Intriguingly, the answer may well lie not in the throuple’s sexual predilections but rather in Kuper’s politics. So why publish the article now? Why would the Daily Mail be so bothered about the Druckerman/ Kuper/“N” triumvirate to recycle a sexual act that took place in another decade? In other words, the sexual encounter with the third party – known only by the initial “N” and described as a “pretty slim brunette with a friendly face” – took place 13 years ago. Druckerman, now aged 53, wrote her book some years ago: it was published in 2018 on the back of a magazine article in Marie Claire in 2016 that first disclosed her unusual birthday gift of a third party. The book extract published by the Daily Mail isn’t some new, just out on-the-shelves hot property that newspapers have been clamouring to serialise. But rather a chap called Simon Kuper, a fellow journalist and author. The article doesn’t name him but the husband – and beneficiary of Druckerman’s largesse – is neither a footballer nor an ageing rocker. “You quickly lose track of who’s at which stage,” she writes, adding by way of explanation: “There’s a lot of ambiguous moaning.”Īll well and good if you like that sort of thing. The search for the partner over, Druckerman then dives (thankfully… ahem not too deeply) into the mechanics of an activity that many of us may have previously presumed was the preserve of footballers and pop stars. Inside was a two-page spread – an extract from Druckerman’s book – which describes in some detail her hunt for a suitable woman to participate in said husband’s 40th birthday gift. (Presumably one needs a bracing cup of tea before engaging in a threesome.) Accompanying the headline was a photograph of the wife in question, the author Pamela Druckerman, her face turned coquettishly towards the camera, a cup of tea at the ready.
“I gave my husband a threesome for his 40th,” screamed the headline beneath the newspaper’s masthead. The threesome (or more) is not to everyone’s taste and one suspects Daily Mail readers may well have dropped their collective toast, marmalade-side down, at yesterday’s front page.
Woody Allen, perhaps not the best adviser on matters of the heart, once remarked: “I believe sex is a beautiful thing between two people. The problem with threesomes, a colleague explained only last week, is there are too many feet.
