A model branded “Aston Villa’s sexiest fan” claims she was DM’d by one of her heroes after she offered an X-rated award for their season.
Unai Emery’s men finished fourth in the Premier League meaning they will play in Europe’s top flight next season for the first time since 1983.
And Alexia Grace, who was supposedly hit on by an EastEnders actor, promised to send the players “free nudes” for overachieving on the pitch.

The 25-year-old, who earns money as a racy model, said on a video: “I actually cannot believe we finished fourth. That is crazy and I really wasn’t expecting that. Emery is an absolute genius and we don’t have the backup from the benches like Man City and Liverpool.

“Our boys did absolutely incredible especially with all the injuries we have. I know I said if we came first I would post nudes all over Twitter.
“We didn’t come first but seeing as we did so well, I would like to say to any football players that play for Aston Villa to message me and you will get a nude for free. I love you guys… and Emery.”
And the Brummie lass revealed to the Daily Star that one first teamer had already declared his interest.
She said: “Actually, I’ve been in touch with one of the players already. We’ve kept it between us. I’m not sharing names though.”
Alexia defied a tough upbringing to earn a fortune on OnlyFans and in recent years has crossed over into influencer boxing – even sharing a ring with Astrid Wett.
But despite her own success and that of her club, she said the relegation of arch rivals Birmingham City into League One was perhaps the sweetest victory of all.

“Seeing Brimingham get relegated while we got Champions League was absolutely brilliant,” she laughed. “You know I’m not their biggest fan, so it made our success feel even better.”
But Blues aside, Alexia said she was excited to see how Villa matched up against the best teams in the world.
She added: “I’m over the moon. It’s like all the stars aligned for us. Being in the Champions League is huge – and it just shows how hard our boys have worked. I can’t wait to see them take on Europe.”
Alexia gets no shortage of attention online because of her provocative content – but one man she did not expect to slide into her DMs was Dean Gaffney from Eastenders.
She claims the Londoner, who played Robbie Jackson on the BBC soap, wrote to her in February before later adding: “Couldn’t sleep waiting to see if you would reply and see my messages.”
He then asked her the “standard Karen questions” like where she was from and how old she was before saying he did not want to be “mentioned in papers”.

Speaking about the interactions, football lover Alexia said: “He messages me quite regularly to be honest. I know a lot of girls block him but I’ve not because I just don’t open them any more.
“He messaged at first just like an emoji and I replied like, ‘Hi, aren’t you in EastEnders ’ because I actually used to watch EastEnders all the time so it was a bit mad that an EastEnders person had messaged me.”
She also said he sent her messages whenever he was in the Midlands and she believes his intention was to meet up with her.
Dean apparently wrote in March of last year: “Hey I’m in Notts today is that near you.” Alexia never replied but in August he followed up with: “I’m in Derby.”
He also sent her a picture he took alongside Aston Villa footballer John McGinn, something she believes was designed to impress her. Alexia kept the messages to herself before Dean’s name began trending on X.
Dean declined to comment on the story when we reached out to him for a response.
