In the end, adultery in the UK is like wearing socks with sandals: legally fine, but socially frowned upon. You won’t go to jail, but you might end up paying for a very expensive holiday for your ex and their lawyer. And if you’re in the military, you’ll be scrubbing latrines for a month.
So, go ahead, enjoy your secret rendezvous—just remember that the only person who can put you behind bars is your spouse, and only if they lock the bedroom door. Otherwise, your heart might break, but your record stays clean. Now, pass the scones.
