Kaitlyn Bristowe and Colton Underwood Recall Losing Their Virginity: 'Nobody Told Me It Was Going to Be Terrible' (Exclusive)
Underwood tells PEOPLE his friends and family found out he was a virgin from a preview of his time on season 14 of 'The Bachelorette' NEED TO KNOW Colton Underwood and Kaitlyn Bristowe tell PEOPLE about losing their virginity as they gear up for the series debut of Hulu's virgin dating show Are You My First? on Aug. 18 While Bristowe recalls having "misconceptions" about sex, Underwood reveals he had a "complicated" experience being known as a virgin on TV before coming out as gay Underwood also reveals that his admission about being a virgin aired on The Bachelorette before he could tell his friends or family himself They say you never forget your first! Ahead of the series premiere of Are You My First?, Hulu's new dating series featuring a cast of all virgins, hosts Colton Underwood and Kaitlyn Bristowe are thinking back to when they were in the same position. Bristowe, 40, tells PEOPLE that she had an entirely different idea of sex before she lost her virginity, so she wanted to help contestants on the show set realistic expectations. 'My misconception was that it was going to be romantic and beautiful and we were going to cry and have a cigarette after — I don't know,' she laughs. 'I just saw what I saw in the movies. Then I was like, 'Oh my God, that was terrible.' And we need to talk about this more about people's first times. Maddie on our show said, 'Penises are scary.' And I'm like, 'I agree. It's scary.' So I feel like that was a misconception. Nobody told me it was going to be terrible.' Underwood, 33, was known for being a virgin during his time on Becca Kufrin's season of The Bachelorette, and his subsequent run as the season 23 Bachelor. At that time, he had not yet come out as a gay man, which he says made that part of his life 'very, very layered and complicated.' 'I think there was a lot of shame, and just for me, just this guilt that you have, especially when you're closeted and really struggling with your sexuality,' he shares. 'And I think that is also why I love a show like [Are You My First?] where it's sort of giving them the permission to be patient with themselves and with one another and allowing them that space.' He also reveals that he hadn't told anyone that he was a virgin before he said it on TV, and the news ended up getting out before he could share it himself. 'I don't know if I've ever publicly shared this, but the first time, when I went on The Bachelorette, I had this whole plan,' he explains. 'We had a launch party for the show at my dad's house, and I was like, 'Okay, at some point before episode six, I have to tell them I'm a virgin,' because I remembered I told Becca.' 'We're all gathered there and they play a supertease at the beginning of the season that talks about me being a virgin,' he recalls. 'And that's how my family and my friends found out I was a virgin, is because it was on the super tease.' While it was awkward in the moment, Underwood admits that he was relieved to know he no longer had to anticipate how he was going to tell everyone. 'Honestly, it was a better way for me just to rip the band-aid off instead of having so many conversations with my family and friends,' he adds. Bristowe notes that Underwood being a virgin became a 'highlight reel' on The Bachelor franchise, which added stress that the contestants on Are You My First? didn't have to deal with. 'I think what helped this group of humans was the fact that they didn't have to admit anything,' she says. 'They already knew they were going in as virgins and surrounded by other people who shared that same title or value as them. And so it kind of took away that intimidating factor of like, 'Oh my gosh, am I going to have to tell them? When do I tell them?'' 'Nobody had to hide behind that or be shameful of it,' she continues. 'They all kind of bonded over it.' Underwood agrees, reflecting on the reactions he would get when he used to tell people he was dating that he hadn't had sex with anyone before. 'I've sat there in front of girls when I had to say, 'Hey, I'm a virgin,'' he says. 'You could just sort of see them thinking through like, 'Okay, this changes the dynamic. There's a lot of pressure in this. It's a responsibility that I'm going to hold being his first. Is he ready? Is he not?' So to have that, what Kaitlyn was saying, to have that shared thing in common is really powerful and just helps with confidence.'

COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess. The Rehearsal Creator: Nathan FielderCast: Nathan FielderGenre: ComedyRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 2 In this off-beat, wholly-inventive comedy docu-series, Nathan Fielder helps everyday people rehearse for big life moments through elaborately staged roleplaying scenarios. It's an uproarious premise that's perfectly executed, whether Nathan is helping folks simulate various parenting scenarios or staging a birthday party. Season 2 of Nathan Fielder's absurdist, cringey, ambitious comedy takes new heights (quite literally). In the first episode alone, he sets his sights on solving aviation safety, an issue that many Americans share concerns about. Watch on max The Pitt Creator: R. Scott GemmillCast: Noah Wyle, Tracy Ifeachor, Patrick BallGenre: Drama, MedicalRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 1 Were you a fan of the OG medical drama, ER? Controversies with the Chrichton estate notwithstanding, The Pitt is just the fix for fans of television's beloved 15-season medical drama. While plenty of medical dramas have come and gone in the past few decades, what makes The Pitt so special is that the season takes place over the course of one 24-hour shift in a hospital in Pittsburgh. Featuring Noah Wyle at the helm of a winning ensemble cast, the show is both gripping and realistic. Watch on max Last Week Tonight With John Oliver Creator: John OliverCast: John OliverGenre: Comedy, Talk ShowRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 12 Need to cut your news with a hefty side of humor just to get through the headlines? You're not alone, and John Oliver is here for you. Now in its 12th season, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver is the rare late night take show that can get serious (and sobering) fast. That's even as the satirical jokes come rapid fire, as well-researched as they are likely to leave you crying from laughter. Most in debt to the work of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and Trevor Noah, Last Week Tonight offers tongue-in-cheek recaps of some of the latest current events, along with deep dives into particularly t h**nytopics, with everything ranging from Facebook and Bigfoot to tipping practices, ICE detention facilities, and, yes, of course, Donald J. Trump. As Colbert's uncermenoious cancellation shows, it's a dangerous time for late night comics and talk shows. That just makes the presence of voices like John Oliver all the more important. Watch on max The White Lotus Creator: Mike WhiteCast: Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton GogginsGenre: Drama, Dark ComedyRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 3 Season 3 of The White Lotus just launched. Aside from changing up Cristobal Tapia de Veer's banger of a theme song, the third season seems to offer everything the previous seasons did. An exotic locale? Welcome to Thailand. Affluent hotel guests with a variety of neuroses and secrets? Just wait until you meet the Ratliff family. So far, the third season is darker and more deliberately paced than its predecessors. Knowing Mike White's penchant for interesting twists and turns, things are only going to get wilder. Watch on max The Last of Us Creator: Craig Mazin, Neil DruckmannCast: Pedro Pascal, Bella Ramsey, Nico ParkerGenre: Drama, ThrillerRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 1 Adapted from one of the most acclaimed video games of the past century, The Last of Us is a thrilling drama about a zombie outbreak in 2003 spawned from a parasitic fungus. While Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal raised some fans' eyebrows on their initial casting as Ellie and Joel, once the pilot dropped, all doubts were definitively cast away. Across the first season's nine episodes, The Last of Us showcases the kind of prestige writing, acting, and directing that HBO has become synonymous with since its original programming launch–and Season Two just dropped. Watch on max Succession Creator: Jesse ArmstrongCast: Hiam Abbass, Nicholas Braun, Brian CoxGenre: Drama, Dark ComedyRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 4 In Jesse Armstrong's Succession, the familial drama to come up with a succession plan for a media mogul's empire becomes practically Shakespearean. Thanks to sharp writing and a pitch-perfect cast — including stand-out performances from Jeremy Strong, Kiernan Culkin, and Sarah Snook — this is a series that grabs you and doesn't let go. Even when you don't quite understand the inner machinations, corporate lingo, and double-crossing, Succession is still a thrilling watch. And with a fitting finale in the books, this is one show you won't regret starting if you missed the boat when it was airing. Watch on max Euphoria Creator: Sam LevinsonCast: Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Angus CloudGenre: DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 2 Euphoria is one of HBOMax's most talked about series, and for good reason. It's totally enthralling, sketching the lives of its teenage characters in stylish, raw detail. At the same time, it's got some of the most inventive camera work and editing in a television series to date — as if Requiem for a Dream was an A24 film. All of this works even better thanks to a completely game ensemble of actors. With young heavy-hitters like Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, and Hunter Schafer breaking out into major films since the series's debut in 2019, it's no secret that the show's cast is one of its major strengths. Watch on max The Sopranos Creator: David ChaseCast: James Gandolfini, Lorraine