Moving away from her movie career, Lily pursued her fascination with cabaret and all things burlesque. Her first big performance was at The Pheasantry, a well-known supper club in London, she took the stage again in a West End cabaret show in 2016, under the stage name Lily. She coupled this with her love for writing poetry, and often performed her own songs on stage.

Conclusion

Lily has never talked about why she changed her surname to her mother’s maiden name, but she has spoken about the hurt and betrayal she felt over her parent’s divorce and her dad’s new relationship with a woman 30 years his junior. The couple having a child must have just rubbed salt in her open wounds. It was due to this upset that she also deleted around two years’ worth of Instagram posts.
