Joe Jonas made waves in the news by disclosing the name of the celebrity with whom he lost his virginity.
However, this revelation didn’t appear to sit well with the individual involved, and the internet is also expressing its discontent with him.
Recognized for occasionally oversharing about his relationships, the former Disney star turned to Reddit to candidly respond to fan inquiries, sharing the intimate details in a now-infamous ‘Ask Me Anything’ thread.
Jonas and his brothers, Nick and Kevin, had originally pledged to abstain from premarital sex at the start of their careers, a commitment symbolized by the purity rings they wore.
However, Joe’s perspective shifted when he began dating Twilight actress Ashley Greene in 2010.
Their relationship received significant media attention, and in his Reddit post, Joe openly shared details about this experience.
“I lost my virginity to a girl named Ashley,” he revealed, adding, “You can probably just Google it. It’s pretty easy to figure out.”
In recalling that night, he was unreserved: “I didn’t have any condoms, so I went to our drummer Jack’s room—who was my roommate at the time—and I tore his room apart looking for them.”
After a diligent search, he noted, “[I] found them underneath his underwear drawer.”
Joe added, “When he came home, he thought someone had broken into his room because his entire space was in shambles.”
He went on to share more personal insights, stating, “I was in dire need. It needed to happen then and there. Safety first, kids.”
However, Ashley Greene later suggested her discontent with his public revelation by sharing a cryptic message on her Instagram account.
The quote stated, “Class is timeless,” which many interpreted as a veiled response to Joe’s Reddit confession.
Jonas also shared insights into why he and Greene ultimately ended their relationship.
In a 2013 interview with Vulture, he explained, “We were together for almost a year. I was living out in L.A. by myself, and at the end of the day, long distance just didn’t work. It’s incredibly challenging.”
In October 2016, Jonas provided further insight to Entertainment Tonight, explaining, “I don’t know. I think life’s too short, you know?
“I mean, ultimately, I see myself as an honest guy. There are just those moments in life when you need to be true to yourself and true to the world.”
“I’m not trying to hurt anyone, but ultimately, I’m just sharing my stories and expressing what I feel from my heart.”
After his relationship with Greene, Joe eventually married Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner.
The couple welcomed two children together, but their marriage came to an end in 2023 after four years.
In a joint statement, they expressed, “After four wonderful years of marriage, we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage.”
“There are many speculative narratives about the reasons behind this, but this is truly a united decision. We sincerely hope everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children.”
Greene married entrepreneur Paul Khoury in 2018, and they have a daughter together.
