Image: Dunn says she is 'sad' to leave Hollyoaks but stands by her decision. "This is my choice to do what I want with my body. "That's why I've stood by my choice because actually it's a bigger thing," she said. "It's my choice, my body."Īfter years of women's images on screen and in print being largely dictated by men, more and more stars are looking to control who makes money from their bodies. That is why I was shocked and disappointed that they weren't able to support me in my decision to just move my content to another platform." The actress did not go as far as calling the show hypocritical herself, but said: "The reason that I've done so many shoots like this, lads mags and things, is because of my connection with the show. While the calendars have been dropped and Hollyoaks has toned down its sexier image in recent years, many on social media have called the soap hypocritical for its decision to drop Dunn. Hollyoaks has said that cast members who wanted to participate in the calendar shoots "were able to do so on commercial terms". Female stars were regularly photographed for lads magazines such as FHM and the soap up until 2013 had its own calendars, featuring Hollyoaks "babes" and "hunks" in their underwear and swimsuits. With a young and glamorous cast, Hollyoaks was known for its sexy image, particularly in its earlier years. "So it's there if you want to see, I'm not forcing anyone to move across to that platform, but actually a lot of men - and women, I would like to add - have followed me over there, which has been great." And for the people that did want to see bikini and underwear - the shoots I've been doing all of my life, basically - I've just put it in a different space. I want to tailor that now to people that want to see fitness, that want to see family, that want to see my relationship, that want to see holiday and things like that. "My demographic on my Instagram account is like 75% women. The actress said the move has allowed her to make her Instagram "more wholesome", meaning fans can access different content depending on what they are looking for. ![]() "There's nothing on there that I wouldn't put on my Instagram account - and was doing prior to this." "My content isn't explicit content," she said. Because of the 18+ stipulation, users are able to post sexual content on OnlyFans but the actress argues it provides a platform for all sorts of content creators and that it is actually "safer" as under-18s cannot view it. ![]() Pic: Channel 4/ Lime Picturesĭunn said she had been thinking of monetising her images for a while but had her own "preconceptions" about OnlyFans at first. Raphael is credited with driving the evil spirit from Sarah and restoring Tobit's vision, allowing him to see the light of Heaven and for receiving all good things through his intercession.Image: Dunn had played Mandy Richardson in Hollyoaks on and off since 1996. Raphael guided Tobiah and taught him how to safely enter the marriage with Sarah. The demon Asmodeus killed every man Sarah married on the night of the wedding, before the marriage could be consummated. It is then that his true healing powers are revealed and he makes himself known as "the angel Raphael, one of the seven, who stand before the Lord" Tobit 12:15. Once Raphael returns from his journey with Tobiah, he declares to Tobit that he was sent by the Lord to heal his blindness and deliver Sarah, Tobiah's future wife, from the demon Asmodeus. Raphael's name means "God heals." This identity came about because of the biblical story that claims he "healed" the earth when it was defiled by the sins of the fallen angels in the apocryphal book of Enoch.ĭisguised as a human in the Book of Tobit, Raphael refers to himself as "Azarias the son of the great Ananias" and travels alongside Tobit's son, Tobiah. He appears, by name, only in the Book of Tobit. Raphael is one of the seven Archangels who stand before the throne of the Lord, and one of the only three mentioned by name in the Bible.
