Just in case you were wondering, the deputy prime minister of Spain is definitely not a lesbian.
But for the record, she does seem rather pleased with the question, flushing to <i>El Mundo</i> that: "At last someone has asked me."
There were internet rumours doing the rounds last week that she'd shacked up with a television sports presenter, but - deep breath - Maria Teresa Fernandez de la Vega - says it just ain't so.
Apparently, her mum keeps on trying to marry her off for ages, but happiness for her is "being alone on her sofa, with a little music, without having to listen to anybody, and with the phone not ringing."
The UK doesn't have a deputy PM anymore, but fear not: We're still trying to dig up something saucy about the last one - John Prescott. When we get there, you'll be the first to know.
