Ian Somerhalder Lost His Virginity at 13 After Watching His Big Brother Have Sex

Some of us lose our virginity pretty late in life, while others… well… lose it a bit earlier than most.

Such is the case with Ian Somerhalder, who revealed he lost his virginity with a 16-year-old at the young age of 13.

“[I was] 13. It was fun,” the actor told Andy Cohen on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy. “When you’re 13 and you’re a boy, you know, or a girl, but boys are pretty on it.”

The Vampire Diaries alum also said that he would spy on his big brother, Robert, who is seven years older, having sex and that it helped him prepare.

“He was quite a Casanova,” Ian said of his brother. “He used to have girls in his bedroom all the time and what I did was, I went into the bottom corner of his window and I pinched the Venetian blinds. I pinched the blinds down so I’d have a clear view, and then when he’d have girls over, I’d go outside and I would watch and I learned a lot.”

He continued, “We do what we had to do. This was the live-action organic version [of internet porn]. Now, kids are watching all this s–t on the internet and it’s destroying society.”

Ian married Nikki Reed in 2015 and together they share 2-year-old daughter Bodhi. We’re sure Nikki is grateful for his early education as well!
