'TOWIE's Lucy Mecklenburgh mingles with the A list in the French Riviera


May 17, 2013

The Cannes Film Festival is in full swing, and The Only Way Is Essex star Lucy Mecklenburgh is soaking up the atmosphere in the French Riviera. Lucy, 21, looked chic as she strolled through the streets in a pencil skirt, white top, oversized hat and obligatory shades.

The reality TV star was also spotted relaxing on a terrace as she got to grips with Cannes' cafe culture. Lucy, who recently split with her former on-screen boyfriend Mario Falcone, is clearly having a great time in France and has been keeping her Twitter followers up-to-date on her itinerary. "Having a great week.. Beautiful shooting in Monaco, Menton & Nice .. I don't want to come home x," she tweeted.

Lucy also shared a picture of her and a friend dining in a waterfront restaurant. The snap was followed by a separate Tweet which read, "Wow sometimes dreams do come true #HappyGirl". The brunette is enjoying an escape after a very public break up with fellow TOWIE star Mario Falcone. She called time on their relationship after discovering Mario had indulged in a series of flirty exchanges with another girl.

Lucy, who owns her own boutique in Essex, broke the news to her followers on Twitter. "I finished with Mario 7days ago," she wrote. "It took him a while to move on. This has reassured me I made the right decision."
