The former ‘Lipstick Jungle’ beauty – who became famous aged 12 playing a
prostitute in the movie ‘Pretty Baby’ - says her biggest regret in life was
not losing her virginity until she was in her 20s.

She said: “I think I would have lost my virginity earlier than I did at the
age of 22. I had the public and all this pressure, and I wish I had just
gotten it over with in the beginning when it was sort of OK
.”



The twice-married actress – who raises two children with husband Chris
Henchy – also wishes she had been more confident with her body when she was
growing up

She added to America’s Health magazine: “I think I would have been much more
in touch with myself
.

I think I wouldn't have had issues with weight. I carried this protective
20 lbs of weight in college. It was all connected
.”

The 43-year-old star recently admitted she forgets she is not in her 20s
anymore when considering upcoming movie roles.

She said: "For years, I was the youngest person on the set, and it occurred
to me recently that I wasn't 26! I'd read a script and say, 'Oh, that's a
great character, that's something I'd love to do
.'

And they'd say, 'Um, no, we're thinking of you for the mother.' And then I'd
say, 'Oh, of course! Of course! I knew that
.' "
