Ex-Premier League star Oliver Spedding, who left football for the adult film industry, passes away a


At the age of 34, Oliver Spedding, a former Premier League young talent who transitioned into the adult film industry, has passed away. Spedding began his football career at Crystal Palace, but his enthusiasm for the sport waned during a period of imprisonment. Despite this, he continued playing at the non-league level with Croydon FC while also pursuing a career in the adult film industry.

His former club, Croydon, announced his death and observed a minute’s silence before their match, expressing their sorrow at the loss of the much-loved individual. The club’s statement conveyed their deep sense of loss and offered condolences to his family and friends during this challenging time.

Following his time in prison, Spedding, who was romantically involved with fellow adult film star Sophie Anderson, transitioned to a profession as a painter and decorator before entering the adult film industry. He regretted his decision to abandon a potential career at Selhurst Park, revealing that he earned only £150 per film.

Despite considering a return to football, as discussed with Croydon manager Liam Giles prior to his passing, Spedding ultimately met an untimely end. Giles expressed his sorrow and admiration for Spedding’s commitment on the field, emphasizing their recent conversation about a possible return to football and extending his well-wishes to Spedding.

Tributes for Spedding also came from former teammates from his time at the non-league club.
