Hollyoaks’ Sarah Jayne Dunn accused of ‘glorifying prostitution’ in heated GMB debate as she defends x-rated OnlyFans

HOLLYOAKS star Sara Jayne Dunn was forced to defend her decision to be on X-rated OnlyFans site during a heated debated on Good Morning Britain today.

The actress, 40, was accused of “glorifying prostitution” as she went head to head with commentator Dominque Samuels on today’s show.

Sarah appeared on the show after losing her job playing Mandy on Hollyoaks after refusing to give up posting on the over 18s platform.

Dominque argued that the OnlyFans is seen through “rose tinted glasses” and it sends the wrong message to young girls.

Slamming Sarah Jayne’s decision, she said: “It is generally known for online pornography and that is why OnlyFans considered removing the X-rated content from its website due to concerns from card processing companies.

“In my opinion I think it promotes a commodification and glorification of quite frankly prostitution and I don’t think it’s healthy for young girls.

“The reality is most  young women go into sex work because of things like mental health, addiction , poverty.

“What we are seeing is a lot of celebrities who are cushioned by their wealth and their fame, promoting this sort of online prostitution as if it’s something to aspire to, when it’s not. The average person does not make thousands a week, the average person makes on average £130 a month from OnlyFans.”

In response Sarah hit back saying: “This isn’t about saying everyone should do OnlyFans, this is about taking control of your own images, your own choices and what you want to do with your body.

“That is not saying go out there and do porn, that is saying go out there and take control of what you do. It’s not promoting the site and saying everyone should do it. Again, it’s a choice, it’s a choice to do what you want to do on there and it’s about control and it’s not forcing anyone to get on it. “

Earlier this week, The Sun revealed that Sarah Jayne's tenure on the popular show had come to an abrupt end after a row over her involvement with OnlyFans.

The beauty had been stripping off online for several weeks after joining the 18+ website, which sees users pay a subscription fee for exclusive saucy snaps.

However, Hollyoaks' bosses warned her over her conduct as the show has a young audience, with producers finally taking the decision to axe Sarah Janye from the job.

Despite her being one of their biggest stars, they feared Sarah's raunchy online content was at odds with the show's young viewers.

They have since been accused of being "hypocrites" by fans, who have claimed that the soap's storylines are racier than her pics.

Sarah has enjoyed six separate stints on Hollyoaks over the years, most recently reprising her role in 2017.
