COVER STORY
LUCY SPRAGGAN
When the first issue of DIVA hit the shelves in April 1994, Lucy Spraggan was barely a toddler, but her “super liberal” mum was already taking her to Pride parades. As a teenager she snuck into WH Smiths to buy a copy on the down-low, “red in the face, trying to hide it under an arm like a dodgy mag”. She could never have predicted that in her 25th year, and the magazine’s 23rd, she would be on the cover of our landmark 250th issue.
