BROKEN sleep, busy schedules and demanding kids mean the average parent has sex half as often as they did before having children.

And a fifth can’t even remember the last time they were intimate, according to a survey by Moonpig.

Katie Meaghan, 33, and fiancé Ade Goldsmith, 40, now have sex once a month

At the other end of the spectrum celeb mum-of-four Tanya Bardsley, a TV regular on Real Housewives Of Cheshire, has sex with her Premier League footballer hubby, Burnley’s Phil Bardsley, every day . . . to stop him straying.

Here, four sets of parents reveal to Claire Dunwell and Alley Einstein how often they find time to get intimate with each other.

‘I GUESS I’LL HAVE TO BE PATIENT’

KATIE Meaghan, 33, and fiancé Ade Goldsmith, 40, an IT engineer, live in Bristol with daughter Calypso, two, and Katie’s sons Loki, ten, and Indi, four. The couple now have sex once a month and stay-at-home mum Katie says:

I’ve never been interested in sex – not even with my girlfriend

I made a sex rota for me and my NINE wives – it’s exhausting

“But now, with three kids — and Calypso in our room — getting time alone is tricky.

“Ideally, Ade would have sex every day but I would be happy with twice a week.

“More sex would be a release. I fancy Ade like mad.”

Ade says: “It’s difficult, we don’t get time to ourselves at all, really. I guess I just have to be patient.”

‘WE TRY TO KEEP THE SPARK ALIVE’

MICHELLE Lopez, 37, and husband John, 34, have sex once a fortnight. Michelle, a marketing assistant, is mum to Issy, 15, and Thomas*, five. John is a recording engineer. They live in Wimbledon, South West London. Michelle says:

“AT first we had sex up to six times a week. But when our son was born, I had to juggle time with both children.

“I breastfed and it was easier for him to sleep in our bed. John would end up on the sofa.

“We couldn’t be spontaneous and John would come home exhausted from work or I’d be sleep deprived. We’re lucky to fit in sex every couple of weeks, usually in the morning after the kids have gone to school.

“We’d prefer to have sex daily. Hopefully we’ll get it back once the kids are older.”

John says: “We try to remain close by cuddling and taking advantage of a spare 30 minutes to keep the spark alive.”

‘I WON’T RUN THE RISK HE WILL CHEAT’

NEW parents Katie Kasori, 22, and fiancé Meiri Praebybaj, 31, a plasterer, who live in Ilford, East London, have sex every day, despite their daughter Jassy being born ten months ago. Katie, a full-time mum, says:

“OUR love life is still as amazing as it was when we got together two years ago.

“Despite waiting three weeks to have sex after Jassy was born, things quickly got back to normal. Even while I was pregnant we had sex three or four times a week.

“Jassy usually sleeps through the night so we aren’t too tired. And we still have a weekly date night when a friend will babysit.

“Some mums’ sole focus is the baby — so their partners feels left out. If you don’t work on your relationship when the kids come along, you run the risk of your partner cheating.”

Meiri says: “Katie always looks amazing. For a relationship to last you have to make an effort — that includes intimacy.”

“We’re lucky if we do it four or five times a year. When we met 16 years ago we had sex up to three times a day.

“When Grace arrived we got a massive shock. Grace wasn’t an easy baby — she cried a lot and she was clingy. I found breastfeeding a struggle and battled postnatal depression.

“I focused on Grace, and Chris worked overtime as a doorman. When we saw each other, we were so tired and sex was the last thing on our minds. 

“Nowadays, it’s just on special occasions.

Supporting Ukraine Through Purchasing Power: The Initiatives Keeping the Country’s Economy Afloat 0 173

Alice Trout

Amidst the Russian invasion, Ukrainian creatives are launching initiatives to keep the country’s economy going by harnessing consumer power. Spend With Ukraine is one such online resource that connects consumers to Ukraine-based businesses across various industries, while the Ukrainian Emergency Art Fund allows for donations to support artists. Co-founder of Spend With Ukraine, Andrey Klen, emphasizes the importance of supporting the Ukrainian economy through purchasing decisions. He states, “Armies win battles, but economies win wars.”

Ukrainian brands are still operating and many are donating a portion of their sales to different needs to support the country. To sustain interest in supporting Ukraine through spending, increasing the visibility of these initiatives is key. As Klen says, “We want it to blow out.” These efforts not only help Ukrainian creatives but also support existing industries and provide a sense of normality in these difficult times.

Ensuring Safety and Consent in the Adult Film Industry: A Vital Discussion 0 258

Alice Trout

One topic that may be of interest to readers in the adult film industry is the topic of workplace safety and consent.

The adult film industry, like any other industry, has a responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of its workers. This includes providing a safe working environment, protecting workers from physical and emotional harm, and ensuring that all acts are consensual. However, the nature of the adult film industry can make it difficult to ensure that these standards are met. Actors and actresses may feel pressure to perform acts that they are not comfortable with, and there have been instances of abuse and exploitation in the industry.

To address these issues, it is essential for the industry to have clear guidelines and policies in place to protect the rights and safety of workers. This includes providing education and resources for performers, implementing strict consent protocols, and holding producers and directors accountable for ensuring a safe working environment.

Another important aspect of this topic is the importance of consent in adult film. Consent is a crucial aspect of any sexual encounter and must be obtained freely, enthusiastically, and without coercion. In the adult film industry, where performers are engaging in sexual acts on camera, it is especially important that consent is explicitly obtained and respected. This can be achieved through the use of consent forms and communication between performers before and during filming.

By discussing these topics, the industry can work towards creating a safer and more respectful environment for all performers and ensure that the rights and well-being of workers are protected.
