A 22-year-old woman from Middlesbrough has spoken out about her experience with OnlyFans, claiming that adult content is 'destroying marriages' and 'weakening the minds of men'. Charlotte Divine joined the platform at 18 and developed a cocaine addiction within months, using the money from selling explicit content to fuel her habit.
Charlotte, who earned up to £10,000 per month, said she felt 'sick' about her work after a suppressed memory of childhood trauma resurfaced. She shut down her page and social media channels, and credits her faith with helping her overcome addiction and heal.
'Adult sites are weakening the minds of men to the point where they are slaves to their devices, to these videos and to these online models,' Charlotte said. 'It's pure evil, disgusting and destroying marriages.' She also criticised the normalisation of online sex work, saying society 'didn't even bat an eyelid' when she told people what she did.
Charlotte's addiction began after moving to Australia, where she was introduced to drugs including cocaine, ketamine, MDMA and LSD. She said cocaine gave her a 'sense of pure clarity and calmness' that made it easier to tolerate her job, which she hated. The drug also helped her lose weight, which she saw as positive at the time due to body image struggles.
Now 155 days sober, Charlotte spends her time speaking about her experiences online, reading the Bible and praying. She has no current income and relies on savings. Despite her family's initial concerns, they supported her throughout her career in the adult industry.
