Asked what his parents thought about him potentially having sex on national TV,
'It's not something I probably would have gone and said, like, 'look, listen, what's going to happen?'
'Yes, it's something that we've been open with our whole lives, it doesn't mean I'm going in there like, 'I'm going to do that' whatever happens, happens.
'They're going to be supportive no matter what.'

'I don't keep anything back, they know everything about me and I feel they're going to be brought up to not be judgemental.

'So many girls and women and ladies are just having that choice for themselves and I think it's really empowering. 'It's such a normal thing now, I think back in the day, there was a lot more stigma around it but I think it's becoming such a global thing now. 'There are so many people worldwide who are on the platform and there is a reason for that. 'I think it's good that no one feels that they can't be on there and that they're judged. 'I definitely like where it's going because no one should have the right to judge others, there shouldn't really be a stigma around it because not everyone is doing the same thing on there - it's each to their own.' Despite not everyone being accepting of this career choice, Marnie is raking in the cash and will be introducing a new OnlyFans YouTube channel in a bid to reach more fans. 'I've enjoyed it because I feel like it's given me a lot of freedom, a lot of confidence, I feel like I get to connect with people on a deeper level,' she shared.
