"I realised how much I was missing."

It feels like every day another reality TV star is announcing they’ve joined OnlyFans, but Ella Ding has found another way to make bank – and it’s just as sexy.

The former Married At First Sight bride has followed in the footsteps of Abbie Chatfield by partnering with sexual wellness brand VUSH, creators of some of WHO’s cult favourite sex toys.

Rather than posing for saucy selfies to share on OnlyFans (though that’s a perfectly valid way to make money too!), Ella is promoting sex positivity in her own way.

After she stuck by co-star turned bestie Domenica Calarco when she was embroiled in the recent MAFS nude photo scandal, we know Ella’s a sex-positive gal.

But she took to Instagram this week to confess she wasn’t always clued-up about self-love, pleasure and sexual wellness.

“As women, not being overly educated on how our sexual experiences should be, when I had my first orgasm from a self love sesh I realised how much I was missing,” she wrote.

“It literally changed my life and confidence forever… being single for so long has motivated me to understand loving myself alone. And it’s fun!”

Ella has “no shame” around self-love, something she’s encouraging other women to embrace as she and other reality stars start to speak more candidly about sex.

From posting on OnlyFans accounts, to sharing details of their own sex lives and even launching their own sex toys a la Abbie Chatfield, Aussie stars are being more honest than ever about pleasure.

It’s inspired millions of Aussie women to do the same, with sex toy sales spiking in recent years, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic when self-love was all some of us could get.

Ella revealed her go-to toy for such occasions; the VUSH Empress 2, a clitoral stimulator that’s prefect for everyone from beginners to the pros.

“I have used a variety of sexual wellness products to understand what suits my anatomy best, and what sends my body into a hot flush,” she added cheekily.

“And I’ve found the Empress 2 does this the best.”

It probably helps that she’s making some cash off the deal too – after all, there’s nothing like money in the bank to make a girl feel sexy.

Fortunately she passed some of the financial boost onto her fans too, offering them 50 per cent off the Empress 2 with her code ELLA. We love a generous influencer!

So can we expect Ella to go full Chantelle Otten and start trialling sex toys on her Instagram page?

Maybe not yet – after all, Chantelle is a sexologist so it’s part of the job – but we’re eager to see where Ella’s sex-positive career goes next.
