Rebel Wilson Reveals the Actor Who Became Her First Intimate Partner at 35

Rebel Wilson, in her memoir, shares that Mickey Gooch Jr. was her first intimate partner at 35. "Micks, news flash: I lost my virginity to you. You were the first to read my book," Wilson reveals to her "How to Be Single" co-star in "Rebel Rising" (via the Daily Mail). Wilson, now 44, confirmed this to the New York Times. The "Pitch Perfect" star reveals that her weight struggles delayed her decision to have sex, believing that no one would find her sexually attractive. Her mother's breast cancer diagnosis inspired her to live in the present. Life is short. I wanted to experience sex. 

Experiencing love, she declares, putting it out into the universe that she's ready. I planned to embrace the fear and dive into it. I intended to be more open with the next guy, who appeared to be a potential spouse. Wilson dated Gooch briefly in 2015 and they were spotted being affectionate on a dinner date in Manhattan. 

The "Senior Year" star reveals in her memoir that she felt at ease sleeping with him just a month into their relationship, so she flew him to her NYC hotel room. Wilson prepared for the big night by watching porn and using a vibrator, keeping thoughts of intimacy in her mind. I now live in my body and I love it. Now I have a boyfriend who is handsome and rich. 

However, they broke up in September 2015, with a source saying it has been tough for him. They could get back together, you never know. Wilson now sees losing her virginity later as a positive experience. "Not everyone needs to lose their virginity as a teenager," the "Isn't It Romantic" star said. "You can wait until you're ready or more mature. You don't have to wait until your 30s like me, but you shouldn't feel pressured as a young person." 

In Feb. 2023, Wilson announced her engagement to jewelry designer Ramona Agruma. The "Hustle" star recently shared with People about her exploration of her sexuality in her 40s, realizing that being attracted to men was considered the norm. After my father's death, I began to change my perspective on marriage. Despite previously viewing it negatively, I started being more receptive to the idea. Over time, I developed feelings for women, which I believe reflects the societal shift happening at that time.
