit me like a tidal wave at midnight on Monday evening as I stood on air and launched the product in a record breaking sales show for @hsn

The response and feedback from our customers and loyal fan base around the world has been nothing short of incredible and I’m so humbled by the gratitude and support that our customers continue to show us after 17 incredible years in business."

"I also feel quite guilty – for being the one who gets to stand up on air and steal the limelight when it’s the hard work of my amazing staff who got me there. It’s their pursuit of perfection in everything we do as a company that puts us at the forefront of the craft market globally, and not a day goes by that I take for granted how lucky I am to have the most incredible people in the world work for me!

To all my staff who made this a reality (you know who you are) – WE ABSOLUTELY SMASHED IT TEAM! You should be so proud of yourselves!"

"And watch out world – the new Gemini II is coming to a retailer near you wherever you are really soon and you’re not going to know what’s hit you!"

In her new book, We Can All Make It, which was released on 28th April, 2022 Sara shares behind-the-scene secrets from the hit BBC show – and reveals what it really takes to convince her to invest in a business proposition…

In her book, Sara also tells how she enjoys using her TV profile to be a role model to "any young girls who might not see elsewhere that, in business, being ordinary can be enough."

But, she notes, Deborah Meaden has a very different approach.

Sara recalls how during her very first pitch in the Den, the Dragons were all asked by a street-food stand to queue up for some food, before sitting back down and eating it while the pitch got underway.

But when Touker got up before her, Sara says she joked: 'Oh, come on. ladies first…ladies first.'

However, the comment didn't go down well with Deborah, who "barked" at her: "We're not 'ladies and gentleman.' We're all just Dragons."

"And we're all the same."

Sara – who praises Deborah for being "incredibly kind" and supporting her with advice and texts during her time in the Den and on Strictly Come Dancing – says she was keen to make her mark.

She adds the reason is because she's likely spent years "fighting to get the same level of respect."
