EXCLUSIVE Ex-page 3 girl Nicola McLean shares her fears about OnlyFans - as she says 'girls get addicted to money and get pushed into extreme behaviour because there's always someone ready to take their place'
Nicola McLean has shared her fears about girls who use OnlyFans, as she revealed young girls are getting 'addicted to money and get pushed into extreme behaviour.' The ex-Page Three girl, 43, said the subscription service encourages women to push their limits because they feel there is always someone ready to take their place. Reflecting on the recent antics of pornographic actress Bonnie Blue, Nicola exclusively told MailOnline that she was worried that teenage girls will also think 'if I don't do this they will queue up for someone else'. Bonnie Blue, whose real name is Tia Emma, is a pornographic content creator who is known for having sex with 'barely legal boys' and telling married men that if their wives won't have enough sex with them, she will instead. Nicola explained that the subscription service and the behaviours promoted by the likes of Bonnie Blue encourages women to go far beyond their limits in order to keep up with other creators and sustain their income. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The glamour model told MailOnline: 'I just worry that, that girls and I know, because I know girls that have gone further than they ever would because they get addicted to the money.' 'What I fear is that with this, with OnlyFans, and it's not just OnlyFans, but I fear that the money is too alluring to girls and men', she added. 'It's all creators. So for the first month, they earn £1,000 let's say, some people it's much, much more. 'And then, people go, Oh, well, I could get someone doing more for less, so I'll move. 'And then they don't earn the money, so then they have to go further and further and you push your own boundaries constantly And you get desensitised to what you're doing constantly. Where when I did what I did, we only needed to do what we were doing and still earn the same money.' Nicola said she thinks is it 'scary' because the younger generation are going to see content creators like Bonnie Blue and push their limits far beyond what they are comfortable with. She told MailOnline: 'I worry that that's what younger generations are gonna see. They're gonna see Bonnie Blue on TikTok saying, basically, if you don't service your man, I will. 'So then people are going to do it when they don't want to do it. That's what I worry about. 'That's what I think is so scary and worrying, where Page Three Girls would never have said that. 'Page Three Girls were girl next door that was like, ''Don't worry, we don't want your man. We do not want your man.'' Our picture is us smiling on a page we were the girl next door. 'That's what we were meant to be. The girls that could live next door to you. Bonnie Blue is basically saying, if your mum isn't having sex with your dad, I will. 'And if your girlfriend's not having sex with you, I will. And it doesn't matter if you're barely legal. Just queue up and I'll sort you out. 'So then I worry that wives think ''oh my God, we have to do s**t we don't want to do'', but I worry that teenage girls will think, ''oh my God, if I don't do it, it'll queue up for Bonnie Blue''. Nicola who shares Rocky, 18, and Striker, 13, with husband Tom Williams, went on to say that if she would relive her life now, she would never be tempted to join the likes of Only Fans or be tempted to go further than pose topless. She began her career by posing topless for lads' mags and Page 3 back in the early 2000s and had her first boob job at 22 years old. Nicola started modelling aged 15, appeared on the front page of the Daily Star in her underwear aged 16 and featured in her first topless shoot aged 18.

I lied my way into getting skinny jabs but it was a BIG mistake - I'm still battling bulimia and even resorted to weighing myself after every glass of water, admits Nicola McLean
Nicola McClean has bravely opened up about her ongoing eating disorder and admitted that she was weighing herself after everything that she consumed at rock bottom. The former glamour model, 43, appeared on the most recent episode of Vanessa Feltz 's YouTube show, With Love, Vanessa, and they got chatting about the topic of weight. Vanessa, 63, asked Nicola: 'Have you ever had an issue with weight?' Nicola said: 'Yeah so I am a recovering anorexic. I'll be honest, I still do suffer with bulimia. 'It's very managed at the minute, but it's one of the ones I can't kick it, if I'm really honest.' Bulimia (bulimia nervosa) is an eating disorder and serious mental health condition. It can affect anyone and treatment may take time, but you can recover from it. According to Beat Eating Disorders, Anorexia is: 'A serious mental illness where a person restricts their food intake, which often causes them to be severely underweight.' She continued: 'The anorexia, I went down to under six stone when I had my second child. I wasn't eating anything, I'd weigh myself even after having water. 'I'd throw everything up that I did consume, even water. I ended up in a really bad way. 'As I say, the bulimia, I think it's an OCD as well, it's like when things get stressful in my life, it's my go to.' Vanessa was keen to know what her view on weight loss jabs are after medicine such as Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro have become a popular tool for people in recent months to shed some pounds. Nicola explained: 'What I think about them is that I think that they are fantastic, obviously you're proof that they are and if they are done well and done correctly, they are so good.' However the star has highlighted how dangerous they can be, after she managed to get hold of some herself on social media. 'But I managed to get one over Instagram and I was doing it. 'For someone obviously, who has a mental health illness with eating disorders, it's absolutely the wrong thing for me to be doing. 'I should never have been given it. I lied to get it. 'But I should never have been given it, so I feel like if it's more readily available on the NHS, we can stop going down the dark route of getting them. 'If I'd have gone to my GP and said I feel like I need them. They would have maybe been able to say Nicola where are you at the minute with your eating disorder?' WHAT IS BULIMIA? Bulimia (bulimia nervosa) is an eating disorder and serious mental health condition. It can affect anyone and treatment may take time, but you can recover from it. The main signs of bulimia are: Purging may include making yourself sick (vomiting), taking laxative or diuretic medicines, avoiding eating for long periods of time, exercising excessively, or a combination of these. The main treatments are: Talking therapies, medicines (such as antidepressants, if you have another mental health condition) and support from a nutrition specialist Source: NHS Vanessa replied: 'They would. If you went to a GP and said "let's measure your BMI, you're not eligible for it I'm afraid." 'And you wouldn't have been able to get it.' Guest Anthea Turner asked: 'Why didn't you? What stopped you going to your doctor?' Nicola replied: 'Because I knew I wouldn't get one. 'I knew I wouldn't get one. 'I wanted one and un fortunately with any active addiction, you will manipulate to get what you want.' Vanessa asked: 'Tell me something, when you were actually taking the jabs, did you feel that the food noise went away?' Nicola confessed: 'Yeah. That is one thing. 'I think even my husband, who has been really great over my eating disorder, he understands the food noise. 'He doesn't have it, but he understands it. 'When I have, I've also had slimming pills from the black market, I've done everything that you could possibly done to lose weight. 'When you get that disconnect and to stop thinking about food... 'It's so nice. It's so nice. 'So to be able to have that for a month was amazing but I was very sick, my husband ended up throwing it in the bin, he was like this is no good for you. 'But the food noise, when you don't have that, it's so freeing.' Nicola last spoke about her eating disorder in 2021. The star spoke honestly about her struggle with anorexia and bulimia, claiming that she feels 'more loved' when she's unwell. As she reflected on where her struggles with the diseases, which she has struggled with since the age of 11, stem from, she explained: 'I feel more loved when I'm ill - it sounds so mucked up! 'But when I was at my smallest, when I was really anorexic, it was the most I'd felt loved. People would say, "Oh my God, are you OK?" 'And where I'm a big character, people don't ever think that I'm not OK. Sometimes that's hard.' Nicola went on to detail how being stuck in lockdown during the global pandemic has been 'horrendous' for her anxiety and has also impacted her eating disorder. She explained that during the first lockdown panic buyers had bought up all the food she would normally have eaten, leaving her family with just chicken nuggets as an option which she couldn't have. The Celebrity Big Brother star added that she felt 'done' because of the lack of food she was used to, and claimed she must have been the 'only person who lost weight' at the time.
