comedian and actress Rebel Wilson42, is starring in a new film titled The Almond and the Seahorseand she told The Hollywood Reporter that her on-screen kiss “opened” her heart. “I’d never kissed a woman before, so I was like, ‘Oh god, how is this going to go?'” the blonde beauty said of her onscreen smooch with her costar Charlotte Gainsbourg51. “If I hadn’t had the experience with Charlotte or the experience with that other woman, I don’t know if I would have ever met her [her partner Ramona Agruma],” she added. “Those experiences opened my heart to this as a possibility. I’m grateful for both of those experiences. It completely changed my love life.”
The star also told the outlet that prior to working on the film, she had a “situation” with a woman but hadn’t kissed one. “I’ve been in a situation with a woman before, not a sexual relationship, and we hadn’t kissed or anything,” the new mom continued. “But then the kiss with Charlotte came up. I didn’t think it was such a big deal or anything.”
Rebel gushed that kissing a woman at work inspired her to do it when she wasn’t on set. “Then, weirdly, when I kissed her in my professional life, I thought, well, maybe I should really do that in my personal life and see how it goes, which I did,” she said THR with a laugh. “That was in 2021 and then I met Ramona at the end of 2021.” That senior year Star then discussed how she felt the day she kissed Charlotte. “But kissing Charlotte was a big thing for me. I was so nervous that day because she’s so cool and I was really stressed. But it was great,” she said.

“I come from a pretty conservative family, so does Ramona, and we’ve been slow to tell the people in our lives,” Rebel shared. “That rushed it in a way that was really awkward because we didn’t have time to tell everyone and I didn’t want a journalist to be the one to publish a story like that.” , Rebel also denied rumors that she and her designer girlfriend were engaged. “Thanks for the well wishes but we’re NOT engaged!” she wrote over a cute selfie shared via her Instagram story.
