Australian adult content creator Emily Mai, who once dazzled as a stripper, has unveiled her astonishing earnings journey on OnlyFans. The 35-year-old mother-of-two, based in Melbourne, discovered an unexpected niche – pregnancy fetishes – which transformed her online presence into a roaring financial success. "I became a creator because I knew that I would become a mum one day, and I wanted to have the flexibility to work around my kids' schedules," she candidly shared.
While expecting her first child, Emily noticed a decline in followers but found favor with a unique group she dubs "pregnancy guys." These fans not only remained loyal but also upped their generosity, treating her to flowers and food hampers. "Some subscribers role-played as my partner – like we were in a long-distance relationship," she explained. Simple video calls, like rubbing her pregnant belly, earned Emily AU$14,710 collectively, with some fans dishing out over AU$3,000 for a single call.
“I went from making AU$758 to AU$4,549 a month to making AU$30,329 to AU$60,659 a month while pregnant,” Emily revealed.
Despite the substantial income from her pregnancy content, Emily emphasizes it's not just about the money. As a dedicated single mother to a two-year-old and a five-year-old, she believes her unique career makes her a better parent. "I tick all the boxes of what it takes to be a good parent. But because of the way I make money – my legal way of making money – I'm criticized," she remarked.
Emily's career allows her to tailor her work schedule around her children's lives, ensuring she never misses pickups, drop-offs, or school events. Her structured day includes a balance of family time and online engagement, highlighting her commitment to her kids’ upbringing. "If they're sick, they stay home, and I'll skip work that day," she noted, emphasizing the importance of being present for her children.
Despite her professional success, Emily faces criticism from fellow parents who judge her career choice. "Some mums found out that I did OnlyFans and it became the biggest drama," she recalls, acknowledging the social challenges. However, Emily remains unapologetic and discreet to shield her children from negativity. "Being a good parent isn't about what you do for work – it's about how much love, time, and attention you give your kids," she firmly stated.
