Rebel Wilson is coming clean about doing the dirty.

The “Pitch Perfect” actress, 44, reveals in her upcoming memoir “Rebel Rising” that she lost her virginity at age 35, and is sharing her story to reassure fans that “not everybody has to lose their virginity as a teenager.”

“People can wait till they’re ready or wait till they’re a bit more mature,” Wilson writes in the autobiography, according to People. “And I think that could be a positive message. You obviously don’t have to wait until you’re in your 30s like me, but you shouldn’t feel pressure as a young person.”

The Australian native, who is now engaged to designer Ramona Agruma, revealed she felt “embarrassed” talking about sex as a teenager and even lied about doing the deed for the first time in her 20s.

“There was one vague time, I think I told my best friend, ‘Oh, yeah, I just did it to just get it over with when I was like 23.’ Just to really avoid the questions,” Wilson writes.

“Normally I would just leave the room when the conversation was happening,” she continues. “And then the people that said, ‘Oh, at 24, it’s so late.’ And then I’m sitting here thinking, ‘Oh my God, my number’s 35. What the hell? I’m going to look like the biggest loser.’ “

The “late bloomer” believes her experience in exploring her sexuality would have been “very different” if she was born in a different decade.

“It’s absolutely incredible, if I had been born 20 years later, I probably would’ve explored my sexuality more. I just knew I was attracted to men, and that was the normal thing.”

“And so when I started opening myself up probably more after my father’s death and realizing, oh, even though I’d seen marriage as a terrible thing and waste of time, I started opening myself up to that,” she adds. “And then only years later, meeting women and having feelings for a woman, and that, I just think it’s a sign of where society kind of was.”

Wilson came out in June 2022, posting a photo with Agruma to Instagram.

“I thought I was searching for a Disney Prince… but maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney Princess

#loveislove,” she wrote at the time.

The couple welcomed their first child, daughter Royce Lillian, via surrogate in November 2022 and Wilson proposed in February 2023.

Elsewhere in her memoir, Wilson claims “Borat” star Sacha Baron Cohen relentlessly tried to get her to get naked for a scene in 2016’s “The Brothers Grimsby.” The co-writer then instructed her to “stick your finger up my ass,” claims Wilson. He’s since denied the allegations.
