Does it count as cheating if it's with a celebrity?

My friend (female) kissed one of her childhood hearthrobs at the weekend. We were down in London and ended up in a club he was in. Anyway she got the nerve to talk to him and we ended up sitting with his group and she ended up all over him in the booth. No sex, but a lot of kissing and wandering hands.

She told her husband when we got home!! He doesn't mind (or so he says). The guy was on her list of people she's allowed to sleep with, she had posters of him on her bedroom walls and he's in his late 40's/early 50's now? Anyway her and her husband both agree it doesn't count as cheating if it's someone on the list or someone famous. WTF? I don't know if she'd slept with him if he'd be bothered even? They've been together 20 years, married 15 and neither of them have ever cheated before. Both just carrying on, I'm in shock she told him so freely and he doesn't mind!!

It's so weird. DH asked me how to spell Slattery this evening and I was thinking I wonder what happened to Tony Slattery and then I see this thread. Woo

Has the celeb ever been on Loose Women OP?

halfwitpicker · 19/06/2018 01:03

Talking heads? Alan Bennett maybe?

Remember lemon wedge from sixth form

Tartyflette · 19/06/2018 01:04

Just wasted spent 15 minutes scrolling through the bumface site
Grin. But no Timothy Dalton, bumface par excellence - after WC!

At least give us a clue if he’s and actor or a singer etc?

Maybe you could describe him in code...

TuTru · 19/06/2018 01:10

For me it is cheating.
But if her & her husband have (pre) agreed it’s ok then it isn’t cheating. Surely cheating means lying to your spouse and doing things you know you shouldn’t.
My DP don’t have a list of ppl it’s allowed with... he’s not allowed no matter who they are!

TuTru · 19/06/2018 01:13

Was it JK?

Choccywoccyhooha · 19/06/2018 01:18

I can't imagine that half of these guesses ever adorned many teenage walls in the 80s/90s.
If they are on panel shows I'm guessing that they are British or at least have lived here door a long time, and if they were on posters probably in a band or on TV.
My guesses are...
Tim Vincent, Andrew Ridgeley, one of Bros, Kavana, Rick Astley...

Hhhmm.

Anyway, to answer your question I wouldn't get upset if DH did this, but I would wonder how he managed it! The last celeb he snogged was Edith Bowman before we were together, I believe they were both quite drunk.

I had a crush on Tony Slattery. Is he gay?! I think he has a bipolar diagnosis. He was in the secret life of the manic depressive documentary that Stephen Fry made.

This thread has really made me laugh.

Tartyflette · 19/06/2018 01:25

Peter André? Grin
(and yes, Tony Slattery is gay)

BananaToffo · 19/06/2018 01:37

H from Steps?

halfwitpicker · 19/06/2018 01:38

Perhaps it was Stephen Fry....

SleepingStandingUp · 19/06/2018 01:42

So this guy is likely a serial cheat.

Your friend might be out of this world stunning, but in all likelihood she's ordinary, like the rest of us and he could have resisted if he wanted to. The face he didn't suggest he does this regularly. Uugghh. Creep.

I wouldn't mind a snog with Paul Nicholls or Will Mellor but only if they were single!

SleepingStandingUp · 19/06/2018 01:43

Perhaps it was Stephen Fry
Ops female friend is the wrong sex

Spandau and Duran were early to late eighties - they're too old!
What about Marti Pellow? He's on tour, south coast at the mo. Not sure he ever got married though....

Shadow666 · 19/06/2018 01:53

Wait, Tony Slattery is gay? I actually did have a huge crush on him back in the day. Those curtains! I think he looks really good now.

I actually laughed out loud at Shaun Ryder being Barry from Eastenders.

daftyburd · 19/06/2018 03:32

Chesney Hawkes? Matt Goss? John Alford from Grange Hill and London’s Burning? Lofty from Eastenders?

ShackUp · 19/06/2018 03:48

tartyflette I saw David Byrne on Thursday night and can confirm he's looking very good for his age Grin but he doesn't do panel shows

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 19/06/2018 06:05

Frank Skinner? Andy Crane? Pat Sharpe? Jack Dee?

TheresSomebodyAtTheDoor · 19/06/2018 07:11

Oooh was it a footballer?

I snogged a Dutch one during the Euro 1990something cup that was here.

John Barnes?

MyBeloved · 19/06/2018 07:15

My money's on Peter Andre
