A “PROFESSIONAL GIRLFRIEND” who gets paid to go on lavish dates has already been showered with over £3k of gifts in 2025 – including a PlayStation 5 and two nights in a 5* hotel.
Ruby Jade, 24, works as a ‘professional girlfriend’ and says men pay her to dress up and go out on fancy dates with them.
Her clients also shower her with treats – such as fancy hotel stays, flight upgrades, jewellery, bouquets of flowers and holidays.
Since the start of 2025 alone, she has had more than £3k splashed on her – including a brand-new £490 PS5 and games, a £120 back massager, and a £100 Amazon Alexa.
It also includes being paid over £1,300 to go for fancy meals and cocktails.
Ruby, who doesn’t share her real name, from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, said: “I love my work as a professional girlfriend.
“I’ve been paid to go to fancy dinners, arcades, theme parks, and spas.
“I’ve even been taken on holidays by clients, including a trip to Singapore last year.
“My client who got me the Playstation 5 couldn’t really afford it – he had to do buy-now-pay-later on it to afford it.
“But he really wanted to buy it for me. He also pays for £44-a-week for me to take Chinese lessons.
“Another one paid for first-class flights and a five-star hotel for me when I went on a work trip – he didn’t even see me while I was there!”
Ruby works as a dancer in a strip club but her side hustle as a ‘professional girlfriend’ is now more lucrative than dancing.
Despite being classed as a ‘sex worker’, she insists she never has sex with clients – and the most she’ll do is wear lingerie, or hold hands.
For the clients, the sexual gratification comes from spending time with her, and showering her in gifts.
And the first two months of 2025 have seen her rake in thousands of pounds of gifts and treats.
She was paid almost £500 just for her time when she was invited on a date on Valentine’s Day – on top of enjoying a £150 dinner.
Another time she was paid £500 to go for a meal with a client that came to almost £200 – and didn’t pay a penny of her own money.
She said: “Generally when I go to dinners, I don’t go easy on their wallets.
“I’ll happily rack up a bill of £250 plus and then I ask to take home leftovers!”
She has also been gifted £300 of homeware – including books, smart lights, an outdoor rug, and a giant teddy bear.
She said: “Most of the gifts I get, I pick for myself, I have an Amazon wishlist that clients pick things from.
“But sometimes I get things I could never expect – in the mail today, I got a huge pack of strawberry waffles.
“I never told that client I like waffles, I guess he just wanted me to try them.”
She said her favourite gift of the year has been a gold-dipped ‘eternity rose’ house decoration, because it holds sentimental value to her – even though, at £119, it’s far from the most expensive.
Along with that, to try to ‘win her heart’, the client brought a picnic to her next shift at the club to have with her.
Ruby is continuing stripping, working as a professional girlfriend, and doing her other side hustle – ‘cucking’ – being paid to watch people bonk.
Her aim is to become a millionaire within the next three years, and is already a quarter of the way there, she says.
Ruby says the gifts and holidays don’t add to that total, but says they’re a very welcome addition.
She said: “For the moment, I would never be in a romantic relationship with any of my clients.
“It doesn’t really align with the goals in my life.
“I don’t see myself having a partner at all in reality right now.”
