Lucy, 34, who's best pals with Simon Cowell after she appeared on his talent show in 2012, suffered several injuries during her time on SAS: WDW which continues on Sunday.
She said: "I ripped my labia - it was bad. That's not a common injury. Actually, genuinely, that's never been the same, so much so I'm having some surgery soon to correct it.
"I don't really know even what happened, I guess the harness was tight.
"I was like: "This feels really bad. Surely there can't be anything." And I looked and there was a tear, there was lots of blood and the doctor came over and I turned around because at that point you literally don't care about anything. Dignity has gone. It was like: 'Oh my God, I thought it was your leg.' And I was like: 'No, no, it's not!'"
Other stars who've come a cropper on SAS: Who Dares Wins include Pete Wicks who was knocked unconscious and broke his ribs, fellow X-Factor singer Jake Quickenden who ruptured his arm and chest muscles while former Health secretary Matt Hancock got trenchfoot and nearly choked to death.
Lucy's woes didn't end with the harness, however. During filming of this series she also nearly knocked one of her teeth out, fainted, and suffered more horror injuries when she face-planted the sea after trying to jump from a helicopter onto a boat.
That left her with a black eye, which was still present on her wedding day, and permanently displaced filler in her cheeks.
Lucy said: "I had the filler under my eyes and when my face hit the sea so hard my filler migrated to the side of my face.
"By that point I was just in pain everywhere...and the filler didn't migrate back, when I got home I had to have it dissolved."

Love Island's Harry Cooksley admits dating friend of Montana Brown just days before entering villa
Love Island runner-up Harry Cooksley has admitted he was dating a friend of Montana Brown just days before stepping foot in the villa. The reality star, 30, faced the awkward confession after Montana claimed he had been romancing her close friend right up until filming began. The ex-contestant, who appeared in series three of the dating show, dropped the bombshell on TikTok hours before last week's final, telling her followers not to back Harry for the win. The rumour mill went into overdrive, and just days later Harry was grilled about the claims during an appearance on This Morning alongside his partner Shakira. Host Emma Willis asked if he could respond to the allegations that had been thrown at him - something Harry didn't deny. Dressed in a stripy knitted white vest and brown trousers he admitted: 'Yeah, I was dating before I came in – I think we all were. 'I went on a few dates with her friend. You're not in the villa until you're actually in the villa. I only told my family and two of my closest mates I was going on Love Island.' He insisted it wasn't a serious relationship, adding: 'It's true, I was dating people obviously. But my actual ex girlfriend came into the villa, so it wasn't like it was an actual ex. Things have changed a lot in the last eight weeks'. Shakira and Harry have had a rollercoaster journey in the villa with Harry's roaming eye causing plenty of upset. While the pair were originally coupled up, it wasn't long before his head was turned and he snuck off to the Hideaway with Helena. After changing his mind once again, he returned to Helena after the pair claimed to have a 'undeniable connection'. Fans will then remember the dramatic moment his ex Emma walked into Casa Amor, blindsiding Harry while he was coupled up with Helena. Despite their history, Harry and Emma didn't rekindle their romance, but his time in Casa Amor wasn't exactly scandal-free, with the footballer striking up a flirtation with bombshell Rheo, even sharing kisses under the covers. Ultimately, he returned to the main villa single and carried on with Helena – only to later admit he still had feelings for Shakira, claiming his relationship with Helena was more like friendship. It comes after Montana Brown urged fans of the dating show not to vote for Harry as she branded him a 'walking red flag' for the way he apparently treated her friend before flying off to Mallorca to 'find love' in the villa. Airing her thoughts in a TikTok video, Montana said: 'Guys I've not been involved in the whole Love Island chat so this is the tea. 'Harry was seeing someone that I know, one of my good friends, right before he went on the show and wrote her a letter and said, oh my gosh I know you're doing to be really surprised at this but I still love you and we're going to be together and I just need to sort my head out and all of this c**p. Discouraging her followers from voting for Harry and Shakira, she said: 'And now I'm like this guy cannot win. Although I love Shakira from what I've seen of her, she's incredible.

