The golf world is well aware of who Paige Spiranac is. The most notable golf face on social media is well renowned for her beauty and golf tutorials among fans. At times, she loves to troll her huge fan following. However last year, one such joke got a little over the line and almost got her suspended from Instagram.

Spiranac’s social media has been popping up for the past few years. However, she also spends most of her time hosting her podcast, Playing A Round With Paige Renee. During an episode of her podcast last year, an OnlyFans joke wasn’t well received by her followers as well as the Instagram policies.

How Paige Spiranac fooled her fans on April’s Fools?

In the April of Last year, Spiranac decided to join in on the April Fools Day train with a little joke on her Instagram handle. Since most fans were eagerly asking the former pro golfer to make an OnlyFans account, she decided to give the fans what they want. Or at least that’s what they thought.

“Everyone’s always asking me for an OnlyFans. So I’m going to an April Fool’s and say, ‘Swipe up to subscribe to my OnlyFans”, revealed Spiranac in her podcast. However, when the fans swiped up to visit her OnlyFans account, they only got to see the social media influencer in a towel.

Sexiest Woman in 2022 Paige Spiranac Once Revealed How ‘Drinking’ Would Have Helped Her Play Better Golf

Though many understood Paige Spiranac’s humor, some fans weren’t happy about it and ended up reporting the Instagram post. She said, “A lot of people thought it was really funny, I got a lot of angry messages because they didn’t understand it. So I felt like that was who was reporting it”.

Maxim’s 2022 Sexiest Woman Alive further revealed that her joke about creating an OnlyFans account would put her social media account in jeopardy. “You can’t say OnlyFans on Instagram because they’re really strict on that”, added Spiranac. So where further actions were taken by Instagram against the biggest golf social media star?

Spiranac almost faced Instagram suspension

After her post was reported by some of her followers, the 29-year-old claimed to be ‘livid’ and ‘mad’ with her fans. She was unable to log in back to her account, making her think that her account was suspended by Instagram due to the breach of their policy. Spiranac said, “It wasn’t letting me log on, it was so weird. The report said, ‘You can’t solicit s*xual content and you’re reported’”.

The former pro further added, “I was freaking out, I don’t want my account to be suspended”. Nonetheless, Spiranac and her team asked Instagram asked to verify the post once again. After a thorough check, the most followed golfer’s Instagram account was active again.

Spiaranc addressed how she had never been reported in her past five years of social media influencer career. She ended by saying, “I got really nervous. That’s our business, our main stream of revenue”. Even the biggest entities suffer from the policies of social media giant companies.

In case if only Spiranac’s Instagram account would never have been reactivated, it wouldn’t take her much time to create a new account and retain her massive following. Nonetheless, the problem never occurred, and the reign of golf’s social media queen continues.
