‘There were no virgin vibes from him, he seemed to know what he was doing’
A former worker at King Charles’ home has come forward as the woman who took Prince Harry’s virginity, saying the pair romped in a field after downing ten shots of tequila, Baileys and sambuca.
Sasha Walpole claimed she and the prince slept together in the summer of 2001, with the whole affair lasting five minutes, The Sun reported.
“It was literally wham-bam between two friends,” Sasha, a digger driver, told the newspaper of the intimate encounter in July 2001, in what is the first time she has opened up about the tryst.

The Harry supposedly ‘aulder’ lady seems incredibly authentic and nice.
Fancy him calling her aulder, there’s only a two year age gap fgs, they were teenagers.
Harry really has no class or decency, I hope Sasha makes a heap of wad out of this revelation. #SashaWalpole pic.twitter.com/YjoA3EWu1N

Harry, who at 38 is just two years younger than the mum-of-two, sparked a guessing game after his memoir, Spare, disclosed that he had first had sex with an older lover when he was 17.
Sasha told The Sun the sex was “passionate and sparky because we shouldn’t have been doing it.”
The one-off encounter took place in a meadow behind the car park of the historic Vine Tree Inn in Norton, Wiltshire. At the time Harry was just 16 — a year younger than his autobiography claims, The Sun noted.
The pair had sex after leaving a party held at the pub to mark Sasha’s 19th birthday.
Sasha used to work as a stable girl at Highgrove, the country retreat of King Charles, and had attended polo matches with Harry.
After the encounter, Harry is said to have hid in a red phone box to avoid being seen — before Sasha’s friend drove a protection officer to him in her car.
Sasha, who was upset that evening about splitting up with her boyfriend, said the pair left he pub to have a cigarette, with Harry consoling her through the evening and buying her shots.
They had never intended to have sex, “it just happened”.
“It was exciting that it was happening. It was exciting that it was happening like the way it was. We were away for 15 minutes but the sex was about five minutes,” she said.
“He was young. We had been purely friends and it was a little bit naughty, in the sense that it shouldn’t have been happening,” she added.
“It wasn’t Prince Harry to me. It was Harry, my friend — and something that got a little bit out of control. It just so happened that he was a prince.
“Afterwards I did grab his bum and gave him a slap. It was with one hand. He had a lovely peachy bum — but he was young.”
Sasha told The Sun she was shocked that Harry had written about the encounter in his book, Spare, and that no one had mentioned it to her in advance.
“I lead a peaceful life — I didn’t invite this,” she said.
Sasha told The Sun she didn’t know Harry was a virgin, “there were no virgin vibes from him, he seemed to know what he was doing”.
Writing about the encounter in his book, Harry wrote: “I mounted her quickly, after which she spanked my ass and sent me away.
“One of my many mistakes was letting it happen in a field, just behind a very busy pub. No doubt someone had seen us.”
