During the pandemic, a mother whose tights she sold on OnlyFans made her £50,000.  

By selling her used patterned tights on the adult content site, Lizzy Groombridge, 27, from Camborne in Cornwall, earns almost double the average UK wage thanks to her 6ft 3in height and long legs.

As the cost of living rises, the mum-of-three shares her story with others who need fast cash.

Her unique product is in high demand – so much so that Lizzy has to make weekly trips to Primark and other supermarkets to get more XL tights for her 39-inch legs.

Lizzy says she doesn’t care what other people think about selling tights for £45 a pair. ‘Their opinions don’t pay my bills,’ she says.

I came up with the idea when people started approaching me on TikTok. 

‘I wear tights in many videos about my height. People messaged me asking where they could purchase them.

Since I am self-reliant, I decided to test the idea.

Her unique venture has even made her a local celebrity, with locals often recognizing her on the street.

On her TikTok account @lizzylonglegs, she has reached over 730,000 followers.

Due to her popularity, Lizzy can now sell around ten pairs of tights in just 14 days.

She hopes that number will rise even higher very soon after having recently undergone breast enhancement surgery.

In a fortnight, she sells around ten items. Although I am open-minded, I have discovered areas of desire I had never considered before.

It cannot be easy to create content while raising three children.

It isn’t easy being a mother and supporting three children. There isn’t anyone to turn to. I enjoy OnlyFans, but it has its challenging moments.

As a human, I become overwhelmed with requests and have days where I have personal hang-ups. In addition to using my platforms to give me more confidence, I also show others that you can go from the bottom up.

In my case, I’m showing others they can achieve their dreams and take risks because they only live once, and it’s worth it.

I only want to provide for my kids, and let’s face it, where else would I have the same opportunity to earn money?

“Now that I have a full-time job, I hope to get in the top percent of TikTok accounts.

‘I’m making a separate page to help other women get started and how to promote [their pages] etc., because I get a lot of people to turn to me asking how I’ve done it and overgrown.

I want to gain more financial control over my life to help others.
