Lucy has previously spoken about some of the social media comments she receives about her appearance.

She told the Daily Express: “People see presenters in their living rooms day in, day out and they think that they know us. The public can be very vocal.

"The comments on Twitter are always really active. I read everything.

“I get comments saying my arms are lovely and toned and others saying I look too thin, you can’t do right for doing wrong.”

Yet she tries not to take any criticism to heart.

She added: “Friends are always baffled about what people write. Sometimes I do comment back on Instagram when odd things are said.

“But if the comments are offensive in any way I’ll delete them, I have no tolerance for that. They just want a reaction out of you. I have developed quite a thick skin, which is something you have to have.

“I think it helps that I grew up with three brothers – you can’t take anything too seriously.”
