Harry Potter star Jessie Cave earns more on OnlyFans than in films

British actress Jessie Cave, who played Lavender Brown in the Harry Potter films, revealed an unexpected source of income. Working on OnlyFans has earned her more money than acting for an entire year and has become an important support for her family.

The Times reports this.

39-year-old Cave created an account on the platform after a failed callback audition and a difficult financial period. At the time, she was raising four children with fiancé Alfie Brown and looking for a way to improve their financial situation.

The actress set the subscription price at roughly 6 dollars. At the same time, her content is not explicitly erotic — the main theme of the videos is hair and hair care.

Cave makes ASMR videos in which she combs her hair, braids it, styles it, and fulfills subscribers’ requests. According to The Times, one day she managed to earn about 20 200 dollars.

“I thought I’d earn five thousand, work for a few months, and that would give me time to figure out what to do next. But more than a year and a half has passed, and it has really saved our lives,” the actress said.

Jessie Cave made her Harry Potter franchise debut in 2009. She played Lavender Brown in the last three films of the series, and afterward she worked in theatre and appeared in projects such as Black Mirror and Industry.

According to the actress, the new work helped her feel visible again after a period when she felt “invisible.” At the same time, Cave emphasizes that the main topic of her content remains hair.

The actress first spoke about creating an OnlyFans account in March 2025 year. Then she explained that she decided to try this way of earning money due to financial difficulties and debts.
