18-year-old Aleexandra from Romania hit headlines when she appeared on This Morning back in November last year to explain why she was selling her own virginity. And now, five months later, Aleexandra has revealed how much she auctioned her first sexual experience off for.

Speaking to Holly and Phil on the famous This Morning sofa, Aleexandra told the presenters she was planning to sell her virginity in order to pay for her university fees and her parents' mortgage. She said she was worried about her parents being evicted from their house unless she did something to raise money quickly, and said she believed she was making the controversial sale "for a really good cause".

"I am thinking it is strictly business, not emotional," she said.

But despite claims that Aleexandra's story was untrue - that her parents weren't in any financial trouble and that they wouldn't talk to her again if she went through with it - Aleexandra has revealed she did indeed sell her first time to the highest bidder, a Hong Kong businessman.

The unnamed millionaire who secured the grim purchase reportedly paid a staggering €2.3 million for the experience, according to The Mirror. Aleexandra made her sale using a German-based organisation called Cinderella Escorts, which is run by 26-year-old Jan Zakobielski, who doesn't think there's a problem with the service at all.

"No-one makes these young women do anything they don't want to do," he said. "They have their own minds and their own opinions on sexuality."

It's not known how Aleexandra's family has reacted to her decision to sell her virginity, or whether she's actually gone through with the deed yet. But if Aleexandra's uncle's thoughts on it are anything to go by, her mum and dad will be far from impressed with this life choice.

"Her mother and father are simply disgusted and can't understand why she is doing this," he told the MailOnline. "They have begged her not to do it, but she told them 'I'm 18 and I can do what I like with my body'."
