Coronation Street star Kimberly Hart-Simpson has teased a racy OnlyFans storyline for her character Nicky Wheatley and Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson).In a chat about her character's future with Daily Star and other press, Kimberly hinted that the NSFW subscription site could be brought onto the cobbles as a way to bring the soap further into the 21st century.OnlyFans allows content creators of any kind to make money from its platform, but the site also tends to include plenty of racy shots, videos and other content.Speaking to press, Kimberly gushed: "I think Nicky and Leanne Battersby, there could be a bit of a connection there because they’ve got similar backgrounds - that’s a story there, the two of them connecting over their experiences. "As we all know, right now the sex industry - which is the longest lasting tradition - in terms of what we’ve just gone through, OnlyFans is thriving so I think it would be interesting to tap into things like that, and areas like that which are so relevant in our world now," she added.

Kimberly also said she's been inundated with messages from sex workers after appearing as Nicky, explaining: "There have been a couple of organisations that have reached out to me to say thank you for [playing the role].

Of course I can’t take all the credit for it, that’s down to the writers as well."People are saying they feel it’s been represented in the right manner.
