Denise Richards followed in her daughter’s footsteps and joined OnlyFans in 2022
Denise Richards and her daughter, Sami Sheen, have one rule in place when it comes to their respective OnlyFans.
Richards, 54, joined the online platform in 2022, with her 20-year-old daughter, Sami Sheen, who’d joined the site the year prior.
Explaining her decision to join the platform, the actor had previously told KTLA that she’d heard of OnlyFans but wasn’t ‘educated’ on what the site actually was, adding: “Once I started to learn about it, I really think that the creators of the site really took the best of every platform of social media and put it into one site.”
Sami isn’t too bothered about her mum being on OnlyFans either, and both mother and daughter are supportive in each other’s endeavours on the site – even collaborating together in 2022.

However, there’s one rule that they both insist on sticking by.

Essentially, they do not go onto each other’s pages.
Speaking to PEOPLE in an exclusive interview, Sheen said: “No, that would be weird,” while Richards added: “Yes, we draw a line there.”
As for her reasons for joining the platform? Well, according to the creator, she wanted to ‘get an apartment’ and knew her job at a candy store wasn’t making big bucks, so she decided on ‘the next best thing’ which was OnlyFans.
Sheen continued: “It opened so many doors for me and I’ve met really cool people doing it, and it’s been really rewarding being my own boss and making my own hours and being able to do the things I’ve always wanted to do.
“I have a pretty structured routine now. It is just adding in different outfits or if my subscribers request specific things or I’ll talk to other girls or watch videos to get different ideas.”
Meanwhile, Richards also touched on her decision to join the adult platform, telling the outlet: “I really did it because I didn’t understand what OnlyFans was. I had heard of it… and when I saw that Sami was getting so much backlash, it really upset me as a mom and also as a woman in this business.”

When his daughter joined OnlyFans, the former Two and A Half Men star spoke out insisting that he didn’t condone her decision.
“She is 18 years old now and living with her mother. This did not occur under my roof.” he told US Weekly at the time.
“I do not condone this, but since I’m unable to prevent it, I urged her to keep it classy, creative and not sacrifice her integrity.”
Sami later spoke about the criticism she’d faced on TikTok, saying: “I am not a p-star. And I don’t meet up with people. I don’t film myself having sex. I don’t do that, but I also have no judgement towards the people do do that.
“That is just not my line of work and that is not something I’m comfortable with doing.”
Richards has also defended her daughter, writing on Instagram in 2022 that she ‘can’t be judgmental of her choices’ as she did ‘Wild Things & Playboy’, adding: “Quite frankly her father shouldn’t be either.”
