Even though motor neurone disease has significantly limited his physical movement, he might still spend his workdays pondering the universe’s most profound mysteries.
Nevertheless, the renowned British physicist Stephen Hawking has also shown interest in more earthly pursuits.
Today, Cambridge University acknowledged that the 70-year-old has frequented a swingers sex club in California.
The revelation came to light last week when a U.S. website reported that Professor Hawking had visited Freedom Acres club in Devore, arriving with a group of nurses and assistants and allegedly paying for young, naked performers to entertain him privately.
It has been asserted that the professor visited the club within the last five years.
A source claimed: ‘I have seen Steven Hawking at the club more than a handful of times.’
However, a spokesman for Cambridge University stated today: ‘It is not true that Professor Hawking is a “regular” visitor to the club in question.
‘This report is greatly exaggerated. He visited once a few years ago with friends while in California.’
This isn’t the first occasion the professor has been associated with a risqué establishment.
Previously, he was photographed reveling in the company of young ladies at Stringfellows club in London.
Peter Stringfellow, the owner, even expressed his admiration for the professor.
He shared: ‘I am frequently asked during interviews about the individuals I have met who have left the greatest impression on me.
‘Among all the film stars I’ve encountered, most are genuinely nice people, rock stars are quite enjoyable and entertaining, and some of the wealthiest individuals on the planet possess surprising humor, but when all is considered, Professor Hawking is The Man.
‘Undoubtedly one of the most intelligent individuals globally, possessing one of the finest minds, and on top of that, his courage leaves me in awe – but he remains very human.’
‘I recall asking him whether he preferred to discuss the universe or simply enjoy watching the girls. The answer was straightforward: ‘The girls.’
In 1965, Professor Hawking wed Jane Wilde, with whom he had two sons and a daughter.
That marriage ended in divorce in 1995, after which he married Elaine Mason, his former long-term caregiver, but they parted ways in 2007.