Frank Skinner claims there are 'lots of creepy men' working in TV 'making women's lives a misery' as he recalls getting vile cameraman sacked for filming up a female colleague's skirt
has claimed there are 'lots of creepy men' working in the TV industry who often make 'women's lives a misery'. The comedian, 68, recalled one particular incident in which he used his position on his chat show, which aired on both BBC and ITV from 1995 to 2005, to get a vile cameraman sacked after he filmed up a female colleague's skirt. He told The Sun: 'I think if you've got the power to do something about that, you need to use it', as he branded the incident 'horrible' and a form of 'bullying'. '[The cameraman] He thought it was funny to put the camera up a make-up woman's skirt and it got big laughs in the studio. I wasn't in the studio, but I found her crying in a room and she told me about it. 'I asked around. And because I was a big-time comedian, I was able to say: "Well, look, either he goes or I go". I don't want to get anyone sacked, but I did get him sacked. I tell that story not to make myself sound like some big hero and good guy, but just that I had the power and I did something'. Frank said that he believed that is how incident os misconduct should be bullied and found it 'baffling' how they often appear to go ignored. Meanwhile Christopher Biggins has shockingly admitted he would still like to be able to 'grab women by the t***ies' in a bizarre defence of Gregg Wallace. The iconic actor, 76, who is openly gay, said his own past behaviour would 'land him in prison' today and claimed 25 years ago 'everyone' was acting inappropriately. Gregg, 60, stepped down from his duties as Masterchef host after more than 40 complaints about his behaviour were upheld following a BBC investigation. Christopher, who appeared on the show's celebrity version in 2014, said he'd reached out to the scandal-plagued broadcaster following the axe, as well as sharing insight into his own less than savoury antics. He told The Sun: 'Years ago I would approach a woman from behind and grab her t***ies from the front. Well, I'm gay so it didn't matter. And I'd like to still be doing it, but I don't think I can any more. 'If I were to do that now I'd be put into prison. Twenty-five years ago we were all doing it. It was a thing of affection.' He went on: 'I love Gregg and I love his wife. I've tried to get hold of her because they must be going through a terrible time because suddenly careers are vanishing, it's so wrong.' Daily Mail have contacted Christopher Biggins' reps for further comment. No stranger to his own controversy, Christopher was famously axed from the Celebrity Big Brother back in 2016 after making a shocking comment to X Factor star Katie Waissel, which was never broadcast. Christopher told Katie, who is Jewish: 'You better be careful or they'll be putting you in a shower and taking you to a room.' Bosses immediately removed him from the house, and his £100,000 fee was reportedly slashed. Christopher has since apologised for his comments, noting that some of his close friends, such as Birds of a Feather's Lesley Joseph, were Jewish. The BBC review into Gregg's behaviour concluded that the 'majority of the substantiated allegations against him related to inappropriate sexual language and humour'. It added that 'a smaller number of allegations of other inappropriate language and being in a state of undress were also substantiated', with 'one incident of unwelcome physical contact' also substantiated. Australian-born chef co-host John Torode, 59, also lost his job after two decades over allegations that he used the N-word, which he claims to have 'absolutely no recollection' of. Gregg and John have returned to screens for one final time together as the BBC made the decision to air the controversial 21st series of MasterChef. It was filmed last year and remained shelved by the broadcaster until the findings of the independent investigation were gathered. The iconic actor, who is openly gay, said his own past behaviour would 'land him in prison' today and claimed 25 years ago 'everyone' was acting inappropriately (pictured on Celebrity Masterchef in 2014) Fans have been left divided over the move to air the programme, with some branding the decision as 'bizarre' and accused the BBC of being 'tone deaf'. There was a last-minute scramble behind-the-scenes to re-edit it and limit the appearances of John and Gregg. One contestant, Sarah Shafi, will not appear on the programme after she complained about the behaviour of Gregg. She claimed she was 'eyed up and ogled' by Gregg on the show, while accusing the TV host of making an 'off' comment about his reputation with women.
