Tempting Fortune star Sam Willett has given into temptation as she revealed her plans to join adult subscription-based website OnlyFans after receiving hundreds of direct messages from ‘desirable’ men when she took part in the programme. The Channel 4 series, which premiered in 2023, saw 12 contestants travel through the South African wilderness.
One of the contestants of the show, hosted by Paddy McGuinness, was Sam and the stars all had basic survival gear as they tried to reach a shared £300,000 prize. Following her time on the show, restaurant owner Sam revealed she received 500 messages from interested men.
Speaking to The Sun, she said: “I’ve certainly got exciting plans for the future, including a new Channel 4 show and I’m even considering launching an OnlyFans page after receiving nearly 500 DMs from desirable men with a few surprises.”
During her chat, she also discussed the moment fellow contestant Vicki spent £600 on a bowl of cheesy chips and treated herself to a comfy bed after a day of trekking through the wilderness.
Sam explained: “Vicki was something else. She claims she was bullied on the show, and nothing could be further from the truth. The support from producers, medics, and aftercare was immense.”
She also dropped £2,000 to take a cab to get through a trek and bought a Fanta. Her decisions infuriated fans but the star recently revealed she doesn’t regret her choices.
“I calculated that by the time I had the cheesy chips I’d only had about 800 calories in 8 days.
“You don’t see it, but the rice was making me vomit. Every time I ate it I was throwing it up. I was trying but I couldn’t stomach it,” she recently told Metro.co.uk.
According to Vicki, the group encouraged her to spend what was needed to regain her energy back up as she stopped eating the rice.
A huge argument broke out when the contestants found she was eating at the pop-up pub, with them calling her ‘selfish’ and ‘shameless’ for spending so much money.
“The shock for me was that before that they’d been telling me to take food if it was offered [and then turned on me],” she explained.
“If people are going to begrudge me for eating…if they’d offered me a nourishing meal I’d have taken that. I’m not just a greedy girl who wants cheesy chips. I also chose the cheapest thing on the menu.”
