A quarter of 'single' Brits go between the sheets with married people

A new survey has revealed that a quarter of sex-mad single Brits have confessed that they have had sex with someone who is married.

The survey conducted by UKMedix.com showed that 54 per cent said it was just the once, while 27 per cent stated it had become an extended sexual affair, the Daily Star reported.

The survey was questioned 2391 men and women, who were all 18 or older, single and sexually active.

Out of the remaining 74 per cent, who had not had sexual relations with a married person, 34 per cent said they would consider it and would not be put off someone's marital status.

The cheaters were then asked if they felt guilty or worried about the married person's wife or husband, to which a 63 per cent said "no".

Sarah Bailey from UKMedix.com said that these results were certainly scandalous and not at all what they expected to find and the worst thing was that so many people who were up to no good just did not seem to care about the damage they were doing.
