The restaurant responded to say the text message was sent in error.
"We can't apologise enough to Megan," a spokesperson for Miller and Carter told The Sun.
"It was never our intention to be disrespectful or upset her in any way. The texts were sent in error and were intended for our manager, not the candidate."
