Royal Revelations: Prince Harry’s Humorous First Encounter with a Digger Driver

In a surprising twist, Prince Harry's teenage years have become the talk of the town after he shared a rather amusing revelation about losing his virginity in a field behind a pub.

The details emerged from his memoir “Spare,” where he described the experience as far from glorious.

During a recent segment on the Today Show, host Karl Stefanovic couldn't contain his laughter upon hearing that the young prince had his first s–ual encounter with an older woman, a digger driver named Sasha Walpole.

Walpole, now 40, has stepped forward to claim the title of the royal's first partner, clarifying that she is only two years older than Harry.

As Stefanovic engaged in the conversation, he maintained a light-hearted tone, even jokingly asking his guest, Russell Myers, the royal editor for the Daily Mirror, what exactly a digger driver was, likening it to something out of a children's show.

The comedic undertone of the discussion contrasted sharply with the serious nature of the revelation.

Sasha expressed her mixed feelings about Harry's description of their encounter as “inglorious.”

While she doesn't take issue with the less-than-flattering label, she questioned why he chose to divulge so much detail about their brief liaison.

Royal commentator Robert Jobson weighed in on the situation, suggesting that Meghan Markle might not appreciate Walpole's candidness regarding her time with Harry, especially given the nature of their relationship.

Jobson took to Twitter to share his thoughts, noting that while Walpole seems down-to-earth and honest in her interviews, her revelations could stir trouble for the Sussexes.

He remarked that Harry initiated the conversation by writing about his past, thus opening the door for Walpole to share her side of the story.

This back-and-forth has certainly added fuel to the ongoing discussions surrounding the royal couple.

Walpole recounted the specifics of their encounter, describing it as a passionate five-minute escapade while Harry's security team searched for him in a blue Ford Fiesta.

The incident, which occurred in July 2001, has since become one of the most talked-about moments from Harry's bestselling memoir.

She revealed that the encounter followed a night of heavy drinking, with the pair consuming ten shots of tequila, Baileys, and Sambuca before taking their rendezvous outside.

Interestingly, commentators have noted the irony in Harry referring to Walpole as an “older woman,” as she is actually younger than his wife, Meghan Markle.

Jobson pointed out this twist, emphasizing the peculiarities of the royal narrative.

Angela Levin, another royal commentator, echoed this sentiment, suggesting that Harry cannot complain about invasions of privacy when he has chosen to share such intimate details himself.

Walpole elaborated on the circumstances leading to their spontaneous encounter, explaining that they snuck away to avoid Harry's security team, who were concerned about his smoking habit—something Prince Charles had disapproved of.

She recalled the setting vividly, describing it as a warm summer evening in a meadow, with grass nearly up to their ankles.

The encounter, while seemingly impulsive, was filled with youthful exuberance.

Walpole admitted that they didn't plan for it to happen and that she was unaware of Harry's virgin status at the time.

“There were no virgin vibes,” she quipped, adding that Harry appeared confident and experienced, despite the reality of the situation.

Reflecting on the experience, she candidly stated that it was a moment driven by passion rather than deeper emotional connections.

“It was quick, wild, and exciting,” she said, acknowledging that their intoxication played a significant role in the encounter.

In hindsight, she noted that Harry didn't prioritize ensuring her happiness during their brief interaction, attributing this to their youth and lack of understanding at the time.

After their encounter, Harry and Walpole never kept in touch.
