Nicola McLean says her son would leave home if she joined OnlyFans amid bullying fears

Nicola McLean has revealed her son Rocky is "strongly" against her joining OnlyFans and has even threatened to leave home if she was to join.

Former glamour model Nicola, 40, posed for Page 3 and lads mags in the past, but has insisted she won't join the platform over fears her sons would be targeted by bullies.

Nicola is mum to 16-year-old Rocky and Striker, 12, who she shares with her footballer husband Tom Williams.

Speaking exclusively to the Mirror , Nicola revealed her eldest son Rocky's strong views, revealing he has threatened to leave home if she were to join the platform.

Nicola said of her son Rocky: "He said to me, 'I would leave home if you did that' – obviously he wouldn't because he's 16 but that's how strongly he feels about it. He's like: 'Absolutely no chance can you be doing that.'

"He will often comment on some of the other celeb mums that do it like: 'Oh my God I just don't know how they can cope'. He's really dead against it."

Mum-of-two Nicola added that even though she doesn't have a profile on the platform, her youngest child Striker was the target of comments from fellow pupils at his school.

She revealed: "My youngest is 12, he wouldn't know what it is but, he's gone into year seven and had people say to him: 'Let me join your mum's OnlyFans.' And I'm like: 'Mate I'm not on OnlyFans can you tell them that I'm not'.

"Can you imagine if I was? The kids are being bullied for it and I'm not even on it!"

Nicola explained her son insisted to the pupils that the former model didn't have an OnlyFans account while Nicola complained to the school.

"He told them pretty quickly, so it didn't end into bullying or anything like that," she said. "And I called the school and went nuts as you can well imagine."

She added: "But imagine if I was on it and their peers could go on and see me?"

While the former glamour model insisted she has "no issue" with women making money from OnlyFans – as her best pal Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace has a profile – she said it "wouldn't work" for her being a mother.

However, Nicola added that she finds it "ludicrous" that Kerry Katona's daughters take photos for her raunchy OnlyFans profile.

In April 41-year-old Kerry, who earns around £600k a month on the platform, revealed she needs help taking her photos and it's often her 13-year-old daughter Heidi behind the camera.

She told Closer magazine: "My children know I do it and Heidi even takes some of the pictures of me for the site.

"I say to [the children] 'What's the difference between me getting papped topless on a beach or going topless on a site I'm in control of?'

"It's changed my life financially and it's made me feel empowered."

But, Nicola doesn't agree as she told the Mirror : "I just find it really peculiar that she's roped her daughters into taking her pictures for her and making it acceptable."

She mused: "Maybe it's because her daughters are daughters, I don't know but imagine me getting my sons to take topless pictures of me, I think it's absolutely ludicrous."

"I know Kerry's daughter's point was, 'You can go on the internet and see it anyway' well you can Google me and see me topless absolutely – but 20 years ago," Nicola added.
