Chelsea Named as Britain’s No 1 Mistress Hotspot

If you are a newly wed then don’t move to Chelsea, it is where single women prowl for married men to have affairs with.

And ‘staid’ Tunbridge Wells comes second

Chelsea is the no 1 hotspot for single women seeking affairs with married men, according to new research from AshleyMadison.com.  The world’s leading dating site for extra-marital affairs has found that 43.96% of its women members who are seeking affairs with married men in Chelsea are actually single.

Noel Biderman, AshleyMadison.com founder and CEO says: “Chelsea is part of London’s richest borough and home to some of the capital’s wealthiest men. Single women are drawn to status, to men who have made something of themselves, even if that includes having a wife and family. As Oscar Wilde said and James Goldsmith famously paraphrased, “When a man marries his mistress he creates a vacancy.” It’s no accident that so many mistresses live in Chelsea and our female members such as Lady Catherine and Rosetti Lover are looking for their own Jimmy Goldsmith.’

At Mistress Hotspot no 2, Tunbridge Wells has a more conservative image with its prep schools, Georgian architecture and spa heritage. Yet 42.04% of the women there are single and actively seeking an affair with a married man.

Noel Biderman says: ‘Does ‘Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells’ have an alter ego as Ashley Madison’s HardAsRock or RugbyJunky? There are a lot of well heeled, successful men there, however staid they may or may not be. A Tunbridge Wells man obviously holds promise as a lover, even if he is married.’

St Albans is 3rd on the list for would-be mistresses and Loughborough comes 4th.

With Oxford bottom of the list, it seems that while the single women of the city are inclined to stick to their studies, the academic world is not immune to passion.

Bit of Spice on the Side – Emma Bunton is spitting image of ‘typical cheater’


New research indicates that we should be able to spot cheating spouses at first glance: they look completely different from the average Brit.

The UK’s largest extra-marital dating website Illicit Encounters reveals that the average female cheat is 5ft 3”, aged 37, has a dress size 10-12 with blonde hair and blue eyes: visually very similar to ex-Spice Girl Emma Bunton. The site, which has over 670,000 members and represents 3% of Britain’s married population, carried out an extensive survey with over 5,000 of its female members.

The average woman in the UK however, looks similar to TV presenter Kirstie Allsop. Physically, the average British lady is taller at 5ft 5”, older at 40 years old, is a larger dress size of 14-16 and has black hair with brown eyes*.

Additional research shows that the average British woman earns £22,151 per year, works as a secretary or administrative assistant and drives a Chevrolet Matiz. The average British female cheater however earns much more – £37,000 per year – works in Heathcare, and drives a BMW.

Spokesperson for the site, Rosie Freeman-Jones said:

“I’m not surprised that women on the site tend to be more successful than the average female Brit. These women know what they want and are seizing life by the horns – and it’s these type of women that tend to excel across the board.”

“This data might indeed prove the saying that ‘blondes have more fun’.”

Women have a huge presence on the dating site. Each active male on the site is outnumbered by 3 active females. Additionally the site has seen a 20% increase in women signing up to the site over the last 3 years.
