Ellie-Jean Coffey
Ellie-Jean Coffey (25 November 1994) is an Australian model, softcore actress and professional surfer.[1][2]
Early life
The elder of seven, Coffey (originally from the Gold Cost of Queensland) [3]spent her childhood travelling around Australia with her family. Both her parents were keen surfers, and for 10 years they travelled Australia, while being home-schooled. During this time she learned to surf and decided to become a professional surfer.[4] The family regularly attended surfing competitions, which Ellie-Jean entered and eventually started doing well at [5].
Career
Coffee won second place at the Junior World Surfing championships held in Panama in 2012 [6]. The surfer tried single-fin board, traditional style at the Single fin classic in 2015, and dominated the competition, despite not having used one previously [7]. By 2017, Coffey was ranked 97th in the QS world rankings.[8][9] She is also a model[10]. Her high-profile images on her media sites started attracting a lot of attention, while continuing to raise her profile. This resulted in her getting a number of sponsorship deals from surf-related fashion companies, including with Billabong (clothing)[11], Von Zipper and Surf Stitch [12]. She has also published her own softcore images via her own website [5].
Coffee has made claims that the surfing competition environment is misogynistic. She gave up on entering competitions after 2017. She has stated that surf community and competition contain a lot of negativity and even abuse towards women, and the many years she had spent in it had affected her, to the point where she had sought therapy.[13] [14] She still surfs, but only recreationally, and not in competitions. [15]
In 2021, her 1-million-strong Instagram account was taken down by Instagram, following complaints. It was alleged the complaints were from vexatious, co-ordinated attacks [12].
