Sex is out in the open and men often go with prostitutes every night of the week

British mother and daughter Ingrid and Rachel O'Leary are both prostitutes on Spain's Costa del Sol. But neither feels their life of vice is sordid or risky - and they love the riches they've earned.

'We're more like sisters than mother and daughter,' says Surrey- born Ingrid, 43. 'We like hanging out together and we prefer it when we work as a pair. It's our choice to work in this game.'

Her daughter Rachel, 26, explains, 'Our punters are just like everyone else out here. You get some nice ones, a lot of dull ones and a few bast*rds, but if we're together, there's less chance of any aggro.'


Ingrid moved out to Estepona, near Marbella, two years ago after working as a call girl through a number of London escort agencies. 'There are too many girls flocking to London from all over the world, so there isn't enough work,' says Ingrid. 'Out here, though, it's different. Sex is out in the open and men often go with prostitutes every night of the week. It must be something to do with the sunshine.'

Former estate agent Ingrid and her daughter first 'teamed up' as prostitutes when Rachel came to stay with her mother in Spain six months ago. 'I'd been running a brothel and wanted to go back to prostitution,' says Ingrid. 'Rachel's husband had just left her, she was living in a crummy flat in south London, and Spain seemed a much better option. I've always been close to Rach because it's often been her and me against the world.
