Speaking on the White Fox After Hours podcast, Lucinda confirmed she and Nathan are no longer an item.

She said: "So I am recently single.

"You've actually just got to laugh or you will literally cry.

"But to be honest, my ex boyfriend is like one of the best people ever, he is so lovely and so kind. A real gent.

"I feel like we will always be friends.

"He's a bit older as well. I feel like it's just way more mature which I love."

She added: "Neither of us have done anything, it's just more the fact that both of us are so busy.

"It's right person, wrong time."

The break-up comes just weeks after Lucinda confirmed she and Nathan, who is known for songs such as 21 Reasons, We Ain't Here For Long and Lighter, were "really good".

Speaking to The Sun at the Tric Awards last month, Lucinda said:  “We're both really good!

“I travel with him sometimes not all the time as we both have really busy schedules. It is really nice [being in that industry now].”

The Sun exclusively revealed the pair were dating back in April.

Lucinda 'confirmed' it all in May when she shared a snap of a beautiful room at Cave Hotel in Kent with a gold number 30 balloon on the weekend of Nathan's 30th birthday.

A month later, Nathan confirmed their romance too as they walked the red carpet at the Jingle Bell Ball together ending weeks of speculation from fans.

Lucinda's romance with Nathan came just two months after her messy break-up with Zac Nunns.

She and Newlander Zac had met on Love Island Australia late last year but went their separate ways in February.

The reality hunk branded her a "liar" and even leaked messages in April after their split.

Lucinda reportedly 'faked' a split with Zac to try and get on Love Island All Stars.

The pair dated for four months before their split, and he even came over to the UK before Christmas.
