Since breaking through in Hollywood in the early 2010s, the 44-year-old Australian actress Rebel Wilson has become one of the most popular comedy actors.
Earlier this year, Wilson published an autobiography where she takes the reader on her journey through Hollywood. Previously, much has been written about her naming the British actor Sacha Baron Cohen in the book, accusing him of indecent behavior during the filming of the film “The Brothers Grimsby” in 2016.
But in the book she also makes revelations about an unnamed member of the British royal family, writes People Magazine.
Drugs and orgies
In the book, Wilson writes that back in 2014 she was invited at the last minute to a themed party by a male member of the British royal family whom she describes as “fifteenth or twentieth in line of succession”. The person is said to have said that they “needed more girls”.

“The party was wild. Men toured on horses in a field, girls dressed as mermaids were in the pool. The property was huge, and because you had to drive a long way to get there, people had been allocated rooms to spend the night,” she writes.
She further describes seeing the unnamed British royal vase around the party. After a private fireworks show, a man came out at 2 a.m. with a large dish of what Wilson thought was candy, she writes further.
However, it was not. Instead, she was told that it was the narcotic drug MDMA, often called “molly”, and that it was for the orgies, which used to start around then.

“Now the comment from Windsor (the British royal, journ.anm) about needing more girls began to make much more sense. They didn’t talk about a mixed relationship between boys and girls, like it was an eighth grade disco. They were talking about an orgy!” it says in the book.

According to the actress herself, she left the party when she realized this.

Debated chapter edited in UK and Australia
The story of the British royal is just one of several revelations in her autobiography.
Among other things, she writes in the book that she thinks the artist Adele “hates her”. Among other things, Dagbladet has previously written about it. She believes the reason is that they both lost a lot of weight a few years ago, and that before, when they were both slightly bigger, they were often mistaken for each other.
The biggest uproar has nevertheless been around the chapter on comedian and actor Sacha Baron Cohen. The chapter has been named “Sacha Baron Cohen and other scumbags”, and here Wilson accuses the actor of indecent behavior and describes working with him as “the worst experience of my professional life”.

The chapter was published unedited in the US, but postponed in the UK and her native Australia. It was claimed that this was because the release was to fit in with an already planned press tour Wilson was going on. At the same time, Wilson claimed that Baron Cohen tried to stop the publication of the book. On Instagram, the Hollywood stars wrote that she “would not allow herself to be bullied or be silent with expensive lawyers or PR crisis managers”.
Now the book has also been published in Great Britain and Australia, but then the aforementioned chapter is partially or completely censored, writes The Guardian. The reason is that the law for defamation is different in those countries than in the United States.
