A woman has revealed that her boyfriend spent over £8,000 on an ‘OnlyFans addiction’ just four weeks after she gave birth to their baby.
Kelsey, 28, went viral on TikTok after admitting to her followers that her partner became ‘addicted’ to the adult site and even maxed out his credit cards in order to watch porn and speak privately with sex workers.
The US-based healthcare worker grew wary of her other half after he made throwaway comments about the platform, and looked at his phone after he left it in their child’s nursery. What she found left the mum-of-one shocked.

"Looking back, when he said that he would never spend money on OnlyFans and that he thought it was stupid, I should have seen that as a red flag," Kelsey told NeedToKnow.online.
"People will generally tell on themselves like that,” she revealed. “I was up feeding our child one night when he was about four weeks old, and my partner had left his phone in the nursery.
“I found a saved WhatsApp conversation in his files app, along with some pictures. "I guess he’d been talking to this same sex worker and buying her content of many videos for years.

"I woke him up and confronted him immediately and from there, more information came out throughout the day.
“He maxed out his $10,000 high-interest credit card. I saw that he had been making regular payments on it and had paid a big chunk of $4,000 I think in December.
“I’d caught him looking at stuff before on Reddit but when he said he stopped and never did anything on OnlyFans or otherwise, I believed him."

At first, Kelsey was devastated to find out what her partner was doing behind her back, but was determined to help her other half get help.
The pair worked together with a therapist to help him overcome his porn addiction.
She said: "He found a therapist, we put screen time controls on his phone and he shows me his bank statements.

"He’s also trying to find a new job where he won’t have to travel so much because being apart definitely doesn’t help the problem.”
Kelsey told Tyla in an exclusive update: "We’re still trying to work through it. It’s been and continues to be hard.
"I'm not sure what the end result will be," she admitted.
Elsewhere, Kelsey’s followers have thrown their support at the new mum for sharing all about having to deal with her partner’s ‘corn addiction’, which she dubbed on the site in order to avoid being censored.

“So sorry for the pain you’re feeling right now," commented one user.
Even sex workers added their thoughts into the mix: “I gotchu girly. I don’t offer custom content," wrote one model.
“Unfortunately I’m one of those girls and if I would’ve known I would’ve given the money right back," wrote someone else.
“I feel so bad when I see stuff like this as a custom content creator," added another model.
