The name Bonnie Blue is now synonymous with viral sex stunts in exchange for clout, as she steadily grew to become one of the biggest (and most controversial) content creators on OnlyFans prior to her ban. She has since migrated over to a similar content hosting site to continue her antics.
Initially starting her adult entertainment career by filming herself sleeping with "barely legal" students in Australia, many of whom were virgins and looked incredibly young (Blue says all were asked to provide ID to prove they were at least 18), she has since made an even bigger name for herself after allegedly sleeping with over 1,000 men in 12 hours – something Blue admits was a way to stand out in a saturated market.
Prior to becoming Bonnie Blue, the 26-year-old worked in recruitment for the NHS and was better known as Tia Billinger, or Tia Davidson, after marrying her former partner, Oliver Davidson, who briefly appeared in the recent Channel 4 documentary, 1000 men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story.
The pair have been in the process of divorcing for two years, something Blue admitted in an LBC interview has been tough at times.
When asked about the last time she cried, the adult entertainment star said "a few weeks ago" because of her split. "I think anybody that's going through a divorce or a breakup can relate. It's very difficult, no matter the reason for separation, it's always a difficult thing to go through and process."
She added, "We just grew apart. Nothing went wrong. We just naturally grew in separate directions. I think so many couples do that, but because they've had five, 10 years of memories, they just sort of stay together or think that's the right thing to do. Most couples don't remain super happy."

Blue said that it's easy to stay in a relationship that isn't working, describing it as the "lazy route" but that it's not the road she and Davidson wanted to take.
Here's what we know about Ollie Davidson and his relationship with Bonnie Blue.
Who is Bonnie Blue's husband, Oliver Davidson?
Also known as Ollie, Oliver Davidson met Bonnie Blue when the pair were teenagers. They married very young and shortly relocated to Australia afterwards.
"I met Ollie when I was like 14, 15, got married really young. [We had a] pretty, quite intimate wedding, nothing crazy," Blue explains in the Channel 4 documentary about her rise to notoriety, as a photo of their wedding day flashes up – showing her in what looks like a sequin jumpsuit rather than a traditional bridal gown. "Then we relocated to Australia shortly afterwards."
It was over in Australia that Blue decided she wanted to pursue a career in porn, something that Davidson was seemingly very supportive of.
As for how Davidson felt about her career change, Blue describes him as "beyond supportive" and as the person who gave her "the confidence to do OnlyFans", quickly caveating that he never wanted to "pimp me out" and that he enjoyed the money that came with it.
When describing the 'secret of Blue's success', Davidson praises her ability to "really connect with fans, most people if they do porn seem out of reach". He also commends her for having "completely changed the game" when it comes to adult entertainment.
Why did Bonnie Blue and her husband get a divorce?
During an appearance on the Bad Friends podcast, Blue was asked whether her decision to sleep with 1,000 men is what prompted her divorce. In response, she said, "We were together a long time. We just grew apart. There was no dramatic split-up or anything like that. We just grew apart naturally."
These days, the pair are apparently still friends, with Blue adding, "He works with me. He helps me on the creative side, with videoing."
On another podcast episode which has since been deleted, Blue also said of her former partner, "We're on really good terms. He works for me now. He helps with some behind-the-scenes stuff. It is convenient. It's handy for me. He's going to get some of the money regardless. He might as well work for it. This job benefits everyone in my family, including him."
While speaking to student-focussed outlet, The Tab, earlier this year, Blue explained the divorce kept being "put on the back-burner" because she was "being lazy" about getting the formalities tied up – not because she didn't want it to go ahead.
"It's going to happen, but it's not a 'Oh my God, quickly, I need to to get divorced'. When I get the time to take the calls and sign the paperwork, I will. But it's not a priority," she said.
