"A lot of very strange stuff has happened in the last six to eight months," Chelsi says when we chat on the phone. Chelsi is in a very different position now to where she was at the start of the year. Initially being self-employed in the beauty industry, Chelsi was served a Section 21 in January. Just a few months later, she made the move to start working in the porn industry - a decision that she says has turned her life around.
A single mum, Chelsi had been self-employed in the field of beauty for a number of years, but says she was struggling to keep up with rent. After missing rent payments to her private landlord a few times, Chelsi was served a Section 21 notice in January, giving her six months to leave the property. She and her three-year-old son found themselves sofa surfing, staying with family members and friends.
Two months after being served the notice, the 27-year-old felt she had nothing to lose and decided she wanted to enter the porn industry through her Only Fans page. "I thought, 'Right, stuff it," she said. By May, Chelsi had booked on to film her first porn scene for the platform.
