Ex-UFC star Paige VanZant creates private website with exclusive content after being bombarded by OnlyFans requests
PAIGE VANZANT has opened her own website with exclusive content for paying fans.
The former UFC fighter is on the cusp of making her Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship debut and is giving followers a new insight into her regime.
Announcing the new website on Instagram, VanZant posed in a bubble bath with an 'Exclusive content' sign covering her body.
She captioned the pic: "I did it..."
The website promises to deliver 'an inside look' into the American's 'training and recovery' as she embarks on a Bare Knuckle career.
VanZant, 26, made headlines during the early weeks of the coronavirus pandemic with a series of risque social media snaps alongside husband Austin Vanderford.
Their naked antics, be it tending to their garden or baking in the kitchen while in the buff, attracted plenty of attention.
And the new website comes after VanZant acknowledged constant pleas to open an OnlyFans page.
She said: "Every time I check my social media, my fans are always asking me for more.
"By launching PaigeFanZant.com with FanTime, it makes it easier for followers to find the exclusive content I’ll be putting out.
"Be sure to subscribe in the lead up to my next fight. I’ll be giving an inside look at my training and recovery that you won’t find anywhere else!"
Despite winning five of her nine UFC fights, she admitted last year to making more money from her social media than in the octagon.
Having received huge attention from her online following, VanZant began accepting donations via online payment software Venmo and found some were made in the expectation of 'explicit content'.
In November, she vowed that she was 'not going to do that stuff'.
Recalling one Q&A session, she said last October: "There were 200 questions and about 20 of them were ‘Hey, why don’t you make an OnlyFans?’.
"Basically, I said, 'I’m not going to make an OnlyFans but if you really want to send me money and you appreciate the things I post on Instagram, you can Venmo me'.

"I was like, 'Go ahead and send me money so you can show me appreciation'. I did have a lot of people Venmo me, which I did not expect to happen.
"Five or ten people sent me money and thought that they would be receiving an explicit picture.

"That was absolutely not what was going to happen. I’m sorry for the confusion and for anybody who sent me money, hoping to get nudes or anything like that.
"The point is, I’m not doing an OnlyFans because I’m not going to do that kind of stuff."
