Young single mother Megan Clara has spoken of how she was more naughty than nice this year, in order to ensure her son’s Christmas is better than last time. To be able to afford better presents, the glamorous Brit turned to a career in porn films.

Megan Clara, 20, has spoken of her distress last Christmas when her five-year-old son Ashton complained that he didn’t receive the same expensive presents as his friends, reports Caters News Agency.

At the time the young mother from Portsmouth survived on benefits of just £80 a week, which meant she could only save enough to give her son an Etch-A-Sketch, some cuddly toys and new clothes. After becoming pregnant at the age of 13 by an older boy she says she tried her hardest to provide, but life has been a struggle.

Vowing that Christmas 2015 would be different, she spent 2014 appearing in adult films at a rate of £500 a scene. She explained:

“Last Christmas I could barely scrape any money together, it was really tough and I couldn’t help but worry Ashton was going to be left out and disappointed.

“My son has always been high maintenance and never seemed happy with the Christmas presents I could afford. He has always wanted what his friends had but I didn’t have the spare cash for expensive toys.

“Being on benefits was a struggle, I was living off just £80 per week, it was awful scraping by.

“I wanted to become a glamour model from the age of seven after idolising Katie Price but I didn’t have the confidence until my late teens to even try modelling. I was bullied at school but when I saw an old friend stripping off, I got in touch with her photographer and the rest is history.”

Ms. Clara can now afford the bicycle for which her son has asked Father Christmas for several years, and has spent £1,500 on his Christmas compared to £100 last year. She admits, however, that she may have made something of a rod for her own back.

“The only downside is that he now bribes me into buying him toys for being well-behaved.

“Ashton knows we have more money as I’m able to dress us both in expensive clothes and treat us to more days out.”

Ms. Clara has received a backlash on social media, and even from fellow mothers at the school gates whispering behind her back, for her chosen career path. She concedes it is not for everyone:

“I know not everyone agrees with the adult film industry but I’m a great mum, why should it matter what my occupation is?

“I love the excitement and get a rush– plus it pays well too.”

The young porn actress defends her spending choices, stating that she does not throw away her earnings on alcohol, drugs or smoking and asking: “Why shouldn’t I spend it on Ashton and myself?”

The glamour model, for whom the last year has been “a complete rollercoaster and a whirlwind” posted a video to social media to defend her life choices, which she sums up by saying:

“I know I’m not perfect but I love my little boy to pieces and I know I’m a good mum, that’s all that matters.”
