EXCLUSIVE: OnlyFans creator April Opal shared photos revealing how she looked as a child when she was ‘relentlessly bullied’ for her appearance – but she’s now having the last laugh
An OnlyFans model earning up to £30,000 a month from bonkers food requests revealed she was bullied as a child for how she looked.
April Opal says she was a “genuinely ugly kid” – and spoke of her disbelief that she now makes a living from her glamorous appearance.
The Middleborough content creator opened up to her 80,000 TikTok followers about her past.

She also shared the throwback photos with Daily Star and said: “I don’t think I’m ever going to get used to the fact that I’m paid for how I look because I was a genuinely ugly kid.
“I got relentlessly bullied for being an ugly kid
“I will get a photo… like I was a genuinely strange child and as I got older it never really got better
“This [top photo] was me at about 13, 14, and I was overweight and I didn’t do my makeup right and all of that s***.
“I have been really heavily criticised for how I look and I was never anybody's first choice in school, nobody really fancied me.
“Which is totally fair enough because you don’t have to be attracted to everyone.”
April, who turned down a place at Oxford for OnlyFans, added: “But it is so strange now in adulthood, I am actually paid for looking a certain way.
“And I know there is going to be one comment saying ‘you are not paid for how you look it’s for flashing your f***y’… but it is as well, stop lying.
“So yeah it is actually kind of strange, it is like I am constantly waiting for everybody to be like actually 'we are all joking, we don’t like how you look and really we think you are still that weird fat kid'.
“But that hasn’t happened yet so I should probably stop worrying about it.”
One fan commented: “Live for today and not your history. You have become a very strong young lady. And you are doing amazing.”
Another said: “They call it imposter syndrome, we all have it.”
A third simply said: “You’re beautiful.”
April is a former children’s entertainer who combined four jobs over seven days a week to get by.
She also excelled academically in school and was in talks with Cambridge and Oxford to be a stem cell researcher.
But she left education behind for a career as a saucy model and she is now pocketing a staggering amount of money from it.
April said: “The only s*** thing is when you earn what I earn you pay half of that to the government so you make £30,000 but you don't really, you make half.
“Don’t get me wrong though, £15,000 isn’t bad, I can spend a month at a time in places so at the moment my money goes into travel, savings or the tax man.”
She added: “My goal now is to set myself up and have fun while I can and see amazing things.
“But I do want to put money aside, buy properties and rent them out going forward.”
