A model who gave up her job at M&S now earns £120,000 a year selling x-rated pictures and videos of herself.

Beth Spiby, 24, worked at M&S in the Trafford Centre, Manchester but quit after being introduced to OnlyFans - a platform where users can sign up, create an account and allow followers to subscribe for a monthly fee to see racy pics and clips.

The former cashier, who also used to work at KFC and as a shot girl in Magaluf, set up her page in December 2016 and quickly grew her following to 1,000 in a week, Manchester Evening News reports.

Beth, who is originally from Audenshaw, Tameside now makes between £10,000 and £15,000 a month via the site, which has over 13 million subscribers.

"I got the idea because my friend introduced me to it," she said.

"As soon as she explained the job role it felt like second nature to me because I had previously done two seasons in Magaluf as a shot girl.

"Part of the job role was flashing my boobs as it sold more shots!

"So I was practically getting my boobs out for 1 Euro a time, so it felt like I had been preparing for the job without even realising it."

Beth, who now lives in Australia with her girlfriend, also takes requests, which subscribers can tip for, including personalised videos.

The model says she has made so much money on the site she has decided to travel the world, which is how she ended up in Australia.

Asked about her decision to sign up the site, Beth said: "I’m so glad I did.

"It’s given me so much time, freedom and financial abundance to live freely and travel the world.

"It comes with critics and very judgmental eyes but I prepared myself for that before I started it, so personally for me there are no downsides to the job."

Beth previously had a taste of 'fame' when she appeared in the three-part documentary about KFC - Billion Dollar Chicken Shop - in 2015 and last year she starred in the E4 reality show Shipwrecked.

Beth, who also acts as an agony aunt and runs an advice page anonymousadvicebybeth.com, said: "If I didn’t do this job I wouldn’t live in Australia right now and I would never have met my girlfriend."

"Also, it’s given me so much life experience and independence that I am able to spend my free time so wisely," she added.

"I have written a book, I have a blog and I have an anonymous advice website where people can chat to me if they need a listening ear or some casual advice.

"Without sex work, I would never have had the opportunity to dive into my passion and have the tools to do so."

Beth says her ultimate ambition is to become an author but for now she's enjoying how OnlyFans enables her to 'connect' with people.

"I think I’ll keep the account for another two to three years as I slowly transition into my real dream of being an author," she said.

"But I never really think about the future in sex work, I’m just confident in the fact that however long my life requires me to do this, my fans will be there supporting me until the end."

She added: "I enjoy it so much. It helps me connect with people, be part of an amazing and empowering sex work community and experience strange things and kinks.

"It’s a job full of exploration and I love it. But I love the freedom the job gives me the most."
