And now the beauty has revealed she is ready to move on, with a spokesperson saying: "After four amazing years on Made in Chelsea, Lucy feels that now is the right time to explore some other exciting opportunities and projects that she is passionate about.

"Being part of such a successful show has been an incredible experience for her, and she wishes everyone involved all the very best for the future."

The news comes after her friend Frankie Gaff said she wouldn’t be taking part in the recent spin-off because she was ‘loved-up’.

Frankie told BANG Showbiz: "Lucy's not going to be in the next series. At the moment she's decided not to because she's loved up."

However Lucy has since denied that was the reason behind her quitting – she told her fans: “My reasons for leaving were nothing to do with my relationship and those were someone else's words. Sometimes it's just time to move on.”

She also thanked her fans for their support, writing: “Thanks for all the kind messages people.”

Lucy had a very memorable time during her four years on Made In Chelsea - which saw her have romances with Spencer Matthews and Jamie Laing.

The star was last seen on the show when she fell out with her best friend Stephanie Pratt - after she ditched her for her then boyfriend Josh Shepherd.

Speaking about the incident in the past, Lucy said: "We don't talk anymore. Last year was a very difficult year for me because she essentially dumped me for her boyfriend at the time [Josh Shepherd] as he didn't like me. When something like that happens you don't forget."

While Steph said they could never been friends again - she told Star Magazine:  "I'm the kind of person who never wants drama. I always say, 'Sorry, let's get past this'. But this time I haven't done anything and she's stabbed me in the back. This is my first experience of ever being bullied - and it's not any easier being an adult.

"If I saw Lucy right now, I wouldn't give her a dirty look, I'd give her a dumb smile - but we'll never be friends again."