Bracco, Edie FalcoGenre: Crime, DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 6 HBO's history when it comes to original programming fits neatly into two eras: before The Sopranos and after The Sopranos. Debuting in 1999 and running for six seasons, watching patriarch Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) juggle family issues alongside the problems of his mob family was the kind of must-see television and fodder for watercooler talk that would have set Twitter/X ablaze were the platform around when the show was running. To put it bluntly: if you haven't watched it yet, what are you waiting for? Watch on max The Wire Creator: David SimonCast: Dominic West, John Doman, Idris ElbaGenre: Crime, DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 5 A traditional writing adage in Hollywood is to 'write what you know,' and The Wire proves just how potent that advice can be. Created by David Simon, a former police reporter, this crime drama is detailed, methodical, and engrossing. Set in Baltimore and exploring everything from narcotics to the education system and the media, each season is anchored by a strong ensemble cast and impressive writing. HBOMax has a lot of shows that land on top ten lists of the best series of all time, and The Wire frequently breaks into those lists. Watch on max The Yogurt Shop Murders Creator: Margaret BrownCast: Beverly Lowry, Claire Huie, John JonesGenre: Documentary, CrimeRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 1 On an early December day in 1991, four girls were murdered at a I Can't Believe It's Yogurt shop in Austin, TX. That murder is at the heart of this true crime docuseries, which chronicles the event and its impact on the victims' family members and the surrounding community in gripping detail. Director Margaret Brown focuses on the human impact of this crime every step of the way, showcasing how the event has shaped the lives of those affected by the murder more than thirty years after the fact. It's every bit as gripping and emotionally raw as some of the best true crime series, making it a must-watch for fans of the genre. Watch on max True Blood Creator: Alan BallCast: Anna Paquin, Stephen Moyer, Alexander SkarsgårdGenre: Drama, Fantasy, HorrorRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 7 Are you a fan of fantasy and melodrama? If so, this pulpy vampire drama is likely right up your alley. An acquired taste (pun intended), True Blood tells the story of Sookie Stackhouse, a waitress in small-town Louisianna who falls for a 170-year old vampire. Based on the novels by Charlaine Harris, True Blood is a drama with tons of sex, blood, and violence — the things that HBO has become synonymous with over the years. At the same time, its combination of comedy, horror, drama, romance, and action is a genre mashup capable of winning over almost anyone. Watch on max Game of Thrones Creator: David Benioff, D. B. WeissCast: Kit Harington, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Sophie TurnerGenre: Action, Adventure, FantasyRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 8 Game of Thrones is one of the biggest cultural phenomena in television. Don't believe us? Just consider the fact that baby names like 'Arya' rose in popularity by almost 90% in the wake of HBO's high fantasy action epic. Full of twists, surprising violence, and plenty of double-crossing, Game of Thrones combines dragons and armies with geopolitics to create one of the deepest, most impressive television shows ever created. With such an ardent fan base, even in the face of a divisive series finale, you knew it was going to make the cut. Watch on max House of the Dragon Creator: Ryan Condal, George R. R. MartinCast: Paddy Considine, Matt Smith, Emma D'ArcyGenre: Action, Adventure, FantasyRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 2 A prequel to the events of Game of Thrones focused on the conquests of the dragon-riding Targareyn clan, House of the Dragon had big shoes to fill as the first spin-off of GoT. We're happy to report that it fills those shoes quite nicely, thanks to a game cast including Milly Alcock, Olivia Cooke, and an especially exciting Matt Smith. Filled with more secrets, political intrigue, and, of course, dragon, this is one show we can't wait to come back. Too bad it looks like we'll have to wait until 2026 for the next season. Watch on max Big Little Lies Creator: David E. KelleyCast: Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Shailene WoodleyGenre: Drama, MysteryRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 2 Based on the novel by Liane Moriarty, this drama set in Monterey, California combines the high stakes of motherhood with murder and mischief for a winning combination. If you want any more proof that television has just as much prestige as film these days, look no further than the absolutely stacked cast of Big Little Lies. Across its two seasons, viewers get to witness the talents of Nicole Kidman, Laura Dern, Meryl Streep, Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley, and Zoe Kravitz as they dig in to some