But in 2022, Richards took a different path and decided to join the content subscription platform OnlyFans, diving into the world of independent digital content creation.<\/p>\n<p>The 54-year-old actress was encouraged by her daughter Sami, whom she shares with actor Charlie Sheen. Sami joined the platform at 18 and found success. Seeing how financially rewarding it could be, Richards followed suit. Just a few years later, she\u2019s now among the platform\u2019s most popular creators.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article_image_wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.tbdcdn.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/27\/107754-thatviralfeed.com-large-601615.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"article_image_credits\"><span class=\"article_image_credits_caption\">Denise Richards is in the top 1% of OnlyFans creators<\/span><span class=\"article_image_credits_credits\">Paul Archuleta\/Getty Images for ABA<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<section class=\"ad_outer_main\">\n<div class=\"ad_outer_sw\">\n<div class=\"ad_outer_sub\">\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"atd_pages\">\n<article class=\"atd\">In the March 25 episode of her series\u00a0<em>Denise Richards &amp; Her Wild Things<\/em>, she shared:\u00a0<em>&#8220;I will say that I&#8217;m in the top one percent of creators on OnlyFans, so I am very grateful. It&#8217;s very empowering, especially for someone my age, that people still want to see me that way.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Richards also talked about how much help she receives from her husband, Phypers, whom she married back in 2018. He\u2019s very involved behind the scenes, often helping her by taking photos for her OnlyFans. She added:\u00a0<em>&#8220;He&#8217;s so supportive. He knows what men love, and he&#8217;ll go through all the photos and say, &#8216;This is good. Do this. This is what guys like&#8217;.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Even with her husband\u2019s full support, Richards admitted she was nervous at first. She feared joining the platform might affect her acting career in a negative way.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<section class=\"ad_outer_main\">\n<div class=\"ad_outer_sw\">\n<div class=\"ad_outer_sub\">\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"atd_pages\">\n<article class=\"atd\">But as it turns out, the opposite happened.<\/p>\n<p>She went on to say:\u00a0<em>&#8220;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&#8217;m like, the trophy wife or the sexy one.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, not everyone has had the same experience. Richards noted that her daughter Sami has had a tougher time, facing more challenges and judgment because of her decision to join OnlyFans.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article_image_wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.tbdcdn.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/27\/107754-thatviralfeed.com-large-601616.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"article_image_credits\"><span class=\"article_image_credits_caption\">Phypers is supportive of Richards&#8217; OnlyFans<\/span><span class=\"article_image_credits_credits\">Charles Sykes\/Bravo\/NBCU Photo Bank\/NBCUniversal via Getty Images<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<section class=\"ad_outer_main\">\n<div class=\"ad_outer_sw\">\n<div class=\"ad_outer_sub\">\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"atd_pages\">\n<article class=\"atd\">During the episode, Richards explained further:\u00a0<em>&#8220;I really want to get headshots done to transition into modeling.
