I would not be thrilled about a guy I slept with putting it in a book, anonymous or no, without checking with me. I don't care if it was a five minute roll in the literal hay. To me, it's frat boy shit. Not married father of two approaching his forties shit. I also thought it was strange that he described her as an “older woman” when this happened on her 19th birthday. I took it as maybe trying to not allow her to be found? I’m sure that’s not the case

I have had thoughts about putting it in my will to touch up any grays (white, in my case as I skipped straight to white) prior to my memorial. #vain

That was predictable. I have sat with this since we talked of it and frankly...I say get your money, girl. He did.
He was pretty explicit in the book. It wasn't just "I met a lovely girl, we had sex, and I carried on" which would still be not necessary to the book. At all. But men.
If he didn't want her telling her story to Pierce Morgan, he should have left commentary about "smacking his rump and sending him off to graze" and all that out of it.
He didn't need to include her. He did.
Learn a little something, Harry.
eta this does not mean yay Pierce Morgan, and I roll my eyes preemptively at the attempt that will be made there. He shouldn't be on the air, and that's on the network that continues to pay him.

She either wasn't talking about it or no one cared before. Now he made it a "thing" and of course she wants to put her story out there too. And of course PM is gonna be the first to bite. If I were Meghan, I'd be so annoyed at Harry for this part.

In most celebrity memoirs I’ve read first love/time is usually mentioned so it didn’t even cross my mind when I heard about it in Harry’s book. Now I see why it isn’t great (again I skimmed his because I didn’t care) and will pay attention more. Jessica Simpson just put out a book or something that I haven’t read yet but is talking about an affair she had with a male celebrity. Didn’t name names but named an event that they met at and an outfit so the media has been digging. If it’s who they say I’m 90% sure he was married at the time. I read the headline and I was all ohhh juicy but at the same time ouch if he was married and you put it out there Anyway it doesn’t make it right at all and I will look at this stuff differently from now on

I think w/JSimps it was bc that relationship was super problematic age wise and that was a big point to her story.
I might be remembering wrong.

I know it’s neither here nor there but going back to re-read the section about his virginity… it doesn’t seem that rude or …. Much of anything, to me.
“…I suspected he was referring to my recent loss of virginity. 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.“
I mean I guess it’s rude to call it inglorious and say that many things about it were wrong. But having sex behind a pub doesn’t seem - to me - that it would be glorious.
Then again , everyone’s point of reference is different. I hardly think fondly of my drunken college hookups as glorious, I’d say there was plenty wrong with many of them, and a “quick ride” certainly happened several times.

My hot take is that Harry wanted to convey that he was somehow seduced into debauchery by a much older woman, vs. “I got kind of drunk and lost my V card to a friend”.
Because the former is a much better story. And the better story will sell more books.
I really don’t think he considered this woman’s feelings, or the very predictable outcome that she’d sell her story now that he opened the door on something she’d kept quiet for 20 years.

Also Thursday confession that I had never read the passage, only heard the audio version.
And I thought he was saying “sent me to Grace”. Like that was a British slang term for an orgasm.
Graze makes more sense. In the equine theme.

"She liked horses, quite a lot, and treated me not unlike a young stallion" is rude as fuck.
I'd be pissed off if someone talked about me and my sexuality like that.

Like if someone famous writes about me in their book and I feel inclined to jump on that 15 mins of fame for some quick $$ I don't think the other person should be surprised is all
