Rebel Wilson’s Ex Just SPILLED Her Intimate Secret on Broadway

Rebel Wilson’s private moment is now Broadway theater. Mickey Gooch Jr., the actor and comedian who Wilson famously lost her virginity to, totally geeked out when Kathy Griffin read aloud Wilson’s description of him as a “great shag” during a recent Broadway performance. Yes, really.

The whole thing went down when Griffin was sharing details from Wilson’s memoir on stage — apparently Wilson had opened up about her intimate relationship with Gooch Jr. and called him out as excellent in bed. Gooch Jr.’s reaction? Pure excitement. He was here for the compliment, even if it meant his bedroom credentials were being broadcast to a packed theater.

The situation is peak celebrity chaos: a comedian’s most intimate detail becomes public theater material, her ex gets publicly praised for his performance, and somehow everyone’s cool with it. Wilson has always been hilariously candid about her personal life, so this feels very on-brand. Still, imagine sitting in that audience watching someone’s ex beam with pride over being called a good lay.
