Rebel shared the intimate detail about her sex life in her new memoir, Rebel Rising, in the hopes it would help young people because 'not everybody has to lose their virginity as a teenager.' 

The 44-year-old told People Magazine: 'People can wait till they're ready or wait till they're a bit more mature.

'And I think that could be a positive message. You obviously don't have to wait until you're in your thirties like me, but you shouldn't feel pressure as a young person,' Rebel added.

Experts have long highlighted the benefits of a healthy sex life, which include boosting your immune system and heart health, lowering blood pressure, strengthening muscles, improving sleep and even extending a person's lifespan.

Stephanie Manes, a couples therapist, told DailyMail.com the pressure to perform after waiting all those years can lead to anxiety that will kill the mood. 

She said: 'Anxiety is a big buzz-kill for arousal.

'It's pretty common for men to run into some trouble keeping an erection or having an orgasm the first time they have sex with a new partner. There can be a lot of pressure to please the woman and to prove that they can be a good lover. 

'Women have their own version of that, being totally self-conscious or preoccupied that they can barely feel anything going on in their bodies.'

And for people who wait to hop into bed after tying the knot, the stress is exacerbated, Ms Manes said: 'All this pressure is even higher when the man or woman you are having sex with is now your wife.'