seriously juicy material. Watch on max Hacks Creator: Lucia Aniello, Paul W. Downs, Jen StatskyCast: Jean Smart, Hannah Einbinder, Carl Clemons-HopkinsGenre: Comedy, DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 3 In this comedy about the inner workings of jokes and comedy, Jean Smart plays Vegas comic Deborah Vance, who must reinvent her image with some help form an on-the-outs comedy writer played by Hannah Einbinder. It's been a tight race for television comedies when it comes to the Emmy awards, and 2024 was the year that Hacks finally pulled ahead of other greats like The Bear and Abbott Elementary. With Season 3 as a recent high for the series, this well-deserved win makes us even more psyched for Season 4 to launch. Watch on max Silicon Valley Creator: Mike Judge, John Altschuler, Dave KrinskyCast: Thomas Middleditch, T.J. Miller, Josh BrenerGenre: ComedyRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 6 If you need a palate cleanser from a news cycle full of stories about the dangers of TikTok and power of Meta, look no further than Silicon Valley. This hilarious comedy follows the misadventures of some brilliant but bumbling computer programmers as they build their business from the ground up and get swept into the hustle and bustle of the San Francisco tech world. At its heart, Silicon Valley is like Office Space crossed with The Social Network. Remember when start-ups could be cool and fun? Watch on max Veep Creator: Armando IannucciCast: Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Anna Chlumsky, Tony HaleGenre: Satire, Comedy, PoliticalRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 7 In Veep, Julia Louis-Dreyfus plays Selina Meyer, a senator who becomes the vice president (and later, president) over the course of the show's seven seasons. The show, like many other HBO comedies, has great acting — which it pares with a hysterical mixture of political satire and workplace comedy. Tonally similar to other great series like 30 Rock, Arrested Development, and The West Wing, this is the perfect comedy cleanser for what is sure to be a chaotic administration under Trump. We won't judge how many times you rewatch it in the next four years. Watch on max Curb Your Enthusiasm Creator: Larry DavidCast: Larry David, Jeff Garlin, Cheryl HinesGenre: SitcomRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 12 This spiritual successor to the 1990s hit sitcom Seinfeld follows Larry David as a fictionalized version of himself. Like Seinfeld, much of the humor in Curb Your Enthusiasm centers around the absurdity of everyday life and interacting with others. Also, like Seinfeld, the show is as laugh-out-loud funny as it is relatable. From 'spite stores' to arguments about the injustice of abusing the free sample policies at a frozen yogurt shop, Larry David never seems to lack material. And with cameos from Wanda Sykes to Michael J. Fox, he's always got ways to surprise you. Watch on max Insecure Creator: Issa Rae, Larry WilmoreCast: Issa Rae, Yvonne Orji, Jay EllisGenre: Comedy, DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 5 Inspired, in part, by Issa Rae's webseries Awkward Black Girl, Insecure delves into the awkward and often hilarious lives of modern Black women. From career ups and downs to dating ups and downs, Rae's story of two friends in their late 20s navigating life is realistic while still being really funny. Whether episodes of Insecure are detailing the trials and tribulations of dating apps or mining the drama from pool parties and Coachella, it always stays true to its (and Issa Rae's) singular voice. Don't sleep on its five seasons. Watch on max Common Side Effects Creator: Joseph Bennett, Steve HelyCast: Dave King, Emily Pendergast, Mike Judge, Martha KellyGenre: Adult Animation, ComedyRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 1 Every so often, a new series hits the world of adult animated series that shows just how much potential for innovation the genre still has. Common Side Effects is one such show. Featuring heady thematic ideas and a truly unique animation style, this show from Joseph Bennett and Steve Healy follows two friends, Marshall and Frances, who discover a mushroom with healing medicinal properties. Part comedy, part paranoid thriller, Common Side Effects is ambitious, messy, and bizarre. In a word? It's addictive. Watch on max Industry Creator: Mickey Down, Konrad KayCast: Marisa Abela, Myha'la Herrold, Harry LawteyGenre: DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 3 Leave it to HBO Max to find multiple ways to capitalize on the high-stakes world of business, industry-specific jargon and all. In Industry, a variety of young graduates compete for permanent roles at a prestigious London investment firm. It's a lot like Succession meets Euphoria, with plenty of pulp to complement the forex trading. Each season, the show gets more and more cutthroat, with its third season providing some of the most ruthless material yet for a more-than-game ensemble of actors. If you love surprising dramas (where some of the dialogue will likely go over