OnlyFans star Elle Brooke can punch pro-boxer Ebanie Bridges in the face after winning soccer bet
Elle Brooke, a popular OnlyFans creator, reportedly won a bet with world champion boxer Ebanie Bridges after the former's favorite soccer team beat her gym mate's. It's worth noting that Bridges is known to be a hardcore Leeds United fan, while Brooke has been a staunch supporter of Manchester City.

City beat United 3-1 in the Thursday, December 29 fixture, thus allowing Brooke to take a clean shot at the Australian fighter.
It's worth noting that the pair have trained together in the last couple of months under coach Mark Tibbs, with Brooke emerging victorious in her debut fight against AJ Bunker back in July. Meanwhile, Bridges became a world champion this year under Tibbs' guidance and defended her belt this month against fellow Australian Shannon O'Connell.
Brooke shared photos of her and Bridges in their respective team's jerseys prior to the match. "Me and Ebanie Bridges have a bet on tonight," she wrote alongside, adding, "Winner gets to punch the loser…" And after City cruised to a comfortable victory over Leeds, Brooke quipped, "Looks like Eb is going to be my human punching bag on fight week."

Mother-of-three heeds son's suggestion to join OnlyFans and feels 'hotter than ever' at 54
While Katie Price had been a professional model for years before joining OnlyFans, there are several domestic women who are breaking societal barriers and boldly starting their own OnlyFans business. Twiggy Smith, 54, who hails from Vancouver, Canada credited her newfound sex appeal to the confidence she gained from her divorce.
The mother of three said she spent years trying to be the perfect "domestic goddess" while fulfilling the roles of a wife and mother. However, she was so miserable that she says it aged her by 20 years. However, after parting ways with her ex-husband in 2016, Smith decided to focus on herself and realized that she loved stripping for strangers in raunchy shoots. Her son acknowledged how happy she felt and subsequently suggested joining OnlyFans so she could make money while doing what she loved. Now, Smith thinks of herself as "fit as ****" and hopes to inspire other housewives and mums who may think they have lost their youthful charm.
OnlyFans star walks away from making millions a month to focus on 'self-love'
While a number of domestic homemakers are finding their lost confidence and financial freedom via OnlyFans, some established creators are walking away from the fame and money their content garners. One of them is Malaysian influencer Siew Pui Yi, aka MSPUIYI, who is among the most popular OnlyFans models in the world. It's worth noting that her page boasts millions of followers and she says she makes a whopping "seven figures a month" in subscriptions.
However, Pui Yi has now decided to walk away from the platform in order to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a DJ. "I have always been interested in music and performing on stage, so now it's the time for me to chase my dream," she told Entrepreneur in an interview. "Another reason is I wanted to be near to fans, which it's something that I've regretted being unable to connect with them in real life." The Malaysian bombshell said she had no regrets about the decision, adding, "Finally, I have the courage to be myself."
