Hugh Grant Engaged In “Sleazy” Public 3-Way, Say Witnesses

We’ve all seen people get a bit too amorous in public places, but celebrities usually like to keep their romantic activities behind close doors. That is, if you’re not Hugh Grant. Apparently, the actor put on quite the show for diners at a high-end eatery, engaging in a very public 3-way with a “mystery woman” and a pal. The Mirror even has named sources:

Fashion buyer Hannah, of Weymouth, Dorset, said: “They sat on the sofa next to us with the girl in the middle. Soon, Hugh started snogging her full-on. Meanwhile the other guy was touching the girl’s thigh. It was like Hugh accepted it.”

The woman then put her arms round the men and started stroking their heads. Hannah said: “Hugh put his fingers in her mouth. She was sucking his fingers.” Hannah’s friend Nicky Francis, 29, said: “Hugh looked intoxicated.” The trio left at about 1:30 am.

Hugh only had this to say about the incident:

Quizzed at his home in London yesterday Grant, 47, said through an intercom: “F*** off.”

Well, did they expect to be asked in for a cup of tea? (Or maybe some baked beans, given what Hugh keeps stocked in his fridge.)
