Lucy Spraggan gushed over her new wife Emilia Smith as she shared a bikini snap of her love after the pair tied the knot over the weekend.

The X Factor star, 32, revealed in February that she had fallen for her friend of 10 years Emilia and the pair announced their engagement just one month later.

Taking to Instagram on Monday, Lucy shared a picture of her new wife in a black triangle bikini top and figure-hugging beach skirt, relaxing on a luxurious boat.

Lucy showed her adoration for Emilia as she captioned the snap: ‘I’m sorry but I married this woman at the weekend [sweating faces]. Wtf.’ 

Also on Monday, besotted Emilia shared a video of Lucy on her Instagram Story, where she excitedly said: ‘Guess what? You’re my wife.’ 

Lucy married Emilia over the weekend after the friends of 10 years announced they had fallen for one another 

Ahead of her wedding, Lucy shared a loved up post with Emilia as the pair prepared to walk down the aisle on Friday. 

The couple, who have been friends for 10 years, got engaged in March, just two months after telling the world they had unexpectedly fallen for one another. 

Looking loved up in the sweet snaps, Lucy beamed with Emilia balanced on her back before they also shared a kiss. 

Excited for the big day, Lucy wrote: ‘I’m marrying the love of my life tomorrow. My best friend. My friend of a decade. 

‘I wrote a song about her, about us, and it’s coming out at midnight. I am so, so excited.’

She then teased: ‘Ps. There’s a surprise coming 10am tomorrow morning’.

And it has now been revealed that as well as the release of the new single Other Sides Of The Moon, Lucy has also announced her eighth studio album will be released on January 31 2025. 

Other Sides Of The Moon is a stunning tribute to Lucy and tells the story of how the pair, friends for over 10 years, started their relationship and of the butterflies they both felt when messaging out the blue about a dream.

Also on Monday, besotted Emilia shared a video of Lucy on her Instagram Story, where she excitedly said: ‘Guess what? You’re my wife’

Speaking of the track, Lucy added: ‘I wrote Other Sides Of The Moon because now we are together it feels like we were both always looking at the same moon, just from different sides of it. 

‘Now we are on the same side, I finally realise what healthy love is supposed to feel like. I feel so lucky every day.’

Lucy previously revealed Simon Cowell will be walking her down the aisle after the pair patched up their relationship following her time on X Factor in 2012. 

The singer revealed last year that she left the show after she was raped by a hotel porter in the room where she was staying after partying with Rylan Clark during the show’s production.

Lucy explained that Simon was the first to apologise, previously admitting his call ‘just made things so much better for me.’

The star revealed she had popped the question to Emilia back in March after their friendship blossomed into a romance despite meeting over a decade ago in 2013. 

Speaking on the My Dirty Laundry podcast last month Lucy opened up about her relationship as she explained: ‘It’s been a surprise for both of us really because we’ve been friends for 10 years and it wasn’t until last year, late last year that we both sort of turned to each other and we’re like wait…’

‘We’ve been really, really good friends. We’ve known each other for more than a decade, and we’ve been really good friends for like four or five years. 

Excited for the big day, Lucy wrote: ‘I’m marrying the love of my life tomorrow. My best friend. My friend of a decade’

And it has now been revealed that as well as the release of the new single Other Sides Of The Moon, which is a tribute to Emilia, Lucy has also announced her eighth studio album will be released on January 31 2025

Lucy has revealed that Simon Cowell is preparing a speech for her wedding as well as walking her down the aisle  (pictured together in 2022) 

 Speaking on the My Dirty Laundry podcast last month Lucy opened up about her relationship as she explained : ‘[The realisation for us happened] at exactly at the same time without saying anything to each other’

‘[The realisation for us happened] at exactly at the same time without saying anything to each other. She had a dream about me and she woke up and she’s like, ‘Oh, my God, I think I feel this way about Lucy’. 

‘And she sent me a text saying she was coming down to my show and I got butterflies and I was left thinking, ‘What was that?’ And that was like two days after her dream.

Confirming that Simon will be walking her down the aisle, Lucy said: ‘It’s actually true. We’ve just bonded so much over the last few years.

‘I actually asked him when we were in Barbados around Christmas time. We were all on the beach and like hanging out and it’s just really lovely. 

We were talking about the wedding. We weren’t even properly engaged then. And I was like, ‘Would you give me away?’ And he went for a swim in the sea.

‘And he came back and he was just said: ‘I’d be, I’d be honoured’. 

Lucy revealed that Simon’s role won’t end there. She said: ‘He is doing a speech and it’s funny because a lot of people feel like they know people who are on television. 

‘But there are different depths to different people. People give away different vulnerabilities for different things. And I feel really privileged to know Simon the way that I do.’ 

She joked: ‘His speech will probably go something like [mimics Simon on X Factor,] ‘I don’t like this wedding. I LOVE this wedding.’ 

The star revealed she had popped the question to Emilia back in March after their friendship blossomed into a romance despite meeting over a decade ago in 2013 

Lucy didn’t give too much away when it came to the theme of her wedding. just saying it will be ‘quirky’ and ‘last minute,’ although she did admit to having a 12-tab spreadsheet. 

And despite having fostered 12 children when she was married to first wife, Georgina Gordon (they were together for six years but split in 2019), Lucy said she and Emilia don’t want children of their own. 

She said: ‘I definitely have a nurturing side about me but I know I don’t have a maternal side to me. I don’t wanna have kids and neither does Emilia. 

‘And that’s something that we’re both really happy with. And we’re quite looking forward to like this life where we get to do what we like, but we both have a niece and a nephew who we would take a bullet for.’
