I found out it was happening week after week. It would be one grand, two grand, then three grand, four grand. It just kept adding up,\u201d she said during an episode of Stan\u2019s new reality series Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/7dc6fcf14f3d07942cfe4d10dd6f8383ea36289b.jpg\" alt=\"Henry Brayshaw and Annie Knight.\" class=\"css-16r7l45-StyledImage en5ut4d0\"\/>Camera IconHenry Brayshaw and Annie Knight. Credit: Supplied<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">\u201cWhat really broke me wasn\u2019t even the money. It was finding out he\u2019d been lying to me. That was the betrayal. That was the thing that pushed me over the edge and made me question whether our relationship could survive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">\u201cI spent a full week crying from the minute I woke up until the minute I went to bed. I still had to film a TV show in between all of that, but it was honestly the hardest week of my life. I thought I was going to lose everything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">She said the experience taught her one of the hardest lessons she\u2019s ever learned: that no matter how much you love someone, you can\u2019t save them from addiction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">\u201cThe most difficult part about loving someone with an addiction is that they are not their addiction. Who Henry is at his core is such a beautiful, loving, kind and trustworthy person. Addiction changes people. It turns them into someone they\u2019re not,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">\u201cI realised that just because someone has an addiction doesn\u2019t mean you have to accept being hurt. I understood that addiction was making Henry lie and manipulate people, but that didn\u2019t mean I deserved to feel used or manipulated.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/d94691721e99cd882127ea3970df3613e3ac87df.jpg\" alt=\"Knight's sparkling engagement ring.\" class=\"css-16r7l45-StyledImage en5ut4d0\"\/>Camera IconKnight&#8217;s sparkling engagement ring.

Looking back now, if it ever happened again, I wouldn\u2019t do that. I\u2019d ask for help immediately.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">\u201cThe biggest lesson I\u2019ve learned is that no matter how much you love someone else, you have to love yourself enough to know when it\u2019s time to put yourself first.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">Knight and Brayshaw first met in 2016 while working together at a pub in Melbourne. They got engaged during a trip to Cancun in March 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">Knight rose to fame for being \u201cAustralia\u2019s most sexually active woman\u201d, filming with \u201cbarely legal 18-year-olds\u201d at Schoolies and for having sex with nearly 600 men in a day in May 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">While Brayshaw is the son of former WA cricketer and Channel 7 commentator James Brayshaw, and the cousin of Fremantle Docker Andrew Brayshaw and ex-AFL players Angus and Hamish Brayshaw.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">The couple plan to tie the knot at a $170,000 wedding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Australian OnlyFans star Annie Knight has revealed the extent of her fianc\u00e9 Henry Brayshaw\u2019s gambling addiction and how&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":773688,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,447,134,995,1625,17943],"class_list":["post-773687","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-influencers","tag-lifestyle","tag-love-relationships"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/773687","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=773687"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/773687\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/773688"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=773687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=773687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=773687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
