Things hotted up between Lucinda and Brad on Friday night as they flirted back and forth before sharing a kiss in the garden in front of everyone.

Viewers were furious to see Brad, 26, wooing the new girl after already making his way through Faye Winter, Chloe Burrows and Rachel Finni.

However, just 24 hours later Lucinda already seemed to be put off by the Northumberland hunk as she revealed he'd been "selling her a dream".

Sitting down for an honest chat with Brad's former partner Faye, she admitted she had been "greedy" in kissing him so quickly after meeting.

While agreeing that Brad is attractive, the lettings manager warned Lucinda that he could be very self-centred and bad at conversation.

"He will sometimes talk at you rather than with you," Faye began, as Lucinda nodded in agreement. "It's a conver-me-sation not a conversation."

"F***ing I've been called motor mouth but he's got a motor mouth," she added, before asking Lucinda: "Does he know anything about you?"

After sheepishly shaking her head, the bombshell replied: "Not really sure to be honest - but he's beautiful, he's stunning... but it's one of those."

"I really regret snogging him," Lucinda then confessed in a shock twist, adding that she "got greedy" after they first met each other.

Admitting she felt it was more like a "night out snog" she confessed to Faye that Brad sold her a dream about marriage, babies and her "sitting pretty" at home.

Faye listened with her mouth hanging open as Lucinda concluded, laughing awkwardly: "He's literally selling me the dream, you know what I mean?"

Fans were overjoyed by the conversation between the two girls and happy to see Lucinda recognising Brad's "lovebombing" behaviour.
