OnlyFans star Hannah Veillet: 'I was a teaching assistant, now I'm making thousands and can help my family'
Hannah Veillet describes her niche as "edgy cowgirl" and is a big hit with farmers.
Most people would run a mile at the idea of getting their kit off online - but for Hannah Veillet it's quite literally paid off.
The 32-year old from Brecon left her job as a teaching assistant at her local primary school in January 2020 and just a few months later decided on a new way to make money that has made many headlines over the last couple of years: OnlyFans.
Since starting in May 2020, mother-of-one Hannah says she is now making "tens of thousands" of pounds every month through posting daily pictures and videos of herself on the adult entertainment platform, where people pay to subscribe to those who post online content.
Speaking to WalesOnline, Hannah said she first decided to start on OnlyFans after the pandemic halted her previous job.
"In February 2020 I started a beauty business in a local salon. Then the pandemic hit and I had to stop doing that and go on universal credit," she explained.
"I like to keep active and I was at home bored - it was hard being in the house not knowing when it was going to end."
Restless and struggling to stay busy, Hannah said she'd heard stories about people making money by posting content on OnlyFans and decided to try her hand at it herself.
"I think I always knew I could make money from my body," she said. "People have approached me for cam work in the past, but I never believed I could. I never wanted to step out of my comfort zone. I didn't think just anyone could do it, but then I saw people doing it who were just normal, everyday people. It doesn't matter who you are, or what body type you have. Maybe it was turning 30 that changed things, but I didn't have the confidence before to do it."
