X FACTOR legend Lucie Jones' new man is a top restaurant director, The Sun can reveal. The West End star, 34, went public with her boyfriend, George Hersey, at Glastonbury this weekend. 6 6 It comes just days after we revealed she had split from her husband of eight years Ethan Boroian. A source told us: "Lucie's absolutely glowing - it's lovely to see her so happy. Her new man's not in the spotlight and that's exactly what she needs. "She's had a hard year and it's nice to see her smiling and moving forward in a positive way. "He was at Glastonbury to support her and it was clear for everyone to see, just how much they like each other." The Sun has contacted a representative for Lucie for comment. George has shared a picture of him and Lucie holding hands on at Worthy Farm, writing: "The greatest place on earth and an insanely special week." While underneath a video clip of Lucie performing in Glastonbury's Astrolabe tent, George wrote: "You are the best of the best. Incredible [love heart eyes emoji]." George oversees Michelin-starred chef Adam Handling's restaurant group which consists of five eateries including Frog in Covent Garden, London. His social media account shows a love for the great outdoors, fine food and hanging out with friends. A source previously told us how Lucie and ex Ethan's lives were "headed in different directions." But at one stage, Lucie, who previously represented the UK in Eurovision, was head over heels for him. Speaking about her ex, who works as the private client director for luxury brand Moët Hennessy, she said: "Ethan is everything I could ever have wanted in a man. I count my lucky stars I found him every single day. "As soon as I saw Ethan, looking so dashing in his blue wedding suit, I started to well up. "Then the male voice choir started to sing our song, God Only Knows, by The Beach Boys, and an overwhelming feeling of intense emotion came over me. "Suddenly, every precious memory of our time together came flooding back and I couldn't stop the tears. I felt so elated and knew that marrying him was the best thing I would ever do." Chicago-born Ethan added: "It was incredible seeing her in her wedding dress for the first time. I couldn't take my eyes off her." The pair reconnected after first meeting at boot camp during the filming of The X Factor 15 years ago, after which Lucie made it into the final 12. They stayed in touch when Ethan moved back to his native Chicago before going out on their first date five years later. 6 6 6

X Factor star 'splits from husband of eight years' after meeting on the show as she makes her Glastonbury Festival debut
X Factor stars Lucie Jones and Ethan Boroian have reportedly split after eight years together. The former couple first met during auditions on the talent show in 2009, and later got together, although reports have suggested the pair are no longer together. And now Lucie, 34, is making her Glastonbury debut this weekend following the alleged split. Sources say the couple are now going through a divorce, and Lucie no longer follows her husband on social media. It's claimed that they have 'grown apart' in their relationship, with Lucie and Ethan marrying at a young age and now realising their focus has changed. MailOnline have contacted Lucie's reps for comment. A source told The Sun: 'She has been busy focusing on pursuing her career on the West End stage and travelling the globe, they're moving on with their lives. 'Lucie's in a really good place and has already moved on and met someone else and has loved performing at Glastonbury.' They added: 'Ethan is no longer in showbusiness and their lives were headed in different directions.' The singer's first appearance at Glastonbury took place this weekend at Worthy Farm. Lucie admitted she was 'delighted to be involved' ahead of the three-day stint. The pop star previously represented the UK in Eurovision, and credited the contest for 'changing her life.' She also revealed she still keeps in touch with people on the show, including Joe McElderry, who Lucie is heading to Ibiza with. Last month, Lucie announced the exciting news on Instagram with her official Glastonbury poster. 'Worthy Farm, here I come. I'm so ridiculously excited to share that I will be performing at Glasto 2025,' she wrote. 'Joined by a band led by the unmatched @jonrangerinsta and guided as always by the best of the best @noisebyjonny. 'I'm there to make some festival history in being the first musical theatre artist ever to perform at the festival. 'Cannot wait to see the happiest people in the world - the glasto ticket holders - at Astrolabe on Thurs Fri and Sat! Let's all defy gravity in a field together babyyyyyyyyy!!' After she was voted out of the X Factor, Lucie went on to find huge success in musical theatre. The young star played Cosette in Les Miserables opposite Nick Jonas and performed the role of Meat in the 2013 Arena Tour of We Will Rock You. In 2016, she played Elle Woods in the UK Tour of Legally Blonde the Musical and was cast as Maureen Johnson in Rent.
