Love & sex

I love that my boyfriend gets on so well with my dad, but I wish they’d stop getting drunk and fucking

“Dad never really took to any of my previous boyfriends,” began Sophie Jenkins, 26, from Swansea. “They just never hit it off like he has with Leon.”

Sophie and Leon started going out in December 2016. According to Sophie, the spark was instant, but previous experiences meant that when the time came she was hesitant to take him home to meet the family – particularly her father, Rhys.

“He’s chased more than one boy out of the house in his time! It got so embarrassing. No one was good enough for Daddy’s little girl.”

No one, that is, apart from junior bodybuilding champion, Leon Mathers, 24.

“Dad just wants to look after me that’s all it is. His heart’s in the right place. He’s a very conservative man, my dad, very old fashioned. So I was as surprised as anyone to see him going at it hammer and tong with my muscular boyfriend, like two mad stags with their dicks out.”

Rhys and Leon initially kept this information a secret from Sophie. They eventually decided it was right to tell her after she overheard them slamming in and out of each other through the thin walls of her childhood home.

“I can’t get a word in edgeways now, of course! It’s like they’d rather I wasn’t there!”

“It’s funny, really, ’cos he’d barely look at the poor boys I’d bring home before! There was always some sort of tension between dad and my exes and definitely not the kind of visceral sexual tension between him and Leon.”

But just because Sophie sees the funny side doesn’t mean it’s all happy families in the Jenkins household.

“If anything, Mum’s the one who’s ignoring Leon now! That’s typical parents for you – if one’s happy, sod’s law the other one is in a mood about something!”
