Husband referred to old girlfriend when asked about most daring sex

So DH and I have been together nearly 30 years. We are now nearly in our fifties.
Normal relationship in that it has ups and downs, but generally good and supportive.
We have a good sex life, nothing too wild but not prudish either.
Going to bed last night I was watching a video on my phone and it was celebrities being asked their most daring sex experiences. I didn't ask him or involve him. He was just getting ready for bed in the room. He asked, what's yours? Whilst I was thinking about it he said that his was with an old girlfriend and mentioned the details.
Then he said, my second would be with another and then told me the details of that too. Bearing in mind these were nearly 30 years ago I'm surprised he remembered so much detail and so quickly. It felt so disrespectful to me. Both of them were teenage stuff and not very exciting. I got really upset and turned over and went to sleep. Woke up and he had gone to work but I'm still really stinging from this. It's not like him at all to talk like this. He has been working out a lot recently and has lost weight and is feeling quite good about himself. I've been very supportive of this. AIBU?

It wouldn't bother me, however DH and I are very open about our previous sexual relationships. However not everybody is that open, so allow yourself to feel upset but don't linger on it. Take a moment, and then let it go. He's with you, you've had a long relationship, so it's clear your sex life is satisfactory enough.
