A former OnlyFans model, Sydney Ruiz, recently revealed in an interview that OnlyFans ruined her life. Sydney is a retired OnlyFans model from Texas and once earned $100,000 per year from the platform.
Sydney shared her journey about the online abuse, heartbreak, and emotional toll that came with her career and recovery. She began posting on the platform when she was just 18 years old to make fast money and quickly gained fame and financial success.
She earned $5K in her first month alone and soon climbed up to the rank, becoming the top 1% of content creators on the platform. But, the fame came with a price, she started getting abused online and got death threats and continuous degrading remarks.
Who is Sydney Ruiz?
Sydney Ruiz is a 24-year-old freelance writer and graphic designer from Dallas, Texas, who joined Onlyfans at the age of 18 years to make quick money. She became one of the top 1% of content creators on OnlyFans and earned $100K yearly.
Sydney Shares The Dark Side of OnlyFans
Sydney Ruiz recently mentioned in an interview how online fame destroyed her mental health and self-image completely. “At the peak of my OnlyFans career, I was so worried about my body. I feel like girls, who are freshly 18 should be wary about getting into the industry. I have self-esteem problems, I have body confidence issues. I feel that if I never got into the industry my life could be completely different – I would have confidence and not be afraid of men.”
Sydney Gets Pregnant With First Child
Sydney Ruiz became pregnant with her first child in May 2020. Sadly, after giving birth to the baby boy in January 2021, he passed away a month later from unknown causes. This tragic loss added to the huge pressure that she faced online. She said that men on Onlyfans would eroticize her pregnancy and ask disturbing questions.
She said: “I posted my pregnancy on social media and continued to post on OnlyFans until I started showing. People were sexualizing the fact I was pregnant, they were sexualizing my baby. I was being asked by men to breastfeed them.”
Sydney gave birth to a boy the next year in August 2022, but this time she kept her pregnancy secret and didn’t share details about it online. She said “It completely destroyed my mental health and self-esteem. I was so body-conscious and I was very skinny at the time. I feel like getting pregnant saved my life because I gained the weight I needed.”
The Abuse That Made Sydney Leave the Industry
Sydney also disclosed that she would often be called a whore and a slut and was even asked to die. “Men would never come up to you in the street and say what they say to you online. I was often called a slut or a whore and would be told to kill myself.
I have always gotten death threats. Men would expect things for free and when I said no I would be called a worthless whore and told to end my life.”
Sydney eventually decided to leave the industry as she didn’t have the time and energy to produce the content. She hated being looked at as an object and wasn’t willing to sacrifice her mental health for some money. She said that she isn’t anyone working in the industry but just decided to not continue anymore.
OnlyFans model and TikTok star Sophie Rain has said that the China-based i.e. TikTok won’t shut down completely in the U.S. She recently called out U.S. President Donald Trump for taking credit for TikTok’s survival.
She said TikTok won’t be banned completely in the U.S. because of the billions of users. A lot of people create content on it daily.

I never expected to do this… but screw it, full sending it off the bat 😤😤 I may be a virgin, but I’m not that innocent as you might think 😉.”
Why is TikTok Getting Banned in the U.S.?
The short-form video-hosting app TikTok has been under a nationwide ban in the U.S. since January 19, 2025. The reason behind this is that the government is concerned over potential user data collection of U.S. citizens.
President Donald Trump proposed a ban on the app in the year 2020. He viewed the app as a national security threat. He even signed an order that was later blocked by the court. But, in 2024, the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act was approved and signed by President Joe Biden.
After this, on 18 January 2025, the day before the deadline of the law, TikTok suspended its services in the United States. But, by 20th January, Trump signed an order that granted TikTok a 75-day extension before it is completely banned in the United States.
Why is Sophie Rain Confident About TikTok Not Getting Banned?
Sophie Rain herself has over 10 million followers on TikTok. She says “It is the app users, individuals, and businesses who create content on it 24/7 which is why it is saved for now. It’s because TikTok is too worshipped at this point to bite the dust.”
Is OnlyFans Also Getting Banned?
There are arguments about OnlyFans getting banned as they have adult content on their platform. Research says that OnlyFans allows the posting of illegal content, age verification methods are not good on the platform and children as young as 14 are being exploited on the site.

