Olivia Attwood reveals the thing that made her break down in tears while filming ‘most shocking series’ of her ITV show Getting Filthy Rich and shares what she really thinks of sex workers

Olivia Attwood has revealed the thing that made her break down in tears while filming the new series of her ITV show Getting Filthy Rich. 

The first series explored how many make a living off posting on OnlyFans, the porn industry, cam girls and the life of sugar babies. 

The following showed women making cash from charging for a girlfriend experience, dominatrix, sex toys, TikTok and being a stripper.

But the TV personality, 33, revealed series three is the ‘most shocking yet’ and forced her to step outside her comfort zone. 

During a Q&A at the premiere on Wednesday evening, Olivia revealed that she ‘didn’t feel comfortable’ and ‘cried’ after filming naked body paint scenes for the show.  

She explained: ‘I despised it. I really hated it. And I was turning around to my team when we were watching because I didn’t feel comfortable. So many things bothered me about it because I’m a control freak. 

An OnlyFans creator painted Olivia as a purple mermaid, and she looked unrecognisable in a short purple wig.  

Olivia added: ‘It’s a sensory thing, and body paint just feels horrendous, and the way I look, I’m a control freak. Everything about it was out of my comfort zone, but it was more important that I did it. 

‘She’s obviously an incredible artist, but when that purple wig went on, I lost my f***ing mind. I was trying to keep my f***ing s*** together. I got in the car and was literally nearly crying. 

‘I’m in a tracksuit and I’m in the back of a Mercedes with cream seats and I’m crying purple paint off on the way home. Four days later I sent a picture to Emily, one of our producers, and I’m still purple. I’ve had eight showers, and I started to panic.’

The six new episodes, available to watch from Sunday, follows Olivia as she delves into the world of high earners on OnlyFans, MILFs and GILFs, and cosplay, where people dress as fictional characters for pleasure.

When asked if her view on adult entertainment has changed since making the show, Olivia responded: ‘Oh, 100%. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t go into this show with a bias and a preconception because society and our own DNA, we build preconceptions of what people are going to be like and the job they do and their value to society. 

‘I didn’t think I had them, but when I interacted with the people that do these jobs and I got to know them, I realised that I did have some and knowing them shattered all of them. Sex work, whether it’s in person or online, people end up in those jobs or they choose to go into the job for so many different reasons. 

‘And I think that society tries to peg one story, and we all get fed that narrative. But no one’s story is the same as anyone else’s.’ 

It comes after Olivia voiced her suspicions over controversial porn star Bonnie Blue, saying she’s unsure what’s been made up for clicks.

The documentary maker admits she is ‘concerned’ by the OnlyFans videos Bonnie is creating.

Bonnie Blue, 25, real name Tia Billinger, is a rising star in the world of adult content and this month claims to have slept with over 1000 men in 12 hours, breaking the world record.

She made a name for herself by bedding ‘hundreds’ of ‘barely legal’ 18-year-olds who she targeted at various university Freshers’ Weeks across the world, publishing the footage on her OnlyFans page.

Speaking online, Bonnie, who says she would risk contracting HIV in the name of her work, also alleges to have slept with fathers and husbands in a bid to make as much cash as possible, with her earnings at a reported £1million per month.

But Olivia doubts the reliability of Bonnie’s content and says she would be hesitant to feature the sex worker in one of her documentaries.

Olivia said: ‘She wasn’t on the scene when we filmed the documentary and obviously the question a lot of people have asked me is whether or not I’m going to interview her and will she be in the show.

‘The answer is she isn’t in the show and to ask whet
her I would ever feature her, and the other girls involved, I would have to look at it in a lot more detail. It’s quite hard online to weed out what is just rage bait and click bait and what’s real.’

The former Love Island star says interviewing Bonnie on her ITV series would also be a question for the broadcaster, who needs to look at who they give a platform to very carefully.

The world of documentary making is no easy feat and Olivia says she is lucky to have the support of her footballer husband Bradley Dack, 31, who encourages all her ventures.

She said: ‘Brad is my secret key to success really. Having a partner that is as behind your goals and dreams as I have is a very rare thing. It’s not easy. 

‘He comes back from whatever he’s got going on in his own life and job and there’s cameras, Harry Potter suits, and he just throws himself in. But he does that because he knows it is my passion and my job, and I’m very grateful.’

Host Luis Elkes quipped: ‘Oh how lovely, I can’t even get a text back,’ to which Olivia jokingly replied: ‘He’s mine f*** off!’

The couple, who juggle separate schedules, are enjoying being able to spend more time together following Bradley’s move from Championship high-flyers Sunderland to League Two’s Gillingham.

Olivia looked out of this world as she arrived on the red carpet at the premiere of her ITV show.

She posed up a storm in a burgundy thigh-high split dress, teamed with knee-high boots.

Love Island’s India Reynolds and Francesca Allen were among the stars supporting Olivia at the premiere.

Promoting the show, she explained: ‘Series three is the most shocking series we have filmed. I love being provocative and shocking people, and this job has been that and always feels like a blessing.’

She added: ‘I have people stopping me about this show more than anything I have ever done. I’m talking series three love Island when it was in the boom, I get stopped more about this show than anything. And it’s almost like I get embarrassed. 

‘I’m in M&S buying my organic chicken and they’re like, “I love that episode last night when that guy was getting butt plugged,” but I’ve blocked that from my memory but thank you so much.’
