Some of Britain’s top, and most attractive divers, are splashing onto OnlyFans.
Over the weekend, not one, not two, but three Team Great Britain stars–Matty Lee, Daniel Goodfellow and Matthew Dixon–announced they were starting accounts on the subscription-based platform.
While all of them pledge their content won’t be explicit (whomp, whomp), they promise to show more of themselves to the masses.
We’ll take what we can get!
“I have not been hacked, I have not been scammed, see for yourself,” Lee posted on his Instagram story, with a link to his page and winking emoji with its tongue out.
Lee, 25, is charging subscribers $20 per month for content. As of Tuesday, he’s already shared three posts.
“I’m using this space to share more frequent content, I always care way too much about what I post on my insta but here I know it’s a place where you wanna see more of me,” says his OnlyFans bio. “But hold up… remember I’m a Team GB diver not a [porn star]. So everything will be SFW [safe for work] and a place where I can interact with you all.”
Lee, who rose to diving prominence when he won gold at the inaugural 2015 European Games, was Tom Daley‘s partner at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The two won gold in the men’s 10-meter synchronized diving event. It was Daley’s first gold medal, and he soaked up the moment.
“I feel incredibly proud to say I am a gay man and also an Olympic champion,” said Daley afterwards.
Not to be outdone, Goodfellow, who took home bronze at the 2016 Rio Games alongside Daley, is pledging his OnlyFans subscribers will get to know him on a “more personal level” and “interact with posts that won’t be seen anywhere else.”
And yes, Goodfellow, 26, included the requisite emojis in his announcement, too.
Goodfellow’s OnlyFans page also says he’s going to participate in “collabs with other divers.” We’re not sure whether that means he’s going to partner with his Team GB brethren, but we can only hope.
They work well together in the pool, so it’s only logical they would also jive in front of the camera, right?
Dixon, the youngest of the trio (he’s 23), won silver at the 2018 European Championships with his partner, Noah Williams, who started his own OnlyFans page earlier this year.
They are quite the pair!
The trend of Team GB hotties joining OnlyFans started two years ago, when Jack Laugher joined the platform in late 2021. The 2016 Rio gold medalist (he won the men’s synchronized three-meter springboard event with partner Chris Mears) often posts selfies in his underwear and speedos.
Predictably, it didn’t take long for Laugher to amass a large following, as PinkNews points out.
Team GB’s jump to OnlyFans indicates the mainstream viability of the platform. The service’s popularity surged during the pandemic, spiking from 7.5 million users in November 2019 to 85 million users by December 2020.
While OnlyFans is known for hosting X-rated content, there are a slew of well-known celebrities who use the service, too. Earlier this year, out Olympic icon Matthew Mitcham started his own page, which he uses to celebrate his body and promote sex-positivity. (Mitcham’s husband, Luke Rutherford, is a top performer on OnlyFans himself.)
“The world isn’t sex-positive as it ought to be, in my opinion,” Mitcham told Outsports. “Celebration of the body. I think it’s a beautiful thing.”
We agree!
There’s a long and proud tradition of famous male athletes showing off their spectacular bods in sexualized commercials and photoshoots. They’ve participated in seductive underwear ads for decades, and went naked for ESPN The Magazine’s Body Issue.
For what it’s worth, out Olympic medalists Gus Kenworthy and Adam Rippon star in some of our favorite shots.
With that history in mind, it makes sense that OnlyFans would serve as the next frontier for male sports stars to show it all…or at least show more. Members of Team GB have taken home plenty of Olympic medals in recent years. Now, it’s time for them to rake in the subscribers.
Bonus points for anybody who convinces Daley to jump in for a quick collab.

In response to the idea that Tom would do collabs I think it’s very unlikely, Toms always just had a lot more sponsorships and media work than any other diver, he’s also under a lot more public scrutiny in whatever he does being both more famous than these guys and a very visible gay dad, I don’t see him doing only fans anyway he’s building a knitting empire. I do think the main point of all these guys joining the site is the clear lack of funds in the sport unlike something like tennis or football or golf where at the elite level there is a lot of money to be made there just isn’t that in diving to the point that three of these men have olympic gold medals and yet still need to subsidise their income

Since these guys are mostly naked most of the time, and they’ve already said they don’t intend to show any more, I don’t see this going well. Maybe they’ll get a few subscribers in the first month, but after that I would expect a pretty significant drop-off.

Good for the for their decision. are you that concerned about subscribers. Methinks YOU want to see more, ingyaom……………I read the first line of the article and stopped reading: so pathetic!
“Some of Britains top and MOST ATTRACTIVE DIVERS, are splashing onto ONLYFANS.
Is “ATTRACTIVE” the operative word. There must be top divers who are rather plain, very average lookers……….will they be able to splash onto ONLYFANS. Why do you always beat the “beauty” issue to death. I hate that so much. You are all so shallow. And yes, I am a hot guy in case you think it’s sour grapes. Don’t make your god damn articles so puerile! Merci, Gracias, Thank You, Grazie, Danke.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I don’t think I’ll ever be able to understand how it could be considered admirable or impressive for people to charge fees just to see what they’re up to or look at new photos of them, especially if they clearly don’t need the extra income. This is the height of narcissism!
MSM
It really is all they can do to make money i fear. Is it narcissistic ? Yes, but there is a long list of narcissists that came before them. Those who exploited their good looks and bodies to make a living had to. Not all, but many.

If people will pay to watch you do things, might as well let them.
MSM
I’d be celebrating my body too, if it looked like that, or any one of these members of the team.
Speaking of teams, are they all gay or just love the attention they receive from us?
flim
No one is gay that I’m aware of, Jack, Dan and Noah all have long term girlfriends and the two mattys have both said they are straight, Tom is obviously gay but he’s not on OF and Mathew Mitcham was on the Australian diving team not the British

I see this simply as a source of income supplementation, because in order to maintain the level of skill they do and continue to participate in competitions all over the world all year long, they don’t have time to work a 9-to-5. As much as I find them all hot, paying $20/month to see images we can see here and elsewhere for free is a hard sell; it would be an agreement to support them simply because they’re in a tough spot. Lots of athletes could use help. But for that kind of money I want to see solos, at the least, and since that won’t be happening I won’t be joining.

Everyone is monetizing everything nowadays, although Queerty comments are still free to read.
I don’t begrude these guys finding a way for their fan base to support them — I doubt they’ll get rich. Also, from what I’ve observed, if there’s anything really juicy, it will leak anyway.
