Prince Harry’s "older woman", who had a five minute romp with him behind a busy pub, was forced to finally tell her dad what happened after the royal revealed intimate details of their time together.
Sasha Walpole said she was forced to speak out and share her side of the story after the Duke of Sussex wrote about their tryst in his memoirs.
In his bombshell memoir, Spare, Harry detailed how a mystery “older woman” took his virginity in a field and “smacked my rump and sent me off to graze”.
But Ms Walpole, who is just two years older than him, has said the Prince forced her into speaking out after she kept mute on the five minute fumble for more than 20 years.
The two are said to have got together in a field behind a busy Wiltshire pub in the summer of 2001, on Ms Walpole's 19th birthday.

But she has now had to explain to her dad what had happened after the Prince’s explosive memoirs detailed the encounter.

“He has done this to my privacy because I was going to keep my head down and not talk about it. If it wasn’t in the book none of this would be happening.”
Ms Walpole said she told her mum, Lyn, 65, the day after it happened but her dad Tony, 71, didn't learn until 21 years later and only then cause Harry spilled the beans first.
She said she had thought she’d told Tony the same day told she told Lyn, but he “hadn’t listened because he didn’t want to hear about what his teenage daughter was doing.”

She said telling her dad was awkward because Harry had written about her slapping his backside, and it was "really cringey"
After it was released, Ms Walpole said her phone began exploding with texts and jokes about the incident and she feared she’d be exposed.
So she took it into her own hands to speak out before someone did so for her.
The former Highgrove Groom previously said the June 2001 encounter was a “wham-bam” between friends, where she ended up losing her belt.

Detailing the night, Ms Walpole said that Harry made the first move for their “moment of passion”.
There were some discrepancies between the two accounts however, with the Duke claiming he was 17 at the time, but Ms Walpole’s story saying it was during the summer of 2001 - when he was 16.
After deciding to go public, she recalled having to ring her dad on her way to do a food shop at Morrisons.

It was only later after talking to her mum that they realised he hadn’t listened all those years ago.
Ms Walpole met Harry whilst working at a groom at his dad's Highgrove House home and on the night they had been celebrating her 19th birthday.
She said the pair had downed ten shots before going outside and climbing into the field behind the pub.
