A Harry Potter star has revealed that she made more in one year on OnlyFans than in their ‘entire acting career.’

Jessie Cave appeared in the famed film series as Lavender Brown, who was the love interest of Ron Weasley.

The former actress last year joined the social media platform, revealing at the time she would be sharing ‘hair stuff.’

Cave’s content is non-sexual, and came as she decided to give up acting following a series of rejections.

Speaking to The Times, the mum-of-four admitted she was in a ‘point of complete desperation’ after an audition rejection.

‘I couldn’t go and, say, work in a supermarket because I can’t afford the childcare, and also I don’t want people shouting Harry Potter spells at me as I work in Tesco,’ she explained.

She added that she couldn’t afford to retrain as an actor so she decided to pack it in.

The 39-year-old initially joined OnlyFans with the intentions of staying for a few months and making five grand.

The idea was for Cave to buy herself time to figure out what was next.

In a twist of fate, OnlyFans has saved the family, she said.

With a monthly subscription fee of 5.20, and additional income for ‘paid-for-messages,’ Cave pulled in €17,500 in just one day.

She told The Times she had made more in 12 months on OnlyFans than her ‘entire acting career.’

Elsewhere, Cave discussed the ‘stigma’ associated with the site, which has been long-associated with adult content.

Her move to OnlyFans last year resulted in her not being booked for a Harry Potter convention.

Jessie’s OnlyFans bio notes that she is a former Harry Potter actress, writer, doodler and ‘now OnlyFans Long Hair Specialist.’

She said: ‘I do NICHE HAIR CONTENT which you may well quite like… I hope it surprises you at the very least 😉

‘Customs & requests considered. Messaging gets busy… If you tip you will get a reply quicker!’
