'Harry Potter' Actress Jessie Cave Turns to OnlyFans to Tackle Debt

Jessie Cave, best known for her role as Ron Weasley’s girlfriend in the iconic "Harry Potter" franchise, has taken a surprising turn in her career: she's joined OnlyFans, the subscription-based platform often associated with adult content, in an effort to pay off her debts.

In a candid post on her personal Substack, Cave, 37, revealed her motivations for joining the platform. "My aim? To get the house safe, cover the arsenic/lead wallpaper, build a new roof, etc. My aim? To get out of debt." She also described her decision as a way to empower herself and invest in self-love after years of being misjudged.

The actress shared that her content would cater to a specific audience, focusing on what she described as a "slutty Mormon" aesthetic. Most notably, Cave plans to lean into her niche appeal with "hair-centric" videos. “It’s very much geared toward people who have an interest or fetish with hair. I’ve noticed I get quite a bit of interest on Instagram regarding my hair videos, and I thought, ‘F--- it, let’s see where this goes.’”

Despite OnlyFans' reputation for explicit adult material, Cave emphasized that her content would remain far from R-rated. Her bio on the platform includes a playful disclaimer: "Wizard warning: Will not do explicit sexual content. Might be in my underwear. I do NICHE HAIR CONTENT which you may well quite like. How magical!" She even added, "If you want something specific, you can message me, and we’ll see what we can do."

In an Instagram video, Cave elaborated on her plans, promising "the best quality hair sounds," including brushing and other sensory experiences. She humorously admitted she couldn’t afford a microphone yet but hoped the venture would attract enough subscribers to change that.

While some might raise eyebrows at her unconventional side hustle, Cave described the decision as "liberating." Reflecting on her career, she said, "I’ve been a very straight, prim actress for much of my life. This is me embracing something a bit weird, a bit kinky, and totally me. Why not?”

The mother-of-four is clear about her boundaries: no feet or bum content will be featured on her page. Whether this magical hair niche will lead to the "big bucks" she hopes for remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure — Jessie Cave is unapologetically charting her own path.
