In a lengthy Instagram post, Lucy explained that she was bombarded with negativity last year, with many of her followers criticising her collection of tattoos.

Grinning from ear to ear, the TV star’s bright pink locks were swept back into a ponytail as she flexed for the camera, proudly showing off her ink.

Alongside the image, she wrote: ‘Tattooed women suck. You know all last year when I kept getting comments like ‘you look like a man’ and ‘your tattoos make you look so much less feminine’ blah blah blah. 

‘And I was like ‘whaaaaaaaat’ as I’d never had that kind of comment before?’

Lucy explained that she couldn’t wait to be intimate with her girlfriend, because her new 34D boobs have made her feel so confident. 

She elaborated: ‘I am looking forward to getting back into the bedroom, I can’t wait til the pain has gone but I can’t believe how well I feel already

‘My girlfriend [whose name she hasn’t revealed], didn’t realise how badly I felt about my pre-surgery boobs. I always wanted to keep a bra on in the bedroom.

‘If I wasn’t laying down, my boobs were like udders. She has fake boobs, so she reassured me about having surgery and now I’ve got bigger t**s than her.’
