Though they make their living through TV appearances, a number of reality stars have apparently been approached with a very different kind of job offer.
Familiar faces from shows like Love Island and TOWIE have been offered money for sex, according to The Sun.
Celeb agent Rob Cooper told the publication that he has seen an increasing number of men propositioning the celebs after the high-profile job opportunities start to dwindle.
The industry professional, who manages Meghan Markle’s sister Samantha, claimed some stars are offered between £4,000 and £20,000 in exchange for sexual favours.
Rob said: “Between 2013 and 2018 there was a steady growth in the number of men reaching out to stars and propositioning celebrities, but since the start of this year there has really been a dramatic increase in men wanting to hire celebrities for sex.
“It’s becoming more normal because fame is nothing like people imagine it to be.”

Swish trips abroad in hotels or on luxury yachts are also apparently on offer, in exchange for time alone with the reality stars.
Rob went on: “Many past reality stars are really struggling financially and have to either face the embarrassment of going back to a normal job or take their clothes off to maintain an income.
“I know of a number of former soap stars and reality TV shows like TOWIE and Love Island have been propositioned.”
He added: “I know of at least ten celebrities who have asked their agents to actively pursue any leads that may give them high-end escorting opportunities.”
