Former EastEnders star Joshua Pascoe, known for playing Ben Mitchell, has expressed his happiness with his new career on OnlyFans, where he creates adult content. He told the Daily Star: 'The market for blokes feet is mad...' Pascoe, who was axed from the soap at 16, initially struggled to find acting roles and worked in construction before turning to adult content creation.
From Soap Star to OnlyFans Creator
Pascoe revealed that his friends suggested he try OnlyFans, and within the first month, he was earning significant money. He said: 'After EastEnders, the acting slowly dried up and I went to work on a building site instead. Then my friends suggested I start the adult work and within the first month I was in double figures.' He added that he has discovered new kinks: 'There are so many different kinks and since starting this, I've realised I'm not as vanilla as I thought.'
Life After EastEnders
Pascoe played Ben Mitchell during a period when the character accidentally killed Heather Trott. He was later replaced by Harry Reid and then Max Bowden. Unlike his predecessors, Pascoe has left acting behind. He said: 'I've been out of the acting world for years now. I've just got a normal job, I'm a normal bloke. I've got a nine to five, Monday to Friday. I'm humble – there's nothing flashy or lairy about me, I hope.'
Pascoe joins a list of former soap stars on OnlyFans, including James Sutton, Sarah Jayne Dunn, and Danniella Westbrook. He embraces the platform's reputation for spicy content, saying: 'I get funny looks sometimes but no one's asked me about it at work yet.'
Reflecting on his success, Pascoe said: 'I never ever thought, I never ever imagined that it would take off the way it has done. And I couldn't be happier.'
