Megan Barton Hanson has revealed ITV bosses made her sacrifice her OnlyFans account to appear on Love Island.
The reality star, 29, detailed the harsh reality of working in the Sєx industry as she explained how she has ‘lost countless jobs’ over signing up for the adult content site and revealed she was slut-shamed from the age of just 13.
Speaking with Jamie Laing on his Private Parts Podcast, Megan – who came out as biSєxual in 2019 – said she makes a regular income from posting explicit content on her OnlyFans account, but has faced a lot of judgement for her choice of career.
The Love Island 2018 star explained: ‘I’ve lost countless jobs because I’ve signed up to OnlyFans again. Like when I went on Love Island, I had it before then, before it was like a big thing!
‘And the producers were like, “This is a family show. I think you should get rid of this account” and I was fuming!’
The reality star revealed how ‘head strong’ you have to be in that type of industry because it comes with a lot of backlash and criticism.
Megan continued: ‘As much as you preach to people and your friends and people who love you.
‘If they’re that way inclined, that they think that’s such a seedy bad job to do, then you’re never going to change people’s minds.
