Meet the real-life ‘mermaid’ who can earn more working once a week than she earned working full time in previous jobs. Rosemarie Palmer, 23, took the plunge and set up her own business as a mermaid entertainer in May this year, following her childhood dreams. The mother-of-one decided to become a ‘full-time mermaid’ as she wanted to inspire her three-year-old son to follow his dreams. The former nail technician and hairdresser had grown up wanting to be a mermaid and, after hearing about mermaid entertainers online, she decided to make the career change. Determined Rosemarie said it was “the best job ever” despite months of vigorous training to learn to swim in the thousand pound tail.
