"In Bed With Kate" and Related Ventures

"In Bed With Kate" is associated with Kate Kozlova, a sex educator who hosts the "In Bed With Kate Podcast." This podcast features discussions on sexuality and spirituality. One episode, released on October 15, 2025, featured Tanya Tate, an adult film star, director, podcaster, and entrepreneur. The conversation covered topics such as career reinvention, sexual freedom, motherhood, and success in the modern adult industry. It also explored Tanya Tate's journey from Liverpool to Los Angeles, cultural differences between the European and U.S. adult industries, the story behind the Feel Tanya Tate stroker by Kiiroo, sexual empowerment, mental health, myths surrounding adult entertainment, and balancing motherhood, business, and personal life. Another episode of the podcast featured Tia Lynn discussing technology and the future of intimacy.

The name "Kate" is also associated with Emma Sayle, a friend of Kate Middleton. Emma Sayle founded Killing Kittens in 2005, a members-only elite sex club. Killing Kittens has over 200,000 members and hosts parties in grand houses and Mayfair clubs, often requiring black-tie attire. In February 2015, Emma Sayle reported that bookings for Killing Kittens' bondage-style parties had increased, attributing the rise to the "Fifty Shades of Grey" effect. She noted a near doubling of turnover in October when Torture Kittens, a bondage spin-off, was launched. Girls-only book club events, which include talks on how to be a dominatrix, also saw increased attendance. Emma Sayle described Killing Kittens as a safe environment for acting out sexual fantasies, with women as the main aggressor. In March 2025, Emma Sayle, at 46, launched a sex cruise featuring bondage nights, an adult cinema, sex toys in every cabin, and polyamory workshops. Emma Sayle attended Downe House School in Berkshire alongside Kate Middleton.
