A former Harry Potter star has revealed she was 'barred' from a fan event over her OnlyFans account.
Jessie Cave is known for playing the role of Lavender Brown in the Harry Potter franchise.
Back in March, she revealed she would be joining the subscription-only adult content site - although not everything was quite as it sounded...
Instead of explicit content, she would be appealing to an even more niche community; people with hair fetishes.

Her content, she explained, includes hair brushing, hair ASMR and hair styling - more sensual than the typical sexual content you'd expect to find on the site.
The 38-year-old posts daily videos of her long locks, while also taking custom requests, according to her OnlyFans page.
At the time, Cave explained on her Substack that she wanted to give the venture a go for one year - and detailed exactly why she was doing it.

In part, the mom-of-four wrote: "My aim? To get the house safe, cover the arsenic/lead wallpaper, build a new roof etc.
"My aim? To get out of debt. My aim? To empower myself? To prove to those in the past who have misjudged me that I’m not so sweet? To put time into something I never invested in before: self-love."
Although the new gig has come with some unexpected repercussions - including unsolicited d**k pics and vile messages.
Most recently, however, Cave was surprised to learn she'd been 'barred' from a Harry Potter convention over her account.

Once again taking to her Substack, she wrote: "I found out that I didn’t get booked for a Harry Potter convention recently, as I’m now doing OnlyFans.
"They explained it was because it’s a ‘family show and OnlyFans is affiliated with porn.’ This was baffling to me as some actors who do conventions (most actors, actually) have done TV and films in which they’ve done sex scenes and nudity. I’m just playing with my hair!"
She went on to reflect on her affiliation to the popular franchise, writing: "I am not upset about the prospect of no more Harry Potter conventions.

"There’s going to be a new cast now and it’s a different time. Plus, I have done conventions for over 15 years and have enough photos and wizard memorabilia."
In April 2023, Warner Bros confirmed a new Harry Potter series had been greenlit in for HBO.
Filming began in the UK this July, with Dominic McLaughlin as Harry Potter, Arabella Stanton as Hermione Granger and Alastair Stout as Ron Weasley.
The supporting cast includes John Lithgow as Albus Dumbledore, Paapa Essiedu as Severus Snape, Nick Frost as Rubeus Hagrid and Janet McTeer as Minerva McGonagall.
The series is slated for release in 2027, no doubt hoping to encourage a whole new generation of Harry Potter fans.

Cave made her first appearance as Brown in 2009’s Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and reprised the role for both Deathly Hallows films in 2010 and 2011. Her other credits include Black Mirror's 'Hang the DJ' episode and British sitcom Buffering.
Taking to Instagram earlier in September, she marked her six-month OF anniversary, describing it as 'the most empowering thing I’ve done in my life'.
