Personal life

Lucy is single and lives in East Dulwich. As well as her shows on Heart & a daily show on Spanish station Mercury FM, she also writes an autobiographical blog about the life of a London-based, career minded single girl in her 30's. Inspired by a break up with a previous boyfriend, the blog started life as the Break Up Rebrand, and is an ongoing project. According to Lucy "It feels like we’re expected to be crying into a pillow, stinking of Chardonnay, cat pee and desperation. (for the record I prefer Gin & smell expensive, darling). The biggest thing I've learned, is that being single aged 36 is actually rather exciting, unpredictable and utterly refreshing! The sense of freedom is incredible."
