Sending sexy text messages is all the rage with one in nine Brits ‘sexting’ their partner every day, according to a new study.
Nearly half of all adults - or 47 per cent - send ‘sexts’ to their other half, the survey found, but one in 10 have mistakenly texted an inappropriate message to a friend or family member.
And one in seven of those in a relationship (14 per cent) have deleted ‘sexts’ from their phone so that they don’t get caught out.
The poll of 2,000 adults by mobile phone experts Recombu.com also found almost one in five phone users are risking their relationship by secretly sexting people other than their partner.
And 12 per cent have given their number to someone they’ve flirted with, despite already being in a relationship.
However, ten per cent of unfaithful men have been caught sending a ‘sext’ to their partner that was meant for someone else.
And, although 19 per cent of men think romantic video calls make their love life more exciting, intimate pictures and videos of celebrities regularly cropping up in the media make a further 14 per cent of cautious Brits too scared to do so.
