Harry Potter Actress Jessie Cave Barred From Fan Convention Over OnlyFans Account

Jessie Cave, known for her role as Lavender Brown in the Harry Potter films, revealed she was barred from attending a Harry Potter fan convention due to her OnlyFans account, despite her content being non-sexual and focused on hair-related material. The convention organizers cited the show's family-friendly nature and OnlyFans' association with adult content as reasons for excluding her, which Cave found baffling given that many actors involved in such events have appeared in films or TV shows with explicit scenes. Cave joined OnlyFans in early 2025 to help pay off debts and fund home renovations, acknowledging the platform's stigma but emphasizing that her page does not feature pornographic content. Although disappointed, she expressed acceptance of the situation, noting the franchise's transition to a new generation with an upcoming HBO reboot and her readiness to move on to new roles after over 15 years of convention appearances. The controversy highlights ongoing tensions regarding OnlyFans' reputation versus the varied nature of content creators on the platform and the challenges performers face in balancing financial needs with public perception. Cave's experience underscores changing dynamics within fan communities and the entertainment industry as they adapt to new media landscapes.
