A heroic teenager was left speechless after Lewis Capaldi dedicated a powerful performance to her at the Pride of Britain Awards 2022.

Lucy Montgomery, 15, saved the lives of her family friend Mathieu, 8, and her father when they drifted into dangerous water on holiday in France.

The then 14-year-old, from Northern Ireland, swam and got Mathieu to safety before returning back to the same deep spot to help Graham, 50, who can not swim.

In recognition of her bravery, she was awarded the Teenage of Courage honour at the ceremony, hosted by Carol Vorderman and Ashley Banjo, and was also treated to a surprise from the Someone You Loved singer.

Before accepting the gong, a pre-recorded clip play of Lucy, who thought she had won a tour of the ITV studios, visiting the Jonathan Ross Show set.

But instead, Lewis, 26, was there waiting for her, handing her a gold envelope to tell her she had won the prestigious award.

The Before You Go performer said: ‘We’ve all heard about how incredible you are, so you’ve been given this.’

Lewis then dedicated and performed his new emotional single for her in the studio, while she looked stunned.

Beaming, Lucy said: ‘I was shocked, it all happened so fast. I never expected to be nominated for any kind of award for doing what I did.

‘I wasn’t expecting Lewis to come out and sing to me, I just couldn’t believe it. It was overwhelming.’

The Pride of Britain Awards, which was held earlier this week but aired on ITV on Thursday, were attended by a number of stars including Hollywood actors Idris Elba and Michael Sheen.
