The couple who had sex in Britain's Queen Elizabeth's front garden fear their drunken illegal romp could cost them their jobs.Joy Taylor and Phil Carden - who stunned tourists when they stripped off and had sex in broad daylight on a private grass bank at Windsor Castle, where the 83-year-old monarch was in residence - are worried their employers will give them the sack for bringing their companies into disrepute.American-born consumer internet expert Joy, 35, is thought to be working at a major London firm as a freelance consultant, while 30-year-old Phil is a £50,000-a-year operations director at a recruitment firm.The pair - who spent a night in police cells and were cautioned for outraging public decency - were pictured at Jo's flat yesterday (30.04.09) but refused to comment on their romp.It has also been revealed that Phil split from his fiancée Lucy Merideth just days before the high profile incident.A friend said: "One minute they were booking weddings and honeymoons and the next she moved out of their house." The queen was said to be "blissfully unaware" of Jo and Phil having sex on the grounds of her home.A source said: "The queen was in residence at the time, but her private apartments are at the other end so she would have been blissfully unaware of it."But she was not particularly amused when, some years ago, a couple were caught bonking in a tree in her back garden - Windsor Great Park." Jo and Phil had sex beneath the castle's Garter Tower while over 100 passers-by looked on, with some even video-taping the session.

Referring to another's post, other true sayings: statistician's saying: in God we trust, all others bring data; a president's saying: trust and verify.

Ironic, not married, drunk, and on Queen's property. . .

Nothing wrong with two adults have sex willingly, but in public is disgusting and rude; not funny.
