Model gets £26k selling thong she claims she wore after sleeping with Mike

A model has just earned herself £26,000 selling a thong she claims she was wearing on a night she had sex with Mike from Love Island.

Lucy Danes listed the yellow bikini thong on eBay for £4.99 originally, but ended up getting 34 higher bids. She posted the listing on Facebook, saying: “Around four months ago I slept with Mike from Love Island. He banged me in some woods. I’ve decided to [put] the pants I had on that night for sale they still ain’t been washed what you reckon they worth”. She added: “Tag a mate that might want them”.

According to the now finished eBay listing, the winning bid was for £26,100. The bikini is listed as “used” and the bidding war ended last night. The seller has 100 per cent positive buyer feedback so far.

The aspiring model is from Manchester, and posts a lot of her used clothing for sale. In another listing she said: “Worn tights for sale worn in gym for two weeks without washing perfect for a smell. Full of sweat and moisture. Tag a mate that will want them. Going like hot cakes”.

She also posted a picture of her gym shorts, captioned: “Last ones sold for £1223 on eBay. Worn for a week in gym without a wash.”

Yes, this is real life.
