The former physics teacher told how she’s putting her lucrative earnings from the X-rated subscription service to good use by supporting loved ones.
Mum-of-one Kirsty, from Coatbridge, Lanarkshire, said: “I have walked away with my head held high.
“I just wanted to match my teacher wages and get a wee bit more.
"In one month I made £60,000. That’s more than I made in a year as a teacher.
“I invested money in my house, paid off debts, took my family on holiday and got my mum a new washing machine. I’m proud.”
We told in December 2022 how Kirsty landed in hot water when bosses discovered her sexy sideline.

But she reckoned she would not get a fair hearing — and was in two minds over whether she would ever return to the classroom.
She said: “The General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS) said I’ve breached my contact by being unprofessional.

But furious Kirsty hit back: “You can hate me if you want.
“I don’t like narrow-minded people who make judgments on folk they don’t truly know.
“I have an everyday woman’s body and don’t mind showing my flaws.
'PARENT'S FAULT'
KIRSTY previously told the Scottish Sun that she blamed the parents of her former pupils after the X-rated content was uncovered.
She said it was their fault for allowing their kids to find the site by not protecting their devices.
Kirsty said: "Some people are being so judgemental but I am on an 18+ site and if the kids get access to the content then that is down to the parents failing to protect their devices.
"Who are others to judge? It's my story to tell. I will do anything to provide for my son.
"How many parents can say they can do that.
“Now people have asked me if I am being stupid but I am not stupid, I have a physics degree and worked hard.
“I could go to my work and not be respected by my bosses - or I can post pictures and make money to provide for my son. To me, that is using my brain.”
“This is about standing up for my story and OnlyFans and promoting feeling good about yourself.
“I’m not looking for the world, just to be able to provide for my son.”
