“Gutted, and I’d thought I’d finally scored a date,” one user stated, as another quipped: “So you didn’t ask me out then.”

A third went on: “I was a bit surprised by your DM earlier… oh well at least I know now.”

While one fan simply told her: “There’s only 1 Lucy V.”(sic)

But some did share her concerns, and said they would help her by reporting the issue.

Two messages read: “Went to report & block but it’s already suspended,” and: “What is wrong with some people? Lunatic.”

“I have already done it Lucy. How are you doing? I hope you are ok. Please stay safe,” one urged.

Another user said: “Well obviously! As if you’d only have 23 followers, that’s a give away in itself.”

Lucy also took the opportunity to respond to colleague and weatherman, Chris Page, who spoke of how he was filling his time in lockdown.
