Joe Jonas explained why he shared name of celebrity he lost virginity to after she had brutal response to comment

As a fella who has been famous since he was a teenager, you’d think that Joe Jonas would have the concept of a kiss and tell down pat.

But it seems the former Disney Channel star, 35, forgot the phrase ‘a gentleman never tells’ when he decided to start an ‘Ask Me Anything’ thread on Reddit back in 2016, as he ended up spilling the story of how he lost his virginity.

While sharing the detailed account of his first time and how he ‘demolished’ his mate’s room in the process, the actor and singer also decided to reveal who he was having fun with – completely unprovoked.

The second-eldest Jonas Brother didn’t make any attempt to conceal his lady friend’s identity and cut right to the chase by outright naming her – while seemingly encouraging his fans to search up their relationship online.

In the extremely honest post, he wrote: “I lost my virginity to this girl named Ashley. You can probably just Google it. It’s pretty easy to figure out.

“I didn’t have any condoms. So I went to our drummer Jack’s room – who was my roommate at the time – and I demolished his room looking for them.

“[I] found them underneath his underwear drawer. When he came home, he thought somebody broke into his room because his whole room was demolished.”

Explaining he was ‘in dire need’, Jonas then signed off with the wise words: “Safety first, kids.”

Obviously, just as the Camp Rock star had suggested, a host of his fans did search up his former flame, who happened to be Twilight actor Ashley Greene.

He dated the Florida-born star for just under a year when he was 21 years old, before they split in 2011.

When Jonas decided to bring the intimate details of their short-lived romance up five years later, it appeared as though Greene, understandably, wasn’t very impressed.

She seemingly hit back by posting a cryptic quote on Instagram, which read: “Class is timeless.”

A week later, the singer decided to offer up an explanation as to why he opted to air the details of his rendezvous with Greene on Reddit.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight in October 2016, Jonas became quite philosophical as he said: “I don’t know. I think life’s too short, you know?

“I mean ultimately, I think of myself as an honest guy. There are just those moments in life where you have to be true to yourself and true to the world.

“I’m not out to hurt anybody, but I think, ultimately, I’m just telling my stories and what I can say from my heart.”

It’s an interesting explanation, that’s for sure.

Greene got hitched to entrepreneur Paul Khoury in 2018, who she shares her daughter with.

Jonas was married to Game Of Thrones star Sophie Turner and the pair have two children together, however, they divorced last year.
