Jennette McCurdy recalls losing her virginity as a teenager

Jennette McCurdy has some pretty crazy confessions about his past!

The Nickelodeon star dissected a very uncomfortable scenario in her love life where she found herself romantically involved with someone significantly outside of her age range.

Jennette McCurdy rose to fame on Nickelodeon when she starred in the hit series “iCarly.”

Jennette McCurdy says her relationship with age gap started on set

The actress revealed to Alex Cooper on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast that a relationship she formed with a 30-year-old man when she was just 18 inspired her new novel “Half Her Age.” McCurdy’s book was based on the life of a 17-year-old, Waldo, who was in a romantic relationship with his teacher, Mr. Korgy.

She explained that they had a relationship on one of the sets she worked on. According to her, “I was just working,” she revealed. “I think I was 18 at the time he started working on the show. I think so. I’m not sure. It’s possible I was younger, but I was most likely 18.”

She remembers them staying on set while everyone else was gone and bonding over her favorite movie and music before things progressed until he came to her apartment.

The star revealed that she had been living away from her mother for a while, and one day he came to her house drunk with beer stains all over his shirt, which was definitely a “red flag everywhere” in hindsight.

McCurdy went on to say that they ended up kissing several times after she explained to him that she didn’t want sex before marriage because of her affiliation with her Mormon roots.

The TV star remembers always feeling strange vibes from the man’s friends’ wives whenever they met, and in hindsight she concluded it was because they knew he was doing the wrong thing.

Nickelodeon alum claims ex took advantage of her virginity

McCurdy noted that her lack of interest in men in her age group gave the older man even more influence and, although he was in a relationship at the time, he still pursued her. She also talked about how he would force her to indulge his fantasies because she wasn’t ready to have sex at that time.

Although her mother was very ill at the time, McCurdy shared that she lied her way out of their apartment just to spend time with her then-boyfriend in a hotel room. During one of their hotel visits, she revealed that he had asked her for oral sex, a request that really confused him. According to her:

She described it as a difficult entry point to any real form of sexual activity, as she felt the constant pressure to be who her previous girlfriend was, even though she was absolutely lacking in experience.

“There were lines like, ‘I have to know that my needs are going to be met. That’s something that – I’m a man in my 30s – and it’s something that I’m used to, and it’s something that I have to know,'” McCurdy added.

Jennette McCurdy had another scary episode in her past

The author’s book is quite open about her life, and in 2023, she revisits a scary moment when she almost became a mother. The Blast reported that McCurdy revealed on her podcast that she was taking acne medication from a dermatologist, which required her to have frequent blood tests.

She said she was ordered to follow several guidelines regarding the drug, one of which was to never become pregnant while using the drug and to always have blood tests every month.

Then, one faithful day, when she called to reschedule her dermatologist appointment, she received a very upsetting call regarding the possibility of pregnancy due to the test result. The news immediately brought her to her knees and she rushed to the dermatologist’s office, where things improved.

It was eventually confirmed to be a false negative due to fluctuating hormone levels caused by the drug. She took a second test to confirm and noted that she left the office with a vital lesson, which was to stop treatment for her mental health.

The 33-year-old’s perspective on becoming a mother

The media personality, however, left room for the possibility that she might change her mind about parenting in a few years. As stated by The Blast, McCurdy stressed that his current form didn’t want anything to do with a child.

The author also admitted that despite her strong determination, she has seen herself change a lot throughout her life, and the last thing she wants to face is regret for not having planned for her future self to get pregnant.

McCurdy noted that her decision to freeze her eggs is driven by the fact that she doesn’t want to live a life of regrets. However, learning about the process of extracting and freezing eggs left her horrified, according to her:

“I heard that my body is going to feel like I’m pregnant. I’m going to have difficulties, emotions, mood swings and hormonal changes twenty times greater than a normal period,” expressed the star. McCurdy admitted, however, that she was trying to weigh her options and that it remained complex. In his words:

Jennette McCurdy pleaded for solitude as a 2024 New Year’s gift

“I wish I could keep my out-of-office answer for all of 2024. Unfortunately, I can’t. Happy New Year 2024,” the star wrote in her plea for continued relaxation and detachment.

The statement doesn’t stop there; she also added, “I’m out of the office for the month of December to escape from all of you. Please leave me alone. If your message is urgent, still leave me alone.”

McCurdy also left her assistant’s number in the email for anyone who wanted to contact her, but she blurred the number to avoid unwarranted calls.

It was a tough bill to swallow about Jennette McCurdy, but good for her for pulling through!
