Vicky Pattison in tears after meeting men paid to cuddle MARRIED women at £650 a time in World of Weird
Geordie Shore star also visits a cuddle cafe in Japan where men pay to use women's bottoms as pillow
VICKY Pattison was reduced to tears after meeting men who are paid to CUDDLE married women – at up to £650 a time.
The former Geordie Shore star tried out Japan’s Rose Sheep service – which provides young men to listen to women and hug them – for the Channel 4 show World of Weird.
But she revealed the thought of married women needing to seek comfort from the men was “the saddest thing”.
With tears in her eyes she added: “I’m really upset.”
She spent time cuddling with Shingo, a psychology student who charges £130 for two hours and £650 for 16 hours, after a day of investigating Japan’s weirdest cuddling quirks.
She couldn’t resist a bit of flirting, telling him: “Girls will fall for you.”
She added: “I love falling in love it’s the best. I fall in love practically everywhere I go.”
After her hugging session, the I’m A Celeb star revealed: “I’m really confused. I was expecting it to be really creepy and for me not to relax once. I was so wrong. I really misjudged it.
She added: “He is probably providing more comfort to these women than their husbands and after everything I’ve seen today, the fact that a woman isn’t getting just a conversation or piece of mind from her husband is the saddest thing.
“I’m actually really upset.”

Suzumiya, the owner of Rose Sheep, said the cuddling service is increasingly popular with married women, with most clients are in their 30s and 40s.
She said: “The divorce rate is soaring in Japan and some women feel they can’t talk to their husbands or boyfriends so they need a mental partner to relieve the stress in their life.”
Vicky also visits a Cuddle Café, where men come to hug beautiful women – and pay £15 for a five second squeeze and £12 to use their BOTTOMS as pillows.
Cuddle worker Nico shows her the ‘menu’ for the service which includes £50 for a 20 minute cuddle, £4 for a stroke and £8 for a tickle.
Café owner Shinji said: “It’s cuddling, but a lot of people come her for a chat, to watch TV. It’s like having your girlfriend over at their house for a date.”
Vicky replied: “I’m really passionate about cuddles. I think I might prefer cuddles to sex. Can we have a cuddle?”
Vicky tried the weird sex trend of Zentai in an earlier episode.
World of Weird is on Channel 4 at 10pm on Wednesdays.
