A worrying number of British fathers are using secret bank accounts to hide affairs from their partners.
Some 64% of dads in the UK have a bank account that their other half doesn’t know about, according to a new survey, with 21% using account number two for extra-marital activity, and the average amount of money kept secret is a not-insubstantial £2,450.
It’s not the only activity that dads try to get away with on the sly, with the survey from VoucherCodesPro.co.uk revealing that 38% use their second account for socialising, 14% for alcohol and 9% for sporting events.
But it’s not all bad. Before you start asking questions and trawling through phones, we should note that the most common reason for a second account is much more honourable.
Some 42% are using their secret safes to fund surprise trips for their family – now isn’t that sweet.
