Revealing how she asked Simon the all important question, she said: ‘We’d been staying at Simon and Lauren’s house for a few days. One morning, Simon was about to get in the sea and I said: “Will you give me away?” and he replied: “Yeah!” He went off for a swim and when he came back, he said: “I’d absolutely love to. It would be an honour.”

Lucy was previously in a relationship with her former girlfriend Evangelina, however when the pair split last year she grew closer with Emilia.

The couple then moved in together in February, and Lucy asked her to marry her in March.

Lucy was previously married to her wife Georgina Gordon, however the pair split in November 2019, after six years together and fostering 12 children while they underwent fertility treatment.

Yet Lucy has no doubt this relationship will be different and has already sent out the invitations to her big day in June, with Rylan Clark receiving an invite.

The star previously spoke about her incredible friendship with the presenter who was there the night of her sexual assault.

She told of how Rylan was ‘incredible’ as she recalled how his actions helped her get a conviction.

The musician said: ‘Rylan was incredible he was the first person I told, he went and called the police.

Rylan was an absolute pivotal point of there being a conviction. He guarded the room and made sure no one went in, so they didn’t contaminate the evidence.

‘When Rylan came back, he came to check on me and pushed the door shut, and by him closing that door, the man that came into my room had to let himself back in with a traceable key card.’
