Mostly known for her performance in the Pitch Perfect movie series and films like Senior Year and Jojo Rabbit, Rebel Wilson, 44, has become somewhat famous.
She recently attracted notice when passages from her writings on memoirs, “Rebel Rising,” became public. The memoir reveals, among other things, that Wilson lost her virginity at the age of thirty-five.
Wilson is currently working with fashion designer and Lemon Ve Limon founder Ramona Agruma on a sustainable clothesline. Following their confirmation of their romance in an Instagram post the year before, the couple revealed their engagement in February 2023. Wilson said then, “I thought I was searching for a Disney Prince… but maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney Princess #loveislove.”
Born via the practice, the couple welcomed their first child together in 2022—a daughter called Royce Lillian. Wilson wants to offer more personal life insights in her next book.

Wilson thought back on her experience of losing her virginity later in life in an interview with People magazine.
She said that People can wait until they’re ready or until they’re a little more mature. And that could be a good message as well. You don’t have to wait till you’re in your thirties like me, but young people shouldn’t feel under pressure.
Wilson said she used to feel ashamed about losing her virginity later in life. She remembered, ” Usually, I would just leave the room when the conversation was in progress. Then others who claimed, “Oh, at 24, it’s so late.” Then I’m seated here, considering, “Oh my God, my number is 35.” What the devil is going on? I’m going to seem like the biggest loser.
Still, the general response to her candor on this subject has been positive. Many people on social media appreciated her honesty. That’s commendable:
One person said she’s lovely and holds out for the nice things in life. Greatly respect.
The second person chipped in, “Nothing wrong with that!! I wish I waited! This helps to support her experience in a good way”.
Wilson tells in her novel that she lost her virginity to actor Mickey Gooch Jr., well-known for his parts in Deported and The Trial of the Chicago 7. 2015 saw the two share a moment in Wilson and Dakota Johnson’s film How to Be Single and were romantically linked.
Wilson said in an excerpt taken from People: “Micks, I know this might be news to you if you are reading this, but yes, I lost my virginity to you.” Then it simply happens; I, at last, have s**. And I suppose I finally receive those beautiful s** chemicals into my body, which truly ties me to him. Although I weigh the most, this amazing man finds me interesting. It sounds fantastic.
