X Factor star Diana Vickers has revealed the horrific moment she was spat on in the street as she shared a clip to Instagram on Tuesday.
The singer, 34, was explaining a sweet moment she had with a stranger, but before she could finish her story, she was interrupted by someone spitting at her.
As a passerby was heard swearing at the star, Diana looked visibly taken back by the commotion.
Diana started her story by revealing that earlier in the day, she had a friendly encounter with a stranger who helped her cross the road.
She said: 'So we're on the street corner chatting, and she was like "What's going on with you and your life? I really feel like I was supposed to meet you" and I was like "Oh I'm suffering really bad with anxiety" and we really connected so we're going to meet up later.
'So that's that. Then I went to get a bagel in this place,' but her story was abruptly interrupted by the sound of someone spitting.

A female voice off-camera was heard hurling abuse at Diana, stating: 'It ain't that much f*****g social media,' which left her in shock.
She exclaimed: 'She's just spat on me... So that was great. What the hell is happening?'.
Despite the incident, she resumed her tale about the rest of her morning.
Diana continued: 'I went in to get a bagel, but they got my order wrong. So I asked if they could redo it, and they were like no we're not redoing that.
'Then I sat down and some revolting bloke sent me a picture of his disgusting penis and then that woman just spat on me!'
Diana then later went on to explain her shock as she she needed a doughnut after the ordeal.
For the first time in 12 years, the former X Factor star, who last released music in 2013, returned to the spotlight with a hopeful hit in 2025.
Diana previously described the single as 'a musical love letter to the gays and the girlies', after years of focusing on acting, comedy and podcasting.
