THE Apprentice’s Avi Sharma has paid a beautiful tribute to his little sister after her death.
The 25-year-old, who took part in the BBC show last year, bravely spoke out about his loss in a touching post on Instagram.
Sharing a sweet picture of the pair together, Avi wrote: “Today, we said goodbye to my little sis, Evani.
“Evani was genuinely 1 in a trillion—so selfless, and such a bright spark. I’m going to miss you like crazy.
“This experience has taught me to appreciate every moment. I’ve broken down in front of my family many times this week.
“As a ‘masculine’ man, this isn’t how I’ve been raised.
“I’ve been conditioned to hold it in; to be strong for other people. That’s the normal message, right?
“Recently, I’ve been completely in tune with my emotions. I was my true self.
“You turned this into a beautiful time of reflecting and reminiscing about you.
“You left us the day after turning 16. What saddens me most is when I think of how bright your future could’ve been.
“You were one of those rare people who could achieve anything they set their mind to.
“But I find solace in knowing that you’re no longer suffering.
“You give me strength. I know you’re watching over me.
“Evani, I promise to make you proud.”
Many fans rushed to share their condolences with Avi, as well as former cast mates.
Rochelle Anthony said: “Omg avi! I am so sorry to hear!! I had no clue! 
truly heart broken for you all! Sending love to you and the family xx.”
Dani Donovan said: Avi this is heartbreaking I am so sorry for your loss. Sending so much love to you and your family.
