“I feel having that platform to really focus on boxing means I can split the two instead of mixing them together too much,” Rheanna Cartier explained to Daily Star Sport.

The beauty queen turned boxer has her eyes set on the professional world of the sweet science – and was keen to take her thousands of social media fans along for the ride.

Despite her sizeable following on Instagram – Rheanna decided to utilise Playboy’s Creator platform to share her training videos. I” think that’s another reason,” she said. “I think it would be nice to have something just dedicated to boxing!

“Where it will literally just be all about my training and things like that. I’ll still include it on my Instagram as well!

Rheanna was just 16 when she was scouted at a train station and began her modelling career. A year later, she entered Miss England and won the ‘no make-up’ round, marking her first taste of pageant success.

But while pageants became a major part of her life, boxing had always been in the back of her mind. In 2025, she finally stepped into the ring and won her debut bout. Her journey from beauty queen to boxer soon caught attention – including from Playboy.

“I saw that they had the Playboy Creator platform and I decided to join because they’d supported me with that article!”

For Rheanna, the subscription platform offered another way to give her fans a closer look at her training and her journey into the world of combat sports.

“They’d supported me at the start; I really wanted to work with them in that way.” She added that nobody else on the platform showcased boxing: “I just thought it would be a good opportunity!”

Now, fans can follow Rheanna as she attempts to turn her childhood ambition into a professional career.

“Even though pageants were my dream before, boxing was always there because it was something I wanted to do when I was younger.

“So my ultimate goal and my ultimate focus now is boxing. Even though I’m still doing pageants, I think, ‘If I can, I might as well,’ especially when I’m travelling and things like that.

“But the main goal is actually progressing in boxing. I’d love to win a title and be a professional boxer.”
