Teri Hatcher Reveals the Surprising Place She Lost Her Virginity: ‘I’ve Never Told This Story’ – Globe Magazine

For Teri Hatcher, it’s all about the motion of the ocean.

The Desperate Housewives star, 60, revealed on the Thursday, October 23, episode of her Desperately Devoted podcast that she lost her virginity in her parents’ waterbed.

“I think the first time I was going to have sex [was] as a high school student in my parents’ house in their waterbed,” she revealed, admitting that she was so young, she “didn’t know what a condom was.”

When it came time for the big moment, she was scrambling as she searched for protection.

“I was looking in my parents’ drawers to see if there was anything,” she recalled. “Still, to this day, I’ve never told this story to anyone.”

She continued, “I found this thing that was like a white, almost like a Band-Aid, but thicker than a Band-Aid.”

Hatcher could not remember what the Band-Aid-like object she found was, but she described it as “three or four inches long.”

Regarding her finding, she explained, “I had it in my head that maybe you put it over the tip of the penis to keep [it from coming out]. This is how inexperienced I was going into having sex.”

Because Hatcher couldn’t figure it out and didn’t really know what she was doing, she decided to move forward without using protection since the man didn’t have a condom on hand either.

“I just know that I’m lucky I got out alive,” she said. “I’m lucky I’m here today to talk about any of it. If we’re really going to examine my sexual history, it’s just filled with error.”

Hatcher has been married twice. In June 1988, she wed Marcus Leithold, but they divorced the following year. On May 27, 1994, she married actor Jon Tenney, and they welcomed daughter Emerson in 1997. However, they divorced in March 2003.
