The name Bonnie Blue has been appearing across social media in recent weeks. Tia Billinger, better known as Bonnie Blue, has shot to fame as a 25 year old adult content creator known for recording her encounters with men and sharing them on OnlyFans, and claiming she bedded “barely legal” teens at university freshers events and in student accommodation.
Bonnie Blue made headlines during Nottingham Trent University’s freshers week in September by reportedly having sexual encounters with 158 students. However, Bonnie’s life was once quite different.
Born in Stapleford, Nottinghamshire, and raised in the Derbyshire town of Sandiacre, Bonnie hailed from a middle-class family and once aspired to be a dancer or midwife. Her life took an unconventional turn when she tied the knot with private school graduate Oliver Davidson, who excelled in swimming and rugby, and initially pursued a career in recruitment before their separation in 2022.

After relocating to Australia’s Gold Coast, Bonnie embarked on creating content for OnlyFans, inspired by other creators she had seen on TikTok. Earning up to £5,000 per week with her husband’s support, her marriage to Davidson, however, eventually broke down after 10 years together, reports Nottinghamshire Live.
Bonnie Blue’s controversial persona spiked further following her interview on GK Barry’s ‘Saving Grace’ podcast, where she openly discussed sleeping with “barely legal” teenagers – leading to her critics to label her a “predator”. She’s now facing bans from countries like Australia and Fiji for trying to recruit young men for her videos.
Her controversial stance was highlighted when she declared on The Reality Check Podcast that it’s acceptable for men to have affairs with her. In a TikTok clip, Bonnie quipped, “This one’s for the husbands that have had to deal with their wives whinging over Christmas, complaining and not really doing much.”
Originally driven by financial gains, Bonnie now insists she’s shedding light on the educational aspects of sex work, admitting, “I didn’t understand the educational side of things, so yeah it started off purely about money. But, as I got into it and as I educated myself on the industry, not only did I realise how much pleasure I received from it but also how much there’s a missing gap on educational content online.”

The discourse surrounding Bonnie Blue has ignited arguments about sex work, consent, manipulation, and misogynistic attitudes. Bonnie claims that she has been “vilified” by the media as a female in the sex industry, while her critics say that she is encouraging misogynistic attitudes.
Radio host Jackie Henderson hit back at Bonnie’s justification for infidelity, saying: “I don’t like what you’re saying at all – you just think women should service men.” Meanwhile, podcast creator Billy Turner has criticised her for targeting “barely legal” teens, saying: “It’s predatory to go after the youngest group of people in the demographic that you can have access to. If the roles were reversed and it was a man only seeking young women I think people would be furious about it.”
Bonnie recently faced backlash for a promotional video that went viral with over 800,000 views, where she flirtatiously asked a Five Guys employee if he was “on the menu”. The employee, who turned down her advances, stated: “No I don’t think that’s happening. I’m a Christian man and I’m waiting until marriage. Genuinely I feel like I’m dreaming right now.”
He later commented on X regarding the video, expressing his discomfort: “I thought it was funny at first but in hindsight she never asked for my age, never asked my consent to post and persisted after several times of me saying no. This could’ve gone completely wrong if she did this to someone else.”
