Sheila Vogel-Coupe

Sheila Vogel-Coupe is a prostitute working in Britain. She earns 250 pounds an hour. And she is living proof that age is just a number: she is an 85-year-old grandmother.

The Daily Mirror reported on Tuesday, that Coupe has been a prostitute for four years. But she recently had to take a break to recover from bowel cancer.

The passionate sex-lover says she is eager to return to her work.

Coupe turned to prostitution partly to overcome loneliness after her husband died.

"But the most important reason is because I love sex,” she said. “Even thinking about it makes me feel better."

Coupe has three daughters, three grandchildren and two great grandsons.
