Couple: No regrets for phone booth tryst

BRIGHTON, England, Aug. 15 (UPI) -- A couple caught in the midst of a sexual tryst while taking shelter from the rain in a Brighton, England, phone booth said they do not regret their actions.

Ben Whelan, 34, and Rebekah James, 33, said they have no regrets about their 45-minute romp in the phone booth Wednesday despite being spotted by passers-by and officers at a nearby police station, The Sun reported Friday.

"We couldn't help ourselves," Whelan said. "We love the excitement of sex in public."

James said the pair have been going at it like bunnies since Whelan was released from an 18-month stint in jail on assault charges.

"We've made up for lost time," she said.
