Prince Harry hit the headlines back in 2023 when his memoir Spare recounted the tale of how he lost his virginity.
Harry said he was 17 at the time of the encounter with “an older woman who liked macho horses and who treated me like a young stallion”.
He wrote: “I mounted her quickly, after which she spanked my ass and sent me away. One of my many mistakes was letting it happen in a field, just behind a very busy pub.”

Prince Harry news: Royal branded ‘deranged’ by Rupert Everett
However, one Hollywood A-lister claimed Harry wasn’t telling the truth at the time.
Speaking to Celia Walden – Piers Morgan’s wife – in the Telegraph, actor Rupert Everett called Harry “deranged”.
He also said that he used to feel “angry” at the way he’s treated his family, but Spare has changed his opinion.
Rupert said: “I think he’s deranged. Although, of course, nobody is giving him good advice.”
He added of Spare: “It’s made me change my view. I was angry before, and now I just feel very sad – sad for Harry. I felt so sympathetic towards him for years and I still do now.”

‘I’m just putting it out there that I know’
Not sympathetic enough to keep what he alleges to be the truth about Harry’s first time to himself, though.
“By the way, I know who the woman he lost his virginity to is. And it wasn’t behind a pub. And it wasn’t in this country. I’m just putting it out there that I know,” he said.

Celia asked if Harry “deliberately” set the whole scene elsewhere.
And she said Rupert responded with a “Cheshire Cat smile”.
She also asked how he knows the intimate detail – is it because he knows the woman?
“Yeah,” he told her.
Rupert also threw a cheeky dig at Prince Harry’s wife Meghan Markle during the chat.
He was speaking about their Netflix documentary when he made the quip, appearing to hint that she was acting during the fly-on-the-wall series. “I have to say, Meghan’s a better actress than I thought she was,” he said.

The real woman speaks out
However, Rupert’s comments may not hold much weight anymore, as the woman whom Harry allegedly lost his virginity to has since revealed herself.
Speaking to The Sun in 2023, Sasha Walpole, a former groom at Highgrove, claimed she was the woman Harry lost his virgnity to.
Sasha, who is a couple of years older than Harry, said: “I am the woman who took Harry’s virginity. It was literally wham-bam between two friends. The sex was passionate and sparky because we shouldn’t have been doing it.
“One thing just quickly led to another,” she then added.
“We didn’t set out to do it, and it wasn’t premeditated. He was young. We had been purely friends and it was a little bit naughty, in the sense that it shouldn’t have been happening.”
She admitted that she had slapped his bum after, describing it as “peachy”. She then said that they never spoke again after the encounter, though she wasn’t “disappointed”.
