Former Tory minister Amber Rudd gave the best response when her daughter tweeted about being messaged out of the blue by a man who ghosted her.
Journalist Flora Gill shared a screenshot on Twitter of a message she received from the man she lost her virginity to.
The man in question describes Gill as the “most accomplishment person” he has ever slept with, in reference to her work as a writer with bylines in publications including GQ and Tatler.
Accompanying the screenshot, Gill wrote that the man "ghosted" her 10 years ago while she was on her gap year, after she lost her virginity to him.
Flora Gill, who is the daughter of Amber Rudd and the late journalist A. A. Gill, tweeted saying she needed help composing the "perfect response" to the private message.
Her mum was quick to reply, tweeting: “Your mother would like to speak to him.”
Rudd’s witty reply received an immediately positive response among Twitter users, accumulating more than 700 likes in under an hour.
Gill replied to her mum saying: “Mum – I’m only kidding! I’ve never had sex! I’m an innocent, young, virgin sex writer!”
