Lucy later clarified her comments on the attack on Twitter, telling concerned fans: “Me, my wife and my guitarist are all ok.

“Two people were arrested and bailed while the police gather evidence. It was all very sh*t and not a great way to finish the UK leg of the tour, but hey ho.

“Thank you all for the kind words, that’s all we have to say for now! Finishing the rest of the tour in Europe as planned.”

Lucy shot to fame in the 2012 series of The X Factor.

Lucy took part in the 2012 series of The X Factor and got through to week three of the live shows before she decided to pull out due to personal issues.

We’re glad to hear that Lucy is okay following the attack and hope that she is able to get justice.
