Lucy Spraggan reveals she was raped by hotel employee during time on X Factor
Former X Factor contestant Lucy Spraggan has revealed she was raped by a hotel porter while filming for the show.
After a hotel porter offered to help escort her back to her room, he then flipped the security latch on her door so that it would remain unlocked. She said: "I don't think I've ever felt that level of confusion since. I knew that I'd been raped, but I could not process that. So I put my clothes on and went into autopilot."Lucy's rapist was soon arrested after the production team called the police.
She slammed ITV for not reaching out to her after the hotel porter was convicted and not "offering her any ongoing mental health treatment." A spokesperson for ITV told the Mirror: "We have the deepest compassion for Lucy and everything she has endured as a result of this horrific ordeal. We commend her resilience and bravery. The X Factor was produced by Thames and Syco, who were primarily responsible for duty of care towards all of its programme contributors.
