Lulu has recalled having a brief relationship with the late David Bowie, comparing his thighs to those of Naomi Campbell.

This comes after the music icon revealed that she had a brief relationship with Bowie some years ago last year.

Speaking about their relationship for the first time publicly last year on ITV's This Morning, Lulu revealed the pair did have a physical connection.

“You know what? I have never said, ‘Yes, I had sex with David Bowie,’ until now. This is the first time I’ve said it because I’ve always chosen not to speak about it", Lulu said. “It was private… I wouldn’t share the details anyway,” she added. “I do have boundaries. I’m learning to have boundaries". 

Now, Lulu has spoken to Louis Theroux on his podcast, where she went on speak further about the pair's relationship status.

“I had a brief relationship [with him]… a fling", she said.

Theroux then recalled seeing an interview she had done with The Mail in 2015, where she complimented Bowie's thighs in particular.

“I think you don’t have to have had an intimate relationship with David Bowie to know he had the best thighs,” she told Theroux. “He and Naomi Campbell". 

“He never wore tights. Well, he did occasionally, but he would often come on with a swimsuit on, and you’d go, ‘Jesus!’” she added, before the host asked her what “was so special about them”.

“They were very strong thighs!”, she added.

As well as their personal relationship, Lulu and David Bowie also collaborated on a version of 'The Man Who Sold The World', which also featured on Bowie's 1970 album of the same name.

Last September, Lulu spoked about her recent battle with alcoholism, having become increasingly dependant on drinking wine following some huge life changing moments, including hitting the menopause, as well as losing her parents and her children leaving home.

She spoke about alcohol being a “family illness” and said “the gene is there”, with her father being an alcoholic.

She said: “I’ve never spoken about the alcohol before. ‘Lulu’ is sort of squeaky clean. It’s not that I’m a bad girl. I’m not. But I’m tough on myself. I think I always wanted to be Miss Perfect, the ‘best Lulu’, and I was terrified of being like my father".
