In today’s episode of the popular ITV daytime show, hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard chatted with 24 year old Latiesha Jones, who rakes in a whopping £5,000 a week by selling her toenail clippings. Not only that, but she’s also made a pretty penny from flogging old bedsheets and even bottles of her own spit to strangers online. After making enough dosh to clear her debts and purchase her first home, Latiesha is now helping other women follow in her footsteps. During the chat, Latiesha revealed that she had initially dreamed of becoming a doctor and even started studying biomedical science at university, but dropped out in her second year.

It was during lockdown when sites like OnlyFans began to gain traction online that she realised just how “money motivated” she was, reports Wales Online. “[The idea] didn’t come from anyone else, it came from a customer, they’d messaged me and asked if I could sell my spit or shower water,” Latiesha shared. “I was thinking, ‘What on earth?’ I thought at first he was joking, like it someone just taking the mick or whatever.” Latiesha soon discovered that there was a “huge” community out there interested in “weird stuff”, so she started selling unusual items – with prices significantly increasing over time.

“I think from when I started, what I was doing at first to now, it’s changed massively. It’s more comfortable and my boundaries are much more firm and in place, and I feel like I’ve got much more control over things,” she concluded. This Morning viewers were totally put off by today’s segment and made their feelings known on X – the platform formerly known as Twitter. “This is so gross, I’m turning over,” one viewer tweeted, visibly upset. Another chimed in with equal distaste: “Why even have this as a segment? I feel sick.

“Stop the world, I want to get off,” declared another frustrated fan, while one more added to the chorus of disapproval: “Another highbrow story being discussed on This Morning. Why the hell would you buy someone else’s toenails.” questioned a fifth perplexed viewer, clearly finding the segment beyond bizarre. This Morning airs weekdays on ITV at 10am
