Netflix star Julia Haart has revealed she once had sex surrounded by “throngs” of tourists while visiting Rome with a former lover.
The My Unorthodox Life mini-series star shared the startling revelation in her debut memoir, Brazen, which hits bookstores today (April 13).
Julia, 50, revealed in her autobiography that she once got down and dirty in the Italian capital with a former British lover that she only named Lucas.
She claims the pair were visiting Italy for a business trip back in 2014 but they couldn’t resist the urge.
Writing in her memoir, she penned: “Throngs of people surround the [Trevi] Fountain.

“Then I felt his hand reaching under my miniskirt, and before I knew what was happening, he was inside me!
“I had never been so shocked in my life, I tried to be quiet so as not to give us away, it was crazy.”
The co-owner former CEO of Elite World Group went on to say, after reaching a rather scandalous climax “down went the skirt, and we looked at each other, delighted, it had been a mad, crazy thing to do.”

Julia has been open about her sex life in the past, having grown up in the ultra-Orthodox Jewish community of Monsey, New York, where she was oblivious to what an orgasm is.
The businesswoman married her first husband, Yosef Hendler, when she was just 19, having met him just a handful of times without being intimate.
“Neither Yosef nor I knew what an orgasm meant,” she explained.

She went on to write: “I had my very first orgasm when I was in my thirties, and it was with a Rabbit vibrator and had nothing to do with my husband,” adding that their first attempt at sex was a “disaster”.
However, she admits that her poor experiences are not because of Yosef but because they were “doing what our teachers had told us.”

“We both thought we had a duty, and that to do it any other way was to harm our children’s souls and their very lives,” she said.
Julia left her home in Monsey and moved to Manhattan, ditching her Orthodox lifestyle before starting her own shoe collection and becoming the director of La Perla.
She explained that during her time in Monsey, she became depressed and thought of ways to take her own life.
Speaking to the New York Post, she said: “The day came when I couldn’t take it anymore, I couldn’t stay for one more second, you’re trapped in a life that’s not yours, so it was stay and die, or walk out the door.”
