Tourists admit wandering eye on holiday

Nearly a quarter of those in relationships eye up other people while on holiday, according to a survey.

But of the 24 per cent who confessed to ogling, almost half were caught in the act by their partner, the poll by travel agent www.sunshine.co.uk found.

Women were more worried than men about ogling, with 68 per cent of females saying they were often concerned about their partner eyeing other women on vacation.

But only 23 per cent of men were worried about their female partners ogling men. Just six per cent of the 1,582 people polled had no concerns at all in that area.

The survey also found that seven per cent had cheated on a partner, past or present, while on a trip abroad.

Just 13 per cent of men said they try to prevent their partner going on an all-girls holiday but as many as 47 per cent of women did not like the idea of their man departing on a lads trip.

Chris Brown, co-founder of sunshine.co.uk, said: "While going away with a partner can be an incredible experience, there's always the danger that arguments will arise if someone in the relationship can't keep their eyes off someone other than their partner!

"It was a bit of a shock that almost a quarter admitted to ogling someone else while on holiday and clearly it's something that concerns a lot of people, especially women."
