Michelle Mone: I'm moving away from Scotland

The bra tycoon, who founded Ultimo, tweeted to confirm her plans to move this morning, saying many factors had been involved in her decision. She later tweeted that her career success had been a factor. This second tweet from Mone has now been deleted from her account.

She has confirmed that Ultimo HQ will remain in Scotland.

Mone had previously said she would leave Scotland if the country voted for independence in the September 2014 referendum.

The lingerie guru, who gave her backing to the Tories ahead of the general election, sold her luxury flat in Glasgow's Park Circus last month so she could buy her ex-husband out of the 'dream house' they once shared in Thorntonhall, Lanarkshire.

Her announcement has received a mixed reaction on Twitter, with some asking what prompted her decision.
