Wayne Lineker encouraged women to join an agency representing OnlyFans content creators before ending the arrangement without taking payment, his representative said. The 64-year-old entrepreneur, best known for owning the O Beach Ibiza club, focused on recruiting creators for the subscription service, which hosts photos, live streams, and adult content.
A spokesman for Wayne said he approached only women already active on OnlyFans and refused to identify the agency involved. Management firms in the adult sector recruit heavily due to high earning potential, with creator Lottie Moss, 28, half-sister of supermodel Kate Moss, making £30,000 monthly, while top creators earn millions annually.
Wayne fathered three sons and a daughter without publicly naming all their mothers. His older brother Gary Lineker, 65, praised his business acumen, noting that Wayne could always turn a penny into tuppence. The two brothers recently reconciled following a prolonged estrangement.
Gary, a former England striker, left the BBC in 2025 after sharing a video comparing Zionism to a rat image. His podcast business, in which he holds at least a 25 per cent stake, generated £37.9 million in revenue last year. Wayne's representative confirmed that no money was received for his OnlyFans recruitment work and stated the operation has ceased.

Independent Career and Reflection
Roxie Nafousi reflected on her past relationships, including a three-year relationship with artist Damien Hirst that ended in 2015.

So if I could date someone that was successful, that had money, that was famous, then I was, like, 'Oh, maybe that means that I'm good enough.'"

Skinner learned the pavement was torn up to accommodate new tram infrastructure, placing the stars into underground storage while replacement paving was installed. Describing the situation, Skinner said, "I took my son to see my star. But now that they've got the trams, they had to change all the pavements, and it's gone. It's been torn off. It was very disappointing."
