Rebel Wilson reveals she didn't lose her virginity until 35

Rebel Wilson has opened up about not losing her virginity until after she had turned 35.

The Australian actress, 44, described herself as a “late bloomer” and said she felt so “embarrassed” that she kept this secret from friends due to social pressure.

Discussing it ahead of the release of her autobiography Rebel Rising, she told People magazine: “Not everybody has to lose their virginity as a teenager. People can wait till they’re ready or wait till they’re a bit more mature.

“And I think that could be a positive message. You obviously don’t have to wait until you’re in your thirties like me, but you shouldn’t feel pressure as a young person.”

“Normally I would just leave the room when the conversation was happening,” she continued. “And then the people that said, ‘Oh, at 24, it’s so late.’ And then I’m sitting here thinking, ‘Oh my God, my number’s 35. What the hell? I’m going to look like the biggest loser.’”

She has been in a relationship with entrepreneur Ramona Agruma since 2022. The couple, who share a daughter called Royce, are currently engaged.

Wilson’s latest revelation comes days after she named former co-star Sacha Baron Cohen as the man whom she accuses in her memoir of being a “massive a**hole”.

She and Baron Cohen appeared together in the 2016 comedy Grimsby (released in the US as The Brothers Grimsby).

Baron Cohen has denied the allegations, calling them “demonstrably false”, with his spokesperson telling The Standard: “While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence, including contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby.”