your head), look no further than Industry. Watch on max The Gilded Age Creator: Julian FellowesCast: Carrie Coon, Christine Baranski, Cynthia NixonGenre: History, DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 3 Now in its third season, The Gilded Age is in many ways an HBO-ized version of Downton Abbey. Set in the late 1800s, the series follows a variety of upper and lower-class characters as they navigate the social and economic clashes of new and old money. Tonally, it's a bit more tongue-in-cheek than Downton, and each season offers more and more material for its dynamic ensemble to sink its teeth into. Highlights include performances from Carrie Coon as a woman trying to use her money to break into a new social echelon as well as Christine Baranski as an old-money matriarch. The writers do a great job of plumbing the historical period for a host of issues (both small and large), making it all the more enjoyable whether you tune in for soap or substance. Watch on max The Righteous Gemstones Creator: Danny McBrideCast: Danny McBride,Adam DeVine, Edi PattersonGenre: Dark Comedy, CrimeRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 3 In this uproarious, irreverent, and totally binge-able dark comedy from Danny McBride, you're never quite sure what you're going to get. Following the exploits of a family of wealthy televangelists, The Righteous Gemstones takes all sorts of twists and turns as it explores the ostentatiously wealthy lives of Dr. Eli Gemstone (John Goodman) and his three children — Jesse, Judy, and Kelvin. Even though this is a show you'll laugh out loud watching, it still packs plenty of drama. Bursting with conflict, blackmail, and old secrets, The Righteous Gemstones is a sterling example of the kinds of risks HBO often takes with its programming — and just how often the streamer reaps the rewards of those risks. Watch on max The Sex Lives of College Girls Creator: Mindy Kaling, Justin NobleCast: Pauline Chalamet, Amrit Kaur, Reneé RappGenre: Comedy, Teen DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 3 Similar in formula to HBO's other hit series, Lena Dunham's Girls, The Sex Lives of College Girls is a tale of female friendship while navigating the ups and downs of collegiate life. Created by Mindy Kaling, the series is set in Vermont and follows four incoming freshman: Kimberly, Bela, Leighton, and Whitney. Featuring strong performances from Reneé Rapp and Alyah Chanelle Scott, the series is just a much a send-up of the pressures young women face as it is a comedy about finding your place in college. For fans of shows like Girls and New Girl, it's a must-watch. Watch on max Somebody Somewhere Creator: Hannah Bos, Paul ThureenCast: Bridget Everett, Jeff Hiller, Mary Catherine GarrisonGenre: Drama, ComedyRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 3 Somebody Somewhere trades the traditional HBO playbook of sex and violence for a different playbook: subtlety and veracity. Set in Kansas, the series follows Sam (Bridget Everett) as she navigates the death of her sister and her return to the small town she grew up in. Devastatingly gentle even as it fines the humor in navigating small-town life, Somebody Somewhere is a real winning character study with tons of heart. Its performance and writing are pitch-perfect. Watch on max Watchmen Creator: Damon LindelofCast: Regina King, Don Johnson, Tim Blake NelsonGenre: Drama, SuperheroRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 1 Not to be confused with the divisive Zack Snyder film of the same name, HBO's original drama series Watchmen stars Regina King in an impressively layered take on Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's acclaimed graphic novel. Set in Tulsa, Oklahoma, this alternate take on history deals with deep-seated issues of white supremacy and what it means to be American—even as it offers superhero action sequences, too. Dark, dystopian, and with plenty of relevance in our current political climate, Damon Lindelof's impressive 'remix' of the original Watchmen formula is as audacious as it is impressive. With only one season to binge (although we'd love a continuation after that cliffhanger!). this is the kind of show you can watch in a weekend and think about for months after. Watch on max Barry Creator: Alec Berg, Bill HaderCast: Bill Hader, Stephen Root, Sarah GoldbergGenre: Dark Comedy, Crime DramaRating: TV-MANumber of Seasons: 4 Barry is to Bill Hader what Breaking Bad was to Bryan Cranston. Both crime dramas are deep dives into character, made all the more successful thanks to their stars playing against type in a way that further deepens our collective understanding of the show's protagonists. In Barry, Hader plays an assassin who signs up for an acting class in Los Angeles as a way to get closer to a mark—only to find that acting might be his true passion. The series takes plenty of turns along the way, but it's its sharp writing and equally-sharp acting that makes it such a thrill to watch. Aside from Hader, Henry Winkler gives a fun turn as endearingly smarmy acting teacher Gene Cousineau.
