Rebel Wilson was 'dumped by woman in the public eye' before fairytale romance with fiancée

Rebel Wilson has revealed she was "dumped" by a woman who is "in the public eye" before embarking on her fairytale relationship with her now-fiancée Ramona Agruma.

The Pitch Perfect star, 43, admitted her earlier romance helped her to open her heart up to a same-sex relationship and said it "wasn't what I was expecting".

Speaking on the U Up? podcast, Rebel said she wouldn't name the woman she was involved with "out of respect" for their privacy, but described their time together as "very important".

"I met a woman and had, like, feelings for her, which totally came as a blindside. It wasn’t what I was expecting," Rebel recalled.

The mum-of-one admitted she had a "hard" time telling the person she was "attracted to them."

She explained: "I said the words, 'I don't want to offend you, but are you interested in women?'

"I've never had a conversation like that [before] because I was dating dudes and never had to talk about sexuality," she admitted.

Rebel continued: "She was like, 'I have feelings for you as well'."

Rebel said their connection "didn’t end up going anywhere really" and revealed she "got dumped".

However, the actress credited the experience with "opening [her] heart up for a same-sex relationship and said Ramona was "the next woman [she] felt that way about."

Rebel and Ramona got engaged last month in front of Cinderella's castle in Disneyland and are reportedly looking at the theme park to provide a fairytale backdrop to their big day.

Rebel came out in June 2022 at the same time as introducing Ramona as her girlfriend.

She even dropped Disney into their subsequent engagement announcement saying she'd been searching for her prince but found her 'princess'.

A source has since explained that Rebel is a "die-hard Disney lover" and they are really "considering having their dream wedding there".

"It is definitely their happy place and Rebel still feels like she is living a real-life fairytale," the insider told MailOnline.

But the pair will be looking to pay top dollar for a Disney wedding with the most popular vow location at Disney's Magic Kingdom in front of Cinderella Castle is the most expensive venue setting couples back a ballpark $30,000.

And that doesn't include include food, transportation, decorations, photography, or any extras.