The company said the ban was necessary to comply with banking and payment processor policies. OnlyFans CEO Tim Stokely said that banking partners and payment providers pressured the company to ban any adult content on the platform.

What Did Katherine Ryan Said on Bonnie Blue’s World Record?
Katherine Ryan took to her Instagram stories and said “Your vagina is designed to have a baby, it can stretch and it goes back and that’s what’s great about it. There are double standards about men and women who choose to have sex with a lot of different people. They are fine with their d*** getting big and getting small. You’ve had so many boners that your d***, and the shaft of it has been engorged with blood so many times while you were having s*x that it’s now like an empty balloon sack, like a withered old empty condom when it’s flaccid.”
Katherine Ryan added “Like your b**** are on the floor sir, your d*** is like an elephant’s trunk. Like nobody shames them for that, but oh a woman has s*x for a living, and now her vagina’s floppy – guess what, like it just doesn’t go floppy.”
Katherine Ryan later showed her concern for Bonnie Blue and said “She had a weathered look not befitting her age. She’s 25, she’s beautiful, but there is sort of the look that I have now, you know there’s a certain weatheredness that comes from defeat and you’re meant to earn that as a woman over 40, she has that somehow at age 25.”
What Was Bonnie Blue’s Experience on the Challenge?
Bonnie shared a video on her social media in which she said “I am fine, I just feel like I have had a heavy day in the bedroom. Which is exactly what I have had. I think if it continued how it did for the first of 3 or 4 hours, I would have struggled.”
But, she later did reveal the toll of such a challenge. She revealed in a YouTube video posted on her channel that the men that she slept with were tested for “every STI” before being allowed to participate. They had to wear condoms to take part in her challenge.
She did admit that it had left her body with bruises and bite marks. She joined documentary maker Josh Lee Spooner in a video where she said “A number I am very proud of. You’ll think I’m joking, my family is so proud of what I do.”
She also admitted “I was expecting to feel more sore, you know if you do a really hard workout, the next day you feel a bit sore? I was expecting to wake up today needing to take painkillers but I actually haven’t whatsoever. And I’m the first to take painkillers. The thing that feels the most sore is my legs.”
She then revealed her legs which were covered in bruises and bite marks. She said “I think they’re fingerprints, to be honest. I’ve got bite marks. My legs feel the most sore, but apart from that, I’m ready for round two.”
Bonnie also said in a shocking confession “I say to them all the time – the dads, the husbands, the students – leave your mark on me. Bite me, make me yours for that amount of time. I enjoy it when they’ve left marks, whether it’s hand prints, bite marks, or bruises. I’m ok with that, I quite like it. It’s a bit of a turn on actually. Last night was the sorest I’ve ever felt but today I’m fine.”
Recently, Ukraine’s tax services discovered that Ukrainian OnlyFans stars have reported an income of Hr 326.1 million which is about $7.79 million from 2020 to 2022.
Ukrainian authorities had requested data from the U.K.’s tax service on earnings of their citizens on OnlyFans. They sent out about 4,429 requests to declare their income from the platform. Out of which only 451 people filed taxes. The filings displayed the total tax declarations of $1.5 million in personal income and military taxes.
Although OnlyFans is banned in the country because of the adult content, many residents still use it to earn money. Ukraine’s tax services also got a court order recently to pass details on the money earned by its citizens on some sites to a law enforcement agency, without specifying which one.
It was reported by several media outlets that Ukraine’s Bureau of Economic Security was given names of Ukrainians earning money on OnlyFans. They also started to search for Ukrainian OnlyFans stars and models and charged them with Article 301 which deals with the display of pornography.
Parliamentary Finance Committee Chair Danylo Hetmantsev reported on Telegram on 18 December 2024 that “This is very important money for the country in times of war, and we are grateful to the girls for their responsible attitude and contribution to victory. Failure to pay taxes on time should not result in prosecution, as long as the taxes are eventually paid. Law enforcement officials share this view.”
