Prince Harry's 'older women' lover is younger than Megan Markle but she and her family received scrutiny after 'spare' release Prince Harry ‘s “older woman” mystery lover is a mystery no more. The identity of the woman the duke wrote about in his  bombshell memoir  Spare  has been revealed. Harry did not mention his first lover by name  in the book  but went into detail about their time together and that led to some unwanted attention from people who figured out who she was. In  Spare,  Harry shared that he lost his virginity in an “inglorious episode” with an “older woman” who “liked horses, quite a lot, and treated me not unlike a young stallion.” He added: “Quick ride, after which she’d smacked my rump and sent me off to graze.
