EastEnders icon Stacey Slater is reportedly going to set up her own OnlyFans account in order to make ends meet.
The mum-of-two, played by Lacey Turner, will be thrust into the racy storyline in the coming weeks.
In recent episodes, Stacey has been struggling amid the cost of living crisis – but it appears things are not going to get any better.

That, coupled with issues with her food van business and family, forces Stacey to sign up for the subscription-based website to bring in some extra income.
A source told The Sun: “There's not much that Stacey hasn't been through and she's as tough as they come, and will do anything for her family.
“Following the recent shocking storyline where her 12-year-old daughter Lily is pregnant, Stacey's aware she'll have another mouth to feed so gets to work.”
The insider added: “In the cost of living crisis, OnlyFans has seen a boom in a similar kind of creator – mums and dads just trying to care for their families. It'll all be handled sensitively and Lacey is a safe pair of hands on every kind of storyline.”
It comes after Stacey put herself at risk of another jail stint this week, after her growing money issues led to her stealing some money.
During a cleaning gig with her mum, Jean, Stacey was tempted by a large amount of cash she found in a cupboard.
She took the money to pay for her broken fridge and a new school uniform for Lily, but was riddled with guilt.
She then had a change of heart, but things take a dramatic turn when she attempts to return the cash with the help of Jean.
Earlier this year, Stacey was shocked to find out about her young daughter's pregnancy.
Following a New Year's Eve party at their family home, it later emerged that she was suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning.
A doctor then pulled Stacey to one side to inform her of a concerning ultrasound that showed that her 12-year-old daughter was expecting a child.
