I’m a sex expert – nine easy ways to shake up your sex life and take it out of the bedroom
KIM Kardashian has revealed she got frisky with now ex Pete Davidson in front of a roaring fire.
It was after her gran, MJ Shannon, 88, said it was the best place in the house to make love.
A study by sex toy brand Ricky has revealed that more than two thirds of adults in the UK have had sex somewhere other than their bed at least once in their lives.
Sexpert Alix Fox explains how couples can take their love lives out of the bedroom and “sexplore” the rest of their house.
Give them a special hello
Next time your partner’s out, text and tell them to ring the doorbell rather than using their key.
Greet them wearing as little as you dare, kiss them deeply as soon as they’re inside and press their back against the door.

It will ramp up the passion between you both.
If you’ve been struggling to fit in sex last thing at night when you’re both too tired, this is a great way of putting some intimacy into your evening straight after work.
Climb stairway to heaven
Step up your sex life on the stairs.
This is great for intensifying the passion between you.
Tease your partner by demanding they wait at the top while you wear a short skirt and stockings and slowly climb the steps.

The aim is to not let them touch you until you have reached the top.
This way you can show each other how the stairway really does lead to heaven.
Get steamy in the bathroom
The bathroom is equipped with mirrors, water and heat — perfect for making love.
Try jumping into the shower in your lingerie or a T-shirt.
The wet lace or cotton will cling to your curves, making it easy to grip on to each other.
Light up candles, and switch the main light off. It can create a hazy reflection in the mirror that can help you feel more sexy and comfortable in your skin.
Warm water on the skin is a fantastic way to provide relaxation, as your senses are heightened.
If you really want to take it up a notch, play a thunderstorm soundtrack. It will simulate a feeling of getting raunchy in the rain, while safely under your own roof.
Have sexy time on the sofa
The living room is a comfortable space in the house, so take full advantage of it.
There’s sofas, rugs and even a television to make use of, so you can maybe watch some Bridgerton or Normal People to help get you in the mood.
Have fun by getting your lover to sit on the sofa while you hide behind the lounge door, dangling your underwear around the door’s edge.
This playful, novel way of stripping off will drive your partner wild.
The sofa is the perfect piece of furniture for sex, as lovers can enjoy a spooning session before then getting down to business.
Get dirty in the laundry room
Take advantage of your washing machine’s cycle and get a free vibrator while you’re at it — it will look like a scene straight from an erotic movie but the cycle will take your pleasure to the max if you and your partner are up against it.
The noise of the machine can also wash away any other sounds your neighbours don’t want to hear.
And once a tumble-dryer cycle has been completed, grab a hot towel out and lay your partner down on it. This can take a relaxing oil massage to another level.
Turn your engines on in the garage
Your car doesn’t have to hit the road for you to make use of the back seat.
Studies have found that getting it on in the garage will help you relive teenage thrills — and get your heart racing at 100mph over the bonnet.
And as the garage is not the cleanest of places, it means you can get truly dirty — it’s every-thing that you wouldn’t want to do in the bedroom.
Rock the flowerbeds in the garden
Hell yes! Get green-fingered for a red hot time.
A night-blooming jasmine plant has flowers that open in the moonlight and fill the air with a heady, sexy scent.
It provides the perfect backdrop for you to sneak outside for a secret snog . . . and more.
Worried about either of you howling at the moon with pleasure?
Use a slipped-off pair of knickers as a makeshift gag to muffle your moans so next door don’t realise you’re getting frisky amid the foliage.
Cook up a storm in the kitchen
From whipped cream to spatulas, fruit and ice cubes, the kitchen is filled with inexpensive toys.
Sit on one of the worktops while your partner pleases you — you’ll find it’s the perfect height for some sexy fun.
Clingfilm can make brilliant budget bondage tape. It sticks to itself and is transparent, so that you will be able to admire every shiny, plastic-covered inch of your partner while they’re held in place.
My clients have discovered that clingfilm can feel much more comfortable than tight, pinchy handcuffs when using it to tie their partner to a chair.
Role play on menu
Head to the dining room and get excited for what’s on the menu.
One of you could be the demanding customer at a restaurant, the other the waiter or waitress who must serve their every need.

Because this is a familiar scenario, where one person is clearly in charge, you don’t need a wild imagination or ace acting skills to carry it off.
It’s a great way of getting a taste of dominance and submission.
