Denise Richards credits OnlyFans for revitalizing her acting career, with husband Aaron Phypers' support. The reality show also covers daughter Sami Sheen's struggles in modeling.
Denise Richards has revealed that her OnlyFans account has significantly reignited her acting career, and her husband, Aaron Phypers, plays a crucial role in curating her risqué content.
During the latest episode of her reality show, Denise Richards & Her Wild Things, Richards shared how joining OnlyFans has opened doors to more acting opportunities, contrary to her initial doubts. "I will say that I'm in the top 1% of creators on OnlyFans, so I am very grateful," she said. "It's very empowering, especially for someone my age, that people still want to see me that way."
OnlyFans, a subscription-based platform known for its explicit content, has proven to be a lucrative venture for the actress. She explained that her husband supports her in the creative process, offering male-centric insights while reviewing her photos. "He's so supportive," Richards said. "He knows what men love, and he'll go through all the photos and say, ‘This is good. Do this. This is what guys like.’"
Richards admitted she initially feared losing acting roles due to her association with the platform but found it to be the opposite. "When I joined OnlyFans, I was very concerned that I possibly could lose some jobs, but it was the opposite. I got more offers. I get roles where I'm like, the trophy wife or the sexy one."
The actress also debunked misconceptions about OnlyFans, emphasizing that she views it as a unique way to connect with fans. "People think that I'm just doing whatever—that's not true," Richards clarified. "I actually look at it as a way of communicating with fans, and not the way that you're thinking."
Meanwhile, Richards' daughter, Sami Sheen, has faced challenges with her modeling career due to her involvement with OnlyFans. Sami, 21, expressed frustration over the industry's double standards. "I've met with a couple agencies, and they don't like that I do OnlyFans. It's so frustrating because it's like, that's how I pay my rent. If you'll take me seriously, I won't have to do it anymore," she said.
Richards defended her daughter, applauding her courage and determination. "That's the shame of it," Richards lamented. "Why judge based on them trying to make a living while they're trying to pursue their career? I really am so proud of Sami. I wish I had her f---ing balls when I was her age." Sami responded with humor, saying, "Well, look who my f---ing family is. You guys are crazy. In a good way!"
The reality show Denise Richards & Her Wild Things offers a glimpse into the actress's life as a mother of three. Richards shares two daughters, Sami and Lola, with ex-husband Charlie Sheen and adopted her youngest daughter, Eloise, after their divorce.

OnlyFans turning into a career boon for Denise Richards is an eyebrow-raiser, especially with her husband acting as the creative director. The whole dynamic feels oddly wholesome, despite the platform's reputation. Also, Sami’s boldness in navigating Hollywood's hypocrisy is worth applauding—talk about a family unafraid to embrace unconventional paths!
