Kit Harington thinks he was too young when he lost his virginity but wanted to get the monkey off his back.
The 30 year old actor has admitted he doesn't think he waited long enough before having sex for the first time, instead deciding to get the monkey off his back when he was at a party as a young teenager. He said: "It was a typical sort of teenage thing, at a party. I was probably too young."

And when the interviewer for Elle magazine asked Kit if by "too young" he meant the tender age of 13, the hunk claimed they "weren't far off". He added to the publication: "I think the girl and I just kind of wanted to. You either hold on and do it right, or you're young and decide to get the monkey off your back."

And losing his virginity at a young age hasn't had any effects on Kit's romantic life, as he previously said it was easy to fall in love with his girlfriend Rose Leslie, whom he met on the set of 'Game of Thrones'. When asked what was his favourite series of 'Game of Thrones' to shoot, he said previously: "Because the country Iceland is beautiful, because the Northern Lights are magical, and because it was there that I fell in love.

"If you're already attracted to someone, and then they play your love interest in the show, it becomes very easy to fall in love."
Meanwhile, Rose, 29, previously revealed she is unlikely to reunite with her boyfriend on screen again as she wants to be known for her acting skills and not just by association to him.

She shared: I think we leave it at that. We had such a fabulous time working together on 'Thrones'. I think it's important to do your own projects that mean a lot to you individually, rather than be associated with someone else. I'm a big believer in doing your own thing.
