The phrase “OnlyFans for…” has become shorthand for any paid, fan-first platform, and now it’s reached the vet’s office. According to The Sun‘s Jack Hardwick, Channel 4’s Supervet, Noel Fitzpatrick, is launching his own pay-per-view platform that the paper describes as a sort of OnlyFans for pet lovers.
Clothes stay on
Before anyone gets the wrong idea, Hardwick made it clear that the Irish-born TV star will be keeping his clothes on. The platform is called the Noel Fitzpatrick Fan Pass, and it’s built for followers who want to keep up with everything he’s working on.
The 58-year-old told The Sun he brushes off the heartthrob label, but he admitted that fame has brought him plenty of admirers, some of whom send messages so racy that “the details aren’t publishable.”
What the Fan Pass includes
The Sun reported that a free version of the Fan Pass will give everyone a monthly Q&A with Fitzpatrick. The launch comes with a packed calendar: Supervet Live is set for Tuesday, October 27, followed by a new episode of Supervet ER that Friday. He’s also starting a podcast called Where To Next?, with EastEnders duo Sam Womack and Rita Simons booked as the first guests. The report didn’t spell out what the paid tier costs.
It’s not his only new project this fall. According to Away With Media‘s tour listing, Fitzpatrick is on the road with Medicine & Music, a show that mixes stories about what animals have taught him with live rock songs played with his band. The tour runs from October 18 to November 29, 2026.
A celebrity vet with ordinary clients
Fitzpatrick’s client list has included famous names. The Sun noted that everyone from Harry and Meghan to Declan Donnelly has called on him to help their pets. Still, he says every animal gets the same treatment, and about 90 percent of his clients are ordinary members of the public. He employs 190 people across his practices.
He called the new platform “the most important thing I’ve ever done in my life,” and tied it back to his childhood. “It gives me a physical portal that I’ve dreamed about since I lost my first patient, at age ten, on a frosty field in Ireland,” he told The Sun. “I’ve been wanting to find a portal I can translate all of me through, because we’re only alive once. Every second counts.”
The takeaway
The subscription model OnlyFans made famous is no longer just for adult creators. TV personalities, athletes and now a celebrity surgeon are using the same playbook: a free tier to pull people in, paid access for superfans, and a direct line to the audience without a network in the middle. Fitzpatrick’s version swaps spice for spaniels, but the business idea is the same, and it shows how far the creator economy has spread.
