In all the backlash teen moms typically face, no one ever realized that being a “Teen Mom” could lead to a six-figure side hustle. Well, Jenelle Evans figured that out. She was recently in divorce court, which revealed her OnlyFans earnings, and let’s just say
—WHOA.
If you need a refresher on Jenelle Evans, here you go. She was one of the stars of MTV’s Teen Mom reality TV franchise, giving birth to her first child—a boy named Jace—at 16. If there was drama, she could be counted on to be in the thick of it: high-stakes custody battles, arrests, substance abuse, animal abuse, domestic violence accusations, and a very contentious relationship with her mother, who eventually won custody of her grandson. Her very public controversies kept audiences tuning in, eager to stay up-to-date on what she was getting into next.
Despite her public mishaps—or perhaps because of them—she managed to stay culturally relevant and has capitalized on the reputation she built for herself during Teen Mom 2. Jenelle Evans has carved out quite a living for herself as a content creator. She’s active on OnlyFans, TikTok, Facebook, and even recently received a paycheck from Teen Mom: Next Chapter. The pivot from reality TV to just… sharing her reality has been a lucrative one for Evans. From OnlyFans alone, she earned $16K in just a few weeks. Apparently, the exclusive content that her fans pay her for there makes MTV look like small potatoes. In recent months, she’s made over $44K from her various platforms, with OnlyFans definitely seeming to be her primary source of income.
How did all this come to light? Well, in yet more drama and scandal (as is her way), Jenelle is in the process of fully splitting from her ex-husband David Eason. She cites her new financial independence as the primary motivator for the split, and is demanding not only full custody of their daughter Ensley, but also the house they purchased together. With OnlyFans paying her bills, it makes sense she’d want the house—she needs it to run her channel. It’s a business decision.
Jenelle Evans is far from the first reality TV star to join OnlyFans. Blac Chyna, Megan Barton-Hanson, and Shannon Singh are just a few other names that reality TV devotees will recognize and follow simply because of their time in the reality limelight. Reality TV stars are now just one click away from capitalizing on their careers in a whole new way via the adults-only platform, even if it does come with a healthy dose of social stigma. For Jenelle, though? That’s just business as usual.
