• The Pharaohs Forgot to Sign the Paperwork: Scottish Museum Removes Mummies Over Lack of Consent

Caroline Vee, 73, spent much of her life following a strict routine of prayer and celibacy. But at 57, she experienced a “sexual awakening” that completely changed her life.

“I became an escort in 2017,” Vee told hosts Billy and Lauren on the Tea At Four podcast.

“When I became a Christian and sex was forbidden, I thought, ‘I didn’t really like it when I was younger anyway, so I’m not missing anything,’” she explained. “That’s how I lived for 40 years. Partly because the church forbade it, and partly because I just wasn’t interested.”

Her perspective shifted after joining her first dating site, where she began receiving attention from men who found her attractive. “I even had messages from 18-year-olds wanting to meet me,” she admitted. Just last week, she had a 20-year-old client.

Meeting people through dating sites introduced Vee to the world of swinging, and she was encouraged to try escort work. “I urgently needed money because banks were trying to take my house due to an unpaid mortgage,” she said. She also explored phone sex after seeing a show about a woman who earned enough to fix her home. Later, she connected with a photographer who offered to shoot her for an adult website.

Today, Vee, known as “Curvy Grandma,” earns thousands of pounds monthly and has appeared on several popular British TV shows.

Despite her involvement in adult content, she says platforms like OnlyFans aren’t for her. “I’m registered, but I’ve never posted anything. You have to upload content 24/7, and that would be incredibly boring for me,” she said.

“The fact that I’m 73 doesn’t mean I have to stop having sex or showing my body. I’m proud of what I’ve achieved. If that bothers anyone—that’s their problem,” Vee added.
