‘I used to steal from mum to fuel drug addiction – now I earn £180k a month’

A millionaire OnlyFans model who "hit rock bottom" after university managed to turn her life around.

Eliza Rose Watson abused drugs and alcohol for five years when things went downhill for her after leaving education.

The 33-year-old would steal and take things off people to fund her habit – including her mum, Louise, 54.

She would drink to deal with her feelings but started to realise she would become "aggressive" and "violent" when under the influence.

After her addiction drove her to be hospitalised, a family friend pointed her in the direction of support groups.

Now on the right path, she started getting back into fashion and fitness modelling which she first dabbled in 17 years ago.

She launched an OnlyFans page in December 2019 and her account took off as she earns up to £180,000 a month from her content.

The model is now five years sober and has been able to lend "non-judgemental guidance" to struggling people who reach out to her online.

Eliza, from Bournemouth, Dorset, said: "My drink and drugs addiction wrecked my life. I would steal off people – even my mum. I was aggressive and violent and stopped myself going out with my friends because I knew how I'd be.

"I used to turn up to modelling jobs on drugs, but they didn't really care if I looked OK and turned up. I got back into modelling after getting sober and started updating my Instagram with shots and it took off."

She added: "I started an OnlyFans, and it just became a full-time job after lockdown. I use my platform to tell my story too and I was inundated with messages.

"I had addicts reach out on OnlyFans and I felt a sense of duty to help them out and point them in the direction of a support group. I can give them no judgement."

Eliza was just 23 when her addiction spiralled out of control and she wouldn't even show up for jobs.

Her addiction got so bad she ended up in hospital, then she was 28 when she finally got help.

She revealed: "Now I'm nearly six years sober. I found an old Instagram account that gained quite a lot of followers and I started adding new photos too it as a portfolio for photographers, but it took off.

"Followers suggested an OnlyFans – so I did. I earned a couple of grand in just a few of months which was crazy.

"I started helping people kind of by accident. I had OnlyFans subscribers reach out saying they were struggling.

"I've been able rebuild my relationship with my mum and pay her back for what I took from her. She's come on a few content trips with me."
