A 30-year-old British physical education teacher is facing serious legal trouble after allegedly having s3x with her 16-year-old student while the Wimbledon tennis tournament was playing on television.

Bronwen James is accused of engaging in a “s3xually charged relationship” with the teenage boy while working as a PE teacher at Bitterne Park School in Southampton, England.

Prosecutors told the court that James and the student allegedly began communicating on Snapchat after she initially rejected his request for her account.

Their messages reportedly became flirtatious, and the pair later met up, with prosecutors alleging that they kissed in a car before the relationship became sexual.

According to prosecutors, the two later met at James’ home, where they watched television and Wimbledon before allegedly kissing and touching each other.

The court heard that they allegedly went on to have unprotected sex.

Prosecutors also claimed that James liked the student to call her “Miss” when they were alone together.

The alleged victim reportedly said he initially believed the relationship was good but later came to realise that he had been groomed.

James has denied the allegations.

The trial faced a delay after the jury was discharged, with a new jury expected to be sworn in as the case continues.
