A MUM thought to have had sex with a stag-do reveller on a Ryanair flight was egged on by his mates, it is claimed.
Friends of Tracey Bolton say she was asked to perform a lap dance on Shaun Edmondson because he was sad to leave his pregnant fiancée behind.
Video of their antics on a Manchester to Ibiza flight went viral but the mum of three insists they only simulated sex.
And her pal Kirsty Lawton said: “It shows how the internet can almost wreck your life for a four-minute drunken laugh.
“His mates egged her on to tease him because he didn’t want to leave his girl. The story had to be set straight. It’s crazy.
“Tracey is one of the most strait-laced women I know.”

Passengers said cafe manager Tracey, 39, had taken off her pants and was gyrating on Shaun’s lap after he asked around for a condom.
Chef Shaun, 31, of Windermere, Cumbria, and six-months pregnant missus Jenna Ross, 25, are thought to have gone to London to escape the storm.
Tracey’s boyfriend Nick McGarry is standing by her in Colne, Lancs.
He said: “She’s made me look a bit of a d*** but I know she was only messing about.”
Tracey previously took to Facebook to defend herself before deleting her account.
She wrote: “I am absolutely mortified. What started as a bit of drunken madness has gone worldwide.
“I am horrified but absolutely nothing happened.”
She added: “I haven’t stopped crying since I saw it. I am so embarrassed!”
Pals said she was simply giving a lap dance, rather than full intercourse.
One said: “She has gone into hiding as she is getting all sorts of accusations thrown at her.
“She insists she wasn’t having sex with the guy, but admits it looks bad.”
Her dad Stephen Bolton said: “People are getting mixed up. They have got the wrong side of the story.”
The Sun revealed how sous chef Shaun now faced a grilling from Canada-born Jenna, who has been with him for six years and shares a £200,000 bungalow with him.
He was said to have gone into hiding after the video went viral, with a friend telling MailOnline: “From what I understand he was supposed to be back [from Ibiza] by now – and he might well be.
“But he has completely gone into hiding since this has all kicked off.
“Apparently none of his family or girlfriend have been able to get in touch with him.”
Shocked onlookers described how the woman took off her pants before Shaun asked fellow flyers for a condom.
He called out: “Anyone got any jelly?” as Tracey gyrated on his lap.
Shaun was on a stag trip to the party island at the time, while Tracey was on a hen do.
Pals say Tracey, who runs Lakeside Café in Colne, has called in a solicitor as she plans to clear her name.
Friend Kirsty Lawton, also of Colne, said: “Nothing really happened. She did a fully clothed lapdance for a laugh, no sexy time occurred.
“The pair of them were being daft and it was all for a laugh.
“They didn’t know one another, as if you would do that with anyone let alone a stranger.”
After the footage went viral, Ryanair said: “We are looking into this matter.
“We will not tolerate unruly, disruptive or inappropriate behaviour at any time and any passengers who appear to behave in an unacceptable manner may be liable for further sanctions.”
