Bake Off Star John Whaite Ditches Onlyfans For A Sweeter New Chapter!

From OnlyFans to Oven Mitts: John Whaite’s Big Career Pivot

Hey, baking fans, we’ve got some hot news straight from the kitchen! John Whaite, the charming winner of the third season of Great British Bake Off, has decided to hang up his OnlyFans apron and dive back into what he does best - creating mouthwatering treats. After dipping his toes into the adult content world earlier this year, the 35-year-old star is ready to refocus on his true passion.

You might also remember John from his dazzling moves on Strictly Come Dancing, where he made history as part of the show’s first same-sex male couple with pro dancer Johannes Radebe in 2021. But now, it’s all about flour, sugar, and a whole lot of love as he turns his attention to Ruff Puff Bakehouse and Ruff Puff Brownies, the sweet business he runs with his husband, Paul Atkins.

'I’m so excited to get back to baking - it’s where my heart truly is, and I can’t wait to share this journey with you all,' John shared with his fans.

Rediscovering His Roots with a Dash of Passion

John took to Instagram to spill the tea - or should we say, the batter? - on his big decision. He admitted that while OnlyFans was an interesting detour, his baking ventures have reminded him of the talent he’d been neglecting. Working alongside his team has shifted his perspective, helping him see that his worth isn’t tied to body image but to 'building, baking, and sharing.'

'This isn’t the end of something, it’s the start of a new chapter - one rooted in passion, creativity, and community,' he wrote in his heartfelt post. And let’s just say, we’re already drooling over what’s to come! John also gave a sweet shout-out to his OnlyFans fans and peers, thanking them for their support and wishing them the best.

The response? Pure love. Friends and fans flooded his post with encouragement, including actor and chef Lisa Faulkner who gushed, 'I love you John Whaite,' while baker Jane Dunn called him 'amazing.' Pastry chef Nicola Lamb summed it up with a playful 'Ruff puff forever.'

A Journey of Sweet and Spicy Ventures

John’s detour into OnlyFans came after the cancellation of Steph McGovern’s Channel 4 show Steph’s Packed Lunch in 2023, where he was a regular face. Looking for new avenues, he cheekily described his dual ventures in an interview at the time, saying one business sold brownies and cookies while the other was a 'meatier enterprise.' Well, we’ll let you guess which was which!

Now, he’s all in on the sweet stuff, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to see him back in his element. Whether you’ve followed him since his Bake Off days, cheered during his Strictly finale, or just stumbled upon his story, one thing is clear - John Whaite is cooking up something special.

So, what’s next for this multi-talented star? Stick with us as we keep an eye on his baking empire. Trust us, you won’t want to miss a single crumb of this delicious new chapter!
