Rupert Everitt revealed on Friday that he knows the identity of the mysterious older woman whom Prince Harry claims took his virginity in his highly anticipated memoir Spare.
The Duke of Sussex dominated headlines last month following the release of his autobiography, in which he confessed, amongst many other things, that he lost his virginity in a grassy area behind a pub. Rupert, however, has revealed that the royal has kept many details to himself, such as the true location of the encounter whilst also revealing he knows the name of the woman in question.
Talking to the Telegraph magazine on the day the memoir was released but was published on Friday, Rupert revealed: “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.” When asked if he was suggesting the duke had purposefully tried to cover his tracks to protect the identity of the woman involved, the St.Trinian’s star reportedly replied: “I’m just putting it out there that I know.”
In the book, Harry recalls the meeting as an “inglorious episode”. He penned: “I had suspected he was referring to my recent loss of virginity. The inglorious episode, with an older woman. She liked horses, quite a lot, and treated me not unlike a young stallion.
“Quick ride, after which she’d smacked my rump and sent me off to graze.
“Among the many things about it that were wrong: It happened in a grassy field behind a busy pub. Obviously, someone had seen us.”
The book shocked the nation when it went on sale ahead of its planned publication date, in Spain. In major bombshells during the memoir, Harry reveals what the then Duchess of Cambridge thought when he told her and Prince William that he was dating Meghan Markle.
