Make sure you and the wife agree as to what the "sleeping arrangements" are before you lower the boom on behalf of your wife and you.
Also, find out EXACTLY what she saw, said and did...otherwise, you look like the "odd man out" of the scenario...
The son should have know already what's acceptable under your roof...now might be a little too late to delineate "proper" non-married guest sleeping arrangement etiquette...since you've already mentioned that this type of behavior has already been going on with no objections on your part, you may have already determined how this is going to end up already.
Then, what is it about this scenario that suddenly has your paternal instincts all on high-alert?
Maybe that's what you and the wifey need to discuss before you chat w/the kids...
Either way, you better be settled with this in your mind before you approach your son...
Good luck...

I'm with mgburg as well, find out exactly what she saw. There is a good chance that it was really nothing but sleeping, and not sex.
Now I know that I'm out of touch with modern society... but one of the nicest things in life is to fall asleep in someones embrace. When I had a girlfriend she would sleep over all the time and we would always spend the night in the same bed....but we never had sex. (Self control
)
The point was being able to be close to each other. (Love, not lust) I'd kill to be able to have that again
Talk to the wife first and get the full details. Then talk to him and make sure he knows whats right and wrong in your house.
