A grandmother has revealed how she became a dominatrix following her divorce - and gets middle-aged men to clean her house while wearing French maid outfits.

Sherry Lever, 67, from Swindon, explained how she has transformed her conservatory into a 'fetish playroom' and charges men £120 an hour to be her slave.

The retired chef, who goes by the name Mistress Sophia, said she enjoys life through her alter ego, including dressing up in her daring PVC outfits.

Sherry described how she began as a phone sex operator at first, and insists that her adult children are 'supportive' of her dramatic career change.

The grandmother-of-one said: 'Just because I’m in my sixties doesn’t mean I can’t make a living off dominating men while I wear PVC outfits.

'Most ladies my age have retired, but my life has only just started!'

Sherry explained how she decided to reinvent herself after watching a documentary about phone sex when her marriage of 25 years fell apart in 2012.

'After my divorce, I felt worthless with no money or confidence. I started working daily as a phone sex operator. My daughter Amy, 30, thought it was a great idea,' she said.

After deciding she wanted to reinvent herself as a dominatrix, Sherry equipped her conservatory with leather whips, gimp masks, blindfolds, handcuffs and maid outfits

'I realised that I was good at it and, within a week, men were begging me to scream at them and belittle them. I did it, and it was such a thrill.'

Three months later, Sherry decided to take her new career further, inviting one of her clients to come to her home.

She says: 'I secretly scribbled down a phone sex client's number and texted him to come to my house.

'The next day, he appeared at my front door clad in a suit. Before I knew it he changed into a pink-and-white French maid outfit and patent stiletto heels.

'As soon as I saw him, I was so excited. I locked him in the spare room and released him two hours later.

'Then I whipped him on the bottom and demanded he clean my kitchen. Watching him mop, I never felt so alive.'

Sherry continued: 'Afterwards, he paid me £250. It was so much money - I couldn't believe it.

'And I loved being dominating, so I decided to do it fulltime.'

The following day, Sherry dominatrix goodies, including leather whips, gimp masks, blindfolds, handcuffs and maid outfits.

She says: 'Then I transformed my conservatory into a fetish playroom where my men stay.

'I hung up all the black leather whips and chains from the ceiling.

'I put a bed inside. There's a metal cage underneath where I lock my slaves if they stay overnight.'

Over the last six years, Sherry has built up a wide range of clients, aged between 19 and 84.

'I've punished everyone from barristers to surgeons,' she said. 'Over the years my stuff has become worth 9000 from myself and generosity of my slaves.

'Men visit me because they need de-stress, they just want to let off steam. For some it is their sexual fantasy, but for others they find pain relaxing.

'I provide a professional service and men love what I do for them. Some of my submissives are even married but I never feel guilty, because we aren't having sex.'

However, Sherry admits that other people often do have misconceptions about her career.

'I also hate people believing that I take money off men for nothing, I'd never do that. And I'm not a prostitute, these men never touch me,' she said.

'Although sometimes they pay for foot worship which is when they play with my feet.'

Sherry explained how her clients have even dressed as pigs and polished her floors while dancing to the Nutcracker soundtrack.

She also dressed another client as a dog with a puppy mask over his face.

Sherry says: 'It was my most outrageous session, I walked a man to the park dressed in latex on all fours with a lead around his neck.

'I threw a ball for him to fetch, but a dog chased it at the same time. People were giving us funny looks; it was during school hours as I'm cautious of who sees.

'But the embarrassment turned him on. No one dared say anything to us, they must have been afraid.

'Afterwards I tied him to the swing and made him eat dog food out of a dog bowl. It was incredibly fun.'

Sherry told her family about her unconventional career but, to her surprise, they supported her.

She says: 'My son even brought his friends over to show them my fetish playroom. I am over the moon that my family are so supportive, if they weren't i wouldn't do it.

'I try my best to keep my submissives in the conservatory, but my kids don't seem to mind the sissy maids that clean around the house.

'I have helped numerous women in their 60s whose husbands have left them see the light again, and have inspired them to embark on dominatrix work.

'I can't imagine my life without my submissives now, I love being able to punish men. Even if I won the lottery, I'd still do it.

'There's no greater feeling than getting my whip out and making a man wince.'
