The Journey to Embracing Love
In the world of glitz and glam where secrets are as common as sequins, Rebel Wilson (44, actress and comedian) drops a bombshell in her memoir, 'Rebel Rising,' revealing her first sexual partner was none other than Mickey Gooch Jr., her co-star in "How to Be Single."
"Micks, I know this might be news to you," she writes, adding a twist of humor to her candid confession.
Wilson, known for her roles in 'Pitch Perfect' and 'Senior Year,' opens up about her struggles with weight and how it impacted her view of herself as a sexual being.
"As a big girl, no one would ever truly find me sexually attractive," she admits. However, a wake-up call in the form of her mother's breast cancer diagnosis spurred her to seize the moment. "Life IS short," she declares, deciding to "slut it up" with the next suitable suitor.
Choosing Mickey Gooch Jr. as her partner in this intimate milestone, Wilson describes preparing for their night together with a mix of nervous excitement and practical research—yes, toys were involved.
Their brief romance in 2015 was filled with cozy dinners and cuddles, but it was Wilson's decision to invite Gooch to her NYC hotel room that marked the turning point in her journey towards self-acceptance and intimacy.
Despite their split, Wilson looks back at her decision to wait until 35 to have sex as a positive choice. "Not everybody has to lose their virginity as a teenager," she tells 'People',' advocating for waiting until one is truly ready.
Now engaged to jewelry designer Ramona Agruma, Wilson is exploring her sexuality further, opening up about her attractions and how societal perceptions have evolved.
