I knew I was in for a spicy afternoon.

I'd flown to the Gold Coast for a lunch date at Burleigh Pavilion with a woman few had heard of a couple of years ago: Kayla Jade.

A relatively little-known OnlyFans star who, during this year's federal election, would become a talking point in the halls of power because of a certain client: 'Peggy Sue'.

Many TikTok sleuths were convinced - wrongly, I might add - this wealthy, powerful man with a submissive sexual proclivity was a certain Australian politician.

We talked about him - and so much more - over the course of an hour. After my meeting with Kayla, I needed a lie down and a stiff drink.

I knew I was in for a spicy afternoon when I flew to the Gold Coast for lunch with 'Blue Eyed Kayla Jade', the Australian escort who became famous by sharing tales of her famous clients 

We spoke about her surprise success on TikTok (she has more than 2.2 million followers) and how she went from escorting to becoming a pop culture phenomenon and business mogul.

In between calamari and margaritas, she spilled secrets about billionaires with bizarre fetishes, celebrity clients with control issues, and why she's had to move house seven times due to obsessed fans.

Oh, and the numerous business ventures she's working on in between - including a new sex toy range for Vush and a podcast called 'Story time with Kayla Jade'.

Billionaires are weird

'The more money they have, the freakier they get,' Kayla told me of her clients.

'One of my regulars is a CEO who books me just so I can punch him in the face.

'He wants to be dominated, humiliated, and roughed up. I didn't think I could do it at first - he seemed so polite. But now I just channel my stress into him.

After my meeting with Kayla, I needed a lie down and a stiff drink, writes Jana Hocking

'Honestly, it's therapeutic.'

She says the biggest misconception about her clients is that they're all creepy or socially awkward.

'It's actually the opposite. They're judges, surgeons, top-tier lawyers. High-functioning types who want to relinquish control behind closed doors.'

The A-list affair

Without naming names (due to non-disclosure agreements), Kayla dished on a week-long rendezvous with an A-lister who flew her overseas to spice up his private parties.

'There were designers waiting to dress me as soon as I landed, themed orgies, and people coming and going at all hours,' she said.

'It was like being trapped inside a very expensive, horny version of The Great Gatsby.'

She didn't sign an NDA when she spent time with rapper Drake during a previous trip to Australia, however.

But when she posted about it, he messaged her to delete the videos. (Daily Mail Australia does not suggest Drake was a paying client.)

'I didn't even tag him, but people put two and two together. The internet is terrifying.'

The perks of fame... 

Kayla says her fame on TikTok protects her from the usual creeps who like to abuse and exploit sex workers. 

Kayla's anonymised tales of her famous clients have made her a bona fide TikTok star - but there is one happy customer everyone asks her about: Peggy Sue

'I've had guys message me saying, "I would never misbehave because I know you'd put me on blast." And they're right. I'm not afraid to name and shame,' she told me.

While sex workers generally live by a code of never outing clients, she doesn't mind helping out wives who suspect their husbands of having a wandering eye.

'Some of my followers are wives checking if their husbands have subscribed to me,' she explained.

'I've had women message me saying, "I think my husband is following you." I always reply, "Send me his name. Let's find out."'

... and the dark side of success

Kayla has had to move house seven times in the past five years due to stalkers. 

'They'll reverse search my TikTok videos, look for clues in my house, compare trees in the background to real estate listings. It's next level,' she said.

'One girl once accidentally posted my PO box on an Instagram unboxing video. Thankfully it wasn't my home address.'

She now employs a legal team to send takedown notices for stolen content that ends up on other platforms like Reddit and Pornhub. 

And has contracts drafted for extra-kinky clients so they know what they're getting themselves into.

'If a guy wants to be dominated or have something really niche done, he's signing a waiver. End of story.'

Peggy Sue

Kayla's anonymised tales of her famous clients have made her a bona fide TikTok star - but there is one happy customer everyone asks her about.

'Peggy Sue' - a well-known, rich gentlemen who likes to, er, be on the receiving end of things. (I think that's about as far as I can go without angering the editor!)

During the election, there was wild and completely unsubstantiated gossip that Peggy Sue was a certain politician.

We have confirmed this is not the case (it's someone else who is not associated with politics) but that didn't stop TikTokers from recklessly and falsely naming names online.

Kayla admitted she was terrified of getting a legal letter from the man in question.

But she stressed that she never once put a name to Peggy Sue or even hinted at his real identity. It was purely invention by her fans.

The new trend: cuckolding

According to Kayla, the current trend among wealthy clients isn't threesomes or bondage - it's cuckolding.

'So many guys want to watch their wives flirt with me while they watch,' she said.

'One A-lister even brought his wife to dinner and got off on watching us. I was just trying to order a pinot!'

Kayla theorises that for rich, famous men who've had a lot of sex, cuckolding is the final frontier of taboo pleasure. It's one of her most popular requests, she says

Kayla theorises that for rich, famous men who've had a lot of sex, cuckolding is the final frontier of taboo pleasure.

'The thrill for them is in the humiliation. For a lot of guys, especially famous ones, it's the only way they can feel something anymore.'

Her OnlyFans origin story

Kayla started her OnlyFans account during Covid.

'I was between jobs, hyper-focused thanks to my ADHD, and saw women making serious money. I thought, why not me? I dove head first in, posted on Reddit, experimented with niches and learned the rules.'

Some of those rules, she says, are bizarre. 

'You can squirt, but you can't pee. You can use a [sex] toy, but not a banana. I learned that the hard way. My first solo video got flagged for community violations - for a piece of fruit!'

The worst sexual sin 

Ask Kayla what drives her mad about men, and the answer is instant: condoms.

'You'd be shocked how many guys try to negotiate taking it off mid-session. I'm like, "Are you serious?" This isn't amateur hour. It's not just for me - it's for you, too.'

She has also encountered clients who have tried stealthing, or removing a condom without consent.

'It's illegal, it's vile, and yes, it's happened to friends of mine, too. That's why I'm so strict now.'

Love, kids, and zero time for dating

Kayla shares custody of her children with her ex-partner, whom she says is her biggest supporter.

'He's like my assistant-slash-nanny-slash-hype-man. We co-parent better today than we ever did as a couple.'

As for new relationships? She says she's jaded and too busy with work.

'I've seen too much. Dating feels like a downgrade. Once you know what really goes on behind closed doors, it's hard to look at men the same.'

And yet, she still has hope.

'If a guy came along who was genuinely supportive, emotionally mature, and not intimidated by my work, I'd consider it. But he'd have to be pretty bloody exceptional.'

What's next for Kayla Jade?

Kayla is working on a podcast, juggling motherhood, shooting content around the world, renovating her new farmhouse and fending off the occasional stalker. 

'I never thought this would be my life. But I've built a career, a fanbase and a lifestyle on my own terms. That feels powerful.'

She left me with this final thought: 'Every man thinks they're a mystery. But trust me, I've seen it all. And most of them aren't nearly as complicated as they think.'
