OnlyFans creator Lucy Banks reveals police reports

Publish date: 2024-06-08

Lucy Banks has been reported to the police several times, had a brick thrown into her house and endured hateful abuse from countless people.

The West Australian mum-of-two has even had to legally change her name and file multiple restraining orders – and not because she has a chequered past as a violent criminal.

In fact, she’s never committed a crime in her life, and lives an entirely harmless existence in Perth with her two sons.

Certain members of the public however, have taken huge issue with her work as an OnlyFans content creator, falsely accusing her of exposing her children to sex work.

The 32-year-old has for three years been financially independent because of her successful business, which has allowed her to pay for private education, a house, car, and an investment property.

But despite her incredible success, some individuals have continued going out of their way trying to prove she is in some way putting her children in danger.

A police officer recently informed her she had been reported to both Child Protection Services and the police on five occasions each.

“I was really upset. That was really distressing for me. I’m an exceptional mother and everything I do is to make sure my kids are safe and secure,” Ms Banks told news.com.au.

The officer assured her she was not on their radar for any reason, and all reports had been dismissed given none were backed by evidence.

Ms Banks has also dealt with the scary reality of trolls knowing where she lived, having one day discovered a brick in her yard with the word sl*t engraved into it.

“That took it to a new level and we moved a few weeks after that,” she said.

“People can hate me as much as they want, that’s not a problem. But it was obviously somebody who doesn’t like me who knows where I live.”

She adopted Lucy Banks as a working name, and has now completely changed her legal name to make it harder for people to threaten hers and her children’s safety.

“People have no idea the amount of effort I go to to make sure we’re safe,” she said.

Despite relentless efforts of trolls to damage Ms Banks’ livelihood, she had remained committed to her business and accepted they were an unavoidable part of the job.

“This job means I can put my kids through private schools all by myself, I’ve bought a home for us and I’ve bought a stable car,” she said, adding that, “I didn’t grow up with stability, but now I can provide that for my kids.

“If the cost of that is some people not liking me, then that’s OK.”

Being able to create content from any location at any time meant Ms Banks enjoyed luxuries many other parents didn’t – she never missed an after-school pick up or sport, and could take her kids on overseas holidays for extended periods whenever they liked.

“People that do OnlyFans are not attention seekers or money hungry, a lot of us are just wanting the best for our families like everyone else,” she said.

“We just have this stigma that can cross over into real life and be quite scary.”
