Former Team GB speed skater Elise Christie has made a striking transition from the ice rink to the online world of OnlyFans.
After competing for Great Britain in three Winter Olympics, Christie retired in 2021, leaving her short track speed skating career behind.
Now, at 34 years old, she’s embracing a new chapter, using her past as part of her current journey.
A New Use for Old Team GB Gear
Christie has taken a unique approach to her OnlyFans content by incorporating her old Team GB gear.
Recently, she shared a daring image in which she posed in her full Olympic outfit, complete with skates.
Posting the image on X, she cheekily captioned it with: “Is it tight enough?” The photo quickly went viral, sparking mixed reactions from her followers.
For many, this was a surprising move, as Christie’s Olympic past and her decision to use it as part of her new venture caused quite a stir.
Her X profile also features a link to her OnlyFans page, where she offers exclusive content, with a description that reads: “I’m Elise Christie – your favourite speed demon on ice, and now, your personal glimpse into the world beyond the rink.
Prepare to be teased, tantalized, and perhaps even a little surprised.”
A New Life After Speed Skating
Christie’s life post-retirement has been a journey of personal growth.
Once struggling with alcoholism, homelessness, and self-harm, she has now found happiness as both a mother and a successful OnlyFans creator.
She charges £7 per month for her exclusive content and, as of last year, reportedly earned around £5,000 a month from her 700 subscribers.
Her career in speed skating was nothing short of impressive, with highlights such as becoming the first British woman to win a world championship title in 2017.
That year, she took home gold in both the 1000m and 1500m events at the World Championships in Rotterdam.
She also set a world record in the 500m at a World Cup event in Salt Lake City in 2016.
Olympic Struggles and Retirement
Despite her success on the world stage, Christie’s Olympic journey was filled with setbacks.
Competing in Vancouver 2010, Sochi 2014, and PyeongChang 2018, she faced disqualifications and crashes, which meant she never managed to secure an Olympic medal.
These challenges weighed heavily on her as she announced her retirement from the sport in December 2021, acknowledging that part of her heart would always feel unfulfilled without an Olympic podium finish.
Now, Elise Christie is carving out a new path for herself, embracing her past while creating a fresh future as a content creator.
