Lucy Spraggan, a former contestant on the popular talent show X Factor, has bravely come forward to disclose that she was raped by a hotel porter while participating in the ITV program in 2012. The 31-year-old singer shared her traumatic experience in an interview with The Guardian and detailed the assault in her newly released memoir titled “Process: Finding My Way Through.”
Spraggan recounted that the incident occurred after a night of celebration at a Mayfair nightclub, where X Factor contestants, including herself, were in attendance alongside members of the show’s production team. The attack took place when she fell unconscious and was escorted back to her hotel by a production team member. Once at the hotel, a porter offered to assist her in reaching her room. However, he later used a “traceable keycard” to gain access to her room and assault her.
