Abbie Chatfield details awkward visit to ‘sex pub’ on Euro trip with boyfriend Adam Hyde

Abbie Chatfield has shared her awkward experience visiting a “sex pub” in Amsterdam while on a Euro trip with her muso boyfriend, Adam Hyde.

Abbie Chatfield has just returned from her four-week European holiday with boyfriend Adam Hyde – and boy, does she have a few stories to tell.

Debriefing on today’s episode of her It’s A Lot with Abbie Chatfield podcast, the media personality candidly shared an awkward holiday encounter when she and Hyde found themselves at a “sex pub” in Amsterdam.

“It wasn’t a sex club – it was a sex pub,” Chatfield said. “We walk in and it’s like a pub, like the Royal in Bondi, if you know it.”

But the former Bachelor star says that there was nothing sexy about the venue, which charged about €25 ($45) for entry.

“To the left there’s a room that looks like a gymnastics room. It’s got those plastic covered mattresses… There’s also cages, a cage room, with more soft mats in there. A little bar … downstairs there’s something but we don’t know what.”

Chatfield said things got more awkward when she and the Peking Duk musician were told to sit down by the bar with eight other couples.

Strangely, everyone facing was inward at each other “like we’re about to do a little battle or something”.

“I said to Adam, ‘I can’t look up.’ I was actually staring down, like I can’t look at these people,” she recalled, as her anxiety level rocketed.

“It felt like Adam and I were probably like fresh meat to these people. I feel like they may have been regulars.”

Chatfield said she could feel the stares, with one woman even staring at Hyde while “licking her lips” suggestively.

“It felt like I was a chunk of pork being thrown into the croc den by Bob Irwin,” she admitted. “It was crazy.”

So the duo decided to ditch the group after spotting a man with a Maori tattoo because if he was from New Zealand, it could have been a “high danger zone” if he recognised the high-profile pair.

But the “dungeon” wasn’t much better.

“We go to the dungeon … there’s a man with a fedora, suspenders, no shirt, just smacking his chook,” she shuddered. “They’re having a great time alone in the dungeon.”

Chatfield and Hyde then go into another room where she forced herself to “try to be horny” because this experience “isn’t in Australia”. But she just couldn’t feel at ease.

“We go into the other room and close the door,” she said, revealing they attempted to get intimate only to find they had an audience.

“There was a group of them in the window watching us have sex… I was like, ‘Adam, I hate this,’” she remembered. “At that point, I was trying to be a good sport. So this whole time Adam thinks I’m OK, but I went, ‘Baby, I f***ing hate this.’”

And with that the pair were out of there. Chatfield says the biggest reveal of all was that she’s “a prude” and she’s OK with that.

“I really hate public sex and I hate people seeing me,” she concluded. “I think also with this job, even going to bars and people screaming in my face, it’s not like a sexy thing. It’s not hot. It’s like a violation, actually, more than it is hot.”
