The former TOWIE star was missing the couple’s dog, Bentley, so contacted Mario about the possibility of visiting the puppy.
Lucy wrote in her weekly magazine column: ‘I emailed Mario to see if I could have him for a few days When I arrived Mario was washing Bentley which was good because he was really dirty and I was wearing white jeans!’
Lucy revealed that she stayed to catch up with her TOWIE ex.
‘I stayed for a cup of tea and Mario and I spoke about TOWIE,’ she wrote. ‘It was nice to see him- he looks really well and has a good tan going on at the moment.’
‘Bentley stayed at mine for a few days. Mario texted me and said I could have him for as long as I want, but he needed him for filming.’
Lucy also revealed that she missed the show, especially when she dropped the couple’s dog off at Mario’s and caught up with the TOWIE crew.
The fitness guru also made it clear that there is no love lost between her and former love rival Grace Andrews.
Lucy revealed that Grace was emailing a mutual friend of hers in an attempt to tell her side of the story over her romance with Mario.
Lucy said, rather coldly: ‘I told her to email back and say: ‘Lucy wishes you all the best of luck for this series of TOWIE.’
‘I don’t have anything against her. It seems a bit silly to me,’ the star added.
