A British pensioner who boasted on TV about romps with her Egyptian toyboy says she has sworn off sex for good after their acrimonious split.
Iris Jones, 86, stunned This Morning viewers when she spilled the beans about her steamy antics with Mohamed Ibrahim, 40. She was open about their use of K-Y Jelly and said their nights of passion left her feeling “saddle-sore”.
She married Mohamed, 46 years her junior, in 2020 in Cairo after meeting him on social media the year before. Her new husband moved to the UK in 2021, but they split in 2023. And now she says: “The idea of sex now makes my stomach turn. I’m not interested in men at all, not in companionship with them and certainly not sex with them.
“My experience with Mohamed has put me off relationships for life. I wish I’d never met him.” Iris, a former legal secretary, wed Mohamed on her third visit to Cairo in a civil ceremony, with only his dad in attendance as a witness.
Iris, who has two sons, Stephen, 59, and Darren, 58, says before she got married Stephen begged her not to do anything rash. Even the wedding reception being a meal in McDonald’s did not put her off, she says, adding: “I didn’t care. I thought I was madly in love, so I would have married him anywhere.”
But her desire turned to disdain and she kicked Mohamed out following “non-stop arguing”. She says: “I finally realised I had enough. I was so tired from all the housework and cleaning up after him that the physical side dwindled to nothing.
“Mohamed was only with me for my money. I can see that now, and I look back and think, ‘How could I have been so stupid?’ The Mohamed I met in Egypt was Prince Charming, but living in my bungalow he was like the Prince of Darkness.”
Bank statements show Iris transferred Mohamed thousands over the course of a year, which she claims were loans he has not repaid – which Mohamed disputes.
