VALENTINE’S Day is traditionally a time to spoil your partner or show your love and affection for that special someone - but a shocking 87% of us would in fact ditch our significant other to spend it with a celebrity.

Research carried out by dating website, IllicitEncounters.com, shows that a staggering number of married people would neglect their spouse if a better offer was available.

For some it may be the chance to meet an idol or go on a date with the actor or actress of their dreams, for others it's a chance to escape the monotony of a stale relationship.
