Now, she has revealed when fans should next expect to see her on their TV screens.
In a post to Instagram on Thursday, she explained how she will be back in action for Antonio Vargas' bantamweight contest against Winston Guerrero in Orlando, Florida.
The 21-year-old showed off his black and blue attire for the event in a post captioned: “Your favourite ring girl is back. Catch me in the ring again tomorrow on DAZN.”
Although brands will likely want to work with Thomas to supplement her earnings from her role as a ring girl, she is also still at university.
According to the Mail, she currently attends The University of Alabama.
Recently Thomas admitted that she was getting more attention than ever.
“There's everything, anything from blue check marks to random people,” she explained [via Mail].
"My DMs are just insanely flooded right now," she told US Weekly in November.
"There's definitely been some pretty big names and brands that have reached out.
"I woke up and saw how my followers had gone up, and then saw all the news articles that had been written about me.”
Her love life has also been the subject of interest from fans, having broken up with her boyfriend last summer.
“I don't even care to read through any of that,” she said [via Mail].
“I'm so happy with myself, and that's where all my time is going, so anyone reaching out who's wanting to be with me, it's just slipping right on by because I do not have any intention to involve myself with that.”
