Britain’s smallest glamour model, Caitlin Hellyer, is standing strong and asserting her power after facing sexualization from men for sharing body-positive pictures in bikinis and lingerie.
At 23, Caitlin, who has dwarfism, is using her platform to challenge beauty standards and embrace her body unapologetically.
From Instagram to OnlyFans: A Game-Changer
Caitlin opened up on This Morning with hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard about how her journey evolved from simply sharing daily outfit photos on Instagram to becoming a content creator on OnlyFans.
Although she was initially hesitant, Caitlin’s partner encouraged her to embrace the platform and profit from her content.
“I was quite nervous to begin with because of the connotations that come with the site,” she confessed.
“But once I did it, it was one of the best things I’ve ever done.”
Empowering Women and Creating Positivity
The model is firm in her belief that she’s taking back control as a woman in today’s world.
“I’m creating positivity for people with my body.
My body is not often seen on magazines or in the media, especially in swimwear or lingerie,” Caitlin explained.
“This is what people with dwarfism need to see too.”
Flexibility and Financial Freedom
Caitlin also highlighted the freedom her job gives her.
With her online career, she can work from home, often only for a few hours a day, allowing her to live life on her own terms.
“We can have any job to a certain extent, but I love the time freedom I have.
I can work three hours a day, go walk the dog, buy clothes, or go on adventures with Guy,” she said.
This flexibility also allowed her to take a four-week trip to Scotland, working seamlessly from her phone while enjoying the experience.
Inspiring the Next Generation
The model, who has 27.4k followers on Instagram, believes strongly in representation.
Growing up, Caitlin didn’t see anyone like herself in advertisements or magazines, particularly when shopping for lingerie.
Now, she is providing that representation and confidence to others.
“It’s nice to give girls confidence, especially late teenage girls, to see that and feel normalised,” she shared.
Supportive Fans Rally Behind Caitlin
Caitlin’s empowering message has resonated with many, as fans flooded her social media with positive comments after her This Morning appearance.
“Just watched it on YT, well done. The world could do with more positive people,” one fan wrote.
Another added, “Yes. Good on you!” Caitlin’s journey of self-love and empowerment is an inspiration to many.
This Morning airs weekdays from 10 am on ITV, ITVX, STV, and the STV Player.
