Skins star turned to adult content career and ‘wouldn’t have survived without it’

Megan Prescott found fame in Skins but since then she has been setting pulses racing on a certain adults-only subscription service.

The brunette beauty got her big break when she and her twin sister Kathryn bagged the parts of Katie and Emily Fitch in the Channel 4 show, keeping viewers gripped with their antics from 2009 to 2010. But while she has kept going with her acting since then, Megan has also been turning up the heat online after roles slowed down a bit.

The star signed up for the adults-only platform amid the coronavirus pandemic to help supplement her income. She said in 2022 that friends encouraged her to give it a go, saying that her role as Katie would help her garner interest on the site.

“If it wasn’t for OnlyFans I wouldn’t have been able to survive the last two years without working seven days a week in menial jobs,” she said. “I started my page in April 2020 when the pandemic hit as I didn’t get furloughed for a while.

“I had zero money and was told by a friend who has worked as a stripper for years that people were guaranteed to subscribe because they had watched me in Skins. I thought I may as well try and it went very well,” she told The Sun.

Megan has also worked as a stripper in the past but said that being on OnlyFans is “not as emotionally draining” as that was because people are more polite and you don’t need to quibble about prices. She added that the work doesn’t have to be all at night but can be done when it suits her own schedule.

“They are much kinder than people are in real life,” the star said of the OnlyFans community. Since Skins, Megan has appeared on TV shows including Silent Witness and Holby City and she has also been in several short films.

In one of her latest parts, the actress turned up in BBC soap EastEnders in 2022, playing the character Candy. Off camera, she became a bodybuilder and has taken part in competitions including the UKBFF Bikini Fitness finals.

Megan also appeared in the TV show Body Fixers. On top of her £12-a-month subscription site, the actress tops up her income with personalised video messages.

She offers messages on Cameo from £28. There, she admits she “can’t believe that people are still watching Skins”.

Megan’s sister Kathryn, on the other hand, saw her acting career blossom in the US. She has had regular roles on the likes of Finding Carter and New Amsterdam.
