Denise Richards is opening up about the realization that her 18-year-old daughter has an Only Fans account. Richards decided to speak out after seeing a lot of negative comments on her social media accounts over the last week.
In her statement, Richards defended her daughter and her decisions, saying she “wishes I had the confidence my 18-year-old daughter has. And I also can’t be judgmental of her choices.

Richards brought up her time on Playboy. “I did Wild Things & Playboy, quite frankly her father shouldn’t be either,” Richards added referring to his original statement which cast blame on Richards for his daughter’s decision.
“And to be able to ignore the negativity at her age? It took me many years & I still sometimes struggle. I’m in awe of her ability to be able to shut out the noise. Because it can destroy you.”
“Is it so bad to control it & monetize it too? I’m sorry, but s— if I can get paid and at my age? To see me in a bikini?!? God bless you. Perhaps I should open my own account,” Richards continued.
As Mamas Uncut previously reported, Sami Sheen is the oldest of the two children actors Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards share. Denise and Sami haven’t always seen eye-to-eye and Sami has spoken out publicly about her and her mother’s differences.
Back in September 2021, Sami claimed her mom ran an “abusive household.” As Page Six reported at the time, Sami took to TikTok to talk about moving out of her mom’s home at the age of 17.
Sami went to live with her father Charlie, saying that felt “trapped” in her mother’s home. Sami added that she “finally moved out of the hell house, had a spiritual awakening, own 2 cats, happy, single, full of self-love, and dropped out of high school.”
In response to the claims that she had moved in with her dad, Charlie Sheen issued a statement confirming those claims. “Sam is amazing. I love her and all my children unconditionally. We’re having a ball. GED here we come.”
Additionally, a source close to Denise said it was Sami who was “being defiant” and that the rules Denise set for her kids were “normal rules that any parent would be setting.” Although, Denise has admitted to being a strict parent.
“She’s a mom and a parent and there are rules. [Sami] didn’t want to follow the rules.“Charlie didn’t support implementing Denise’s rules. He has a different way of parenting and Sami decided to live with her dad,” the source claimed at the time.
In a past interview, Denise revealed that she “doesn’t just let her daughters ‘do whatever they want.’” And that her rules have consequences if they are not followed.
Charlie Sheen has already spoken out against Denise after learning their daughter has an OnlyFans account. OnlyFans is a website that hosts adult content for a price.
In an interview with Page Six, Sheen revealed that his daughter no longer lives with him. It’s unclear when Sami moved back in with Richards.
“She is 18 years old now and living with her mother. This did not occur under my roof,” Charlie explained. “I do not condone this, but since I’m unable to prevent it, I urged her to keep it classy, and creative and not sacrifice her integrity.”
In the past, Richards has revealed that she was honest with her children about her past spread in Playboy Magazine. Now, it seems as though Richards is now choosing to respect her daughter’s decisions as well.
“Sami is 18, and this decision wasn’t based on whose house she lives in. All I can do as a parent is guide her and trust her judgment, but she makes her own choices,” Denise told Page Six.
It’s believed Sami has only just started her account on OnlyFans. Sami has not issued her own statement on the matter as of June 14.
