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!!

Tony Slattery had a massive cocaine-induced breakdown iirc and has suffered with his mental health ever since. He was dropped by pretty much everything and everyone apart from Stephen Fry.

Allegedly.

My guess is now Shane Ritchie.

BadTasteFlump · 18/06/2018 22:54

Or Timmy Mallet! Grin

Ooh panel shows - Mark Lamarr?

Butterymuffin · 18/06/2018 22:54

His wife could be on here. That would be pretty awful for her.

ObiJuanKenobi · 18/06/2018 22:54

OP can you confirm or deny whether he has been mentioned at all on the thread?

BadTasteFlump · 18/06/2018 22:55

'Can you confirm or deny'

I'm gonna say Rick Astley 🙂

NotTakenUsername · 18/06/2018 22:56

Well the sleb was likely cheating, but your friend was not. To be a cheater you have to break the rules, and she didn’t break the rules of her relationship. 🤷‍♀️

BadTasteFlump · 18/06/2018 22:57

Nooo not Rick.

TheresSomebodyAtTheDoor · 18/06/2018 22:58

Roland Rat??

eightfacesofthemoon · 18/06/2018 22:58

mark lamarr!
I once saw him in my local sainsburys buying industrial amounts of lucozade and a couple of ready meals. it was a bit sad.
So I don't think it's him.

SmokyRobinson · 18/06/2018 23:01

Must be Shaun Ryder , he always pops up on gameshows when out of money...Only mystery is what he did in London, unless op changed location for anonimity....

ReggaetonLente · 18/06/2018 23:02

Isn’t Shaun Ryder Barry from Eastenders?

ReggaetonLente · 18/06/2018 23:03

A quick google has told me Barry was in fact Shaun Williamson Blush

MicheleWeinberger · 18/06/2018 23:05

Maybe the guy from brother beyond or one of Bross. Although not seen them on any game shows. 🤔

eightfacesofthemoon · 18/06/2018 23:06

UM who would want to fuck shaun ryder or barry from eastenders.
If her husband gave her a free pass on those two then he's mental

is it the nice chap from blur who always pops up on the occasinal panel show

DickTERFin · 18/06/2018 23:06

I knew someone who worked at the Dominion theatre when Shane Ritchie was in Grease there and he was renowned for sticking it in anything with a vagina and a pulse
apparently.

If it’s out in the open and the husband and wife both don’t care then it is not cheating. But knowingly copping off with a married man is grim, have an open marriage all you like but don’t engage in the distruction of someone else’s -yuck.

Zoflorabore · 18/06/2018 23:06

Easy enough to find out if you really want to... Wink

eightfacesofthemoon · 18/06/2018 23:08

@Zoflorabore

HOW??

ScreenQueen · 18/06/2018 23:09

Angus Deayton?

bluetrampolines · 18/06/2018 23:09

Yes. HOW???? Please.

BrendasUmbrella · 18/06/2018 23:09

If it was David Boreanaz I suppose it wouldn't be a surprise. He's the charmer who was on the phone with one of his OW while his wife was giving birth. And there are loads of stories online about him messing around.

Echobelly · 18/06/2018 23:09

I can see why husband might be OK with it - it's not like it has a likelihood of going anywhere with this celeb, so why not let her have her fun, especially as she hasn't kept anything from him? So there's no element of feeling fooled or lied to.

It might not work for you, doesn't mean it's not fine for other people.

TheresSomebodyAtTheDoor · 18/06/2018 23:10

Can't be any of Blur they were def not late 80's.
