If it's a beach that's full of really fit girls and buff blokes, then you'd definitely find me with my kit off there.

My bikinis always feel like they're about the snap open!

It's something about feeling the sun on your body that's been hidden away for the winter - it feels kind of sexy. And I think everyone looks a bit healthier - glossier, almost. Evolution-wise, it probably explains why we feel a bit saucier. I think I'm equally frisky whatever the season though.

A man who is comfortable and sure about who he is is far more attractive than someone trying to be flash or be something that they're not. Rugged good looks help too, lol!

I don't get chatted up really, but I think that might have something to do with the fact I'm not really one for attracting attention. More a quiet night-in sort of girl.

My decision to do topless was purely financial, if I'm being honest, and by then I'd been in the industry for three years and thought it felt right to become a fully fledged Page Three girl, nipples and all!

A fight between Michelle Marsh and me would be over pretty quickly. I think we'd end up suffocating each other with our breasts.

When I started off, I still thought I'd be going off to uni. I didn't like the idea of other under-graduates being familiar with my nipples, so I didn't show them. Then, it became a sort of trademark - Lucy doesn't do nipples. Then it turned into a total pain to keep them covered up at shoots. I got paranoid in case one popped out. Finally, I decided to yank them out. I'm glad to say the response was quite favourable.

[on her breasts] They always generated a reaction. When I was at school, just 13, I'd cram them into these white school shirts. Pupils and teachers just didn't know where to look. Luckily I was calm about myself. I always felt quite comfortable being busty.

[asked what she likes to do when not modeling] I'm currently obsessed with baking. My cakes are very good! My family put baking bans on me because I take them homemade cakes so much they're fearing for their waistlines! I love yoga too.

I've never experienced bad bullying. I think pretty much everyone growing up had people who upset them or teased them. Children can be very cruel to each other, but I never had anything too severe. Modeling as a career we do get a lot of abuse on social media but it doesn't get to me, it's best to ignore it. I always think it says more about the sort of people doing it anyway. I don't think anyone should let the opinions of anyone you don't respect upset you.
