Man who spends his life with a 'really beautiful' £2,600 silicone sex doll is so besotted with her that he plans to propose

A man who shares his life with a £2,500 sex doll has revealed that he doesn't care if people judge him for getting intimate with lifelike silicone creation.

Phil, 58, from St. Helier on Jersey, regularly takes his inanimate companion, known as 'Trish', down to the local pub for nights out with his friends - and some people in the Jersey town now even say hello directly to the doll.

Appearing on Channel 4 programme Sex Toy Secrets, Phil opens up about his life with the blonde sex doll saying that he loves styling her for glamorous photoshoots and even plans to propose.

Phil ensures Trish, who he pushes along in a wheelchair, is always perfectly dressed up for nights out and his friends, who have come to accept the doll as his 'partner'. 

He even approached his local landlord at The Dog and Sausage pub in St Helier and asked permission to bring Trish in while he enjoyed a pint.

The landlord said: 'She doesn't come in dressed in raunchy underwear. She comes in looking very respectable. That's his partner. Fine.' 

Another friend added: 'He doesn't care and I think that's amazing. I think more people should be like Phil if I'm honest.'

One resident also said: 'It’s a small island so most people know each other. He probably gets a lot of stares because it is a bit off the wall isn’t it?'

In the hour-long programme, he also reveals that he's only been questioned once about his choice of life partner, and he told the woman who approached him that it was only the same as the 'millions of women who own vibrators.' 

While Phil admits to getting intimate with the expensive sex doll, he says he doesn't mind whether some people might find the idea of that strange.

Phil says: 'I’m never going to be one of these who denies having sex with them. There you go. Whether people judge me for that or they don’t, I don’t care.'

He also says: 'I’m not delusional, but it’s really great to have someone really beautiful to just sit and look at and admire sometimes, you don’t even have to touch them, they’re just there.'

He does, however, plan to get down on bended knee and pop the question to Trish, having already bought a ring. Wonder what she'll say.
