The 'Smile' singer, who is about to move into a North West London property, has been dreaming about buying and furnishing her first home since she was 15.

Lily, 22, said: "I have just exchanged and I can't wait to move. It is beautiful. It is something I always wanted. For years I've had a lock-up storage facility, so I have been collecting for my home. I have got French farmhouse tables, 70s plastic chairs, grandfather clocks.

"I have been collecting since I was 15. My therapist has a few things to say about that!"

Lily, whose father is British comic Keith Allen, also revealed she had a less than perfect time growing up.

She explained: "My childhood was really tough, although I didn't think of it in that way at the time. I used to feel sorry for myself and I could never work out why."
