Actor James Sutton, best known for playing gay character John Paul McQueen on Hollyoaks, has joined adult platform OnlyFans.

Sutton, 43, announced on Friday 17 April that he has launched an account on the platform following his recent departure from the Channel 4 soap.

The actor is using the account to document life after Hollyoaks, alongside his work as a writer, speaker and creator of self-help platform Protocol.

His content, which costs $15.99 per month, will include insights into his podcast Male Mind Matters, his fitness routine, and his work as a keynote speaker. He will also appear in a series for OFTV, the platform’s original content channel.

Sutton’s profile describes him as: “Actor. Writer. Speaker. Mindset. Identity. Fitness. Very often undressed,” and promises “unfiltered access” to training sessions, programming breakdowns and the realities of maintaining fitness in his forties.

Speaking about the move, Sutton said: “OF felt like a natural next step for me.

“It gives me the freedom to share more of who I am beyond the characters I once played and to connect with those fans that have supported me throughout my career.”
