Bay stated that Smith encouraged him to pursue a career in music and is the coolest person in the world. They were close friends before being romantically linked. Bay also said:

“Back in the day, we would be sitting in on a Wednesday night watching TV, and she would say, ‘Hang on, if you want to be a big artist one day, surely you should be out in some pub or club playing some songs right now. She instilled that in me, and I got out and did it. I wouldn’t be here without her.”

Back in May 2022, Bay released his song, One Life, which explained the journey of him and Smith falling in love and raising their child together. James said that he and Lucy grew up in the same hometown and keeping their relationship private has been very important for them.

He mentioned that One Life is a celebration of their journey so far.
