Denise Richards announced that she launched anOnlyFans account on Thursday.- Richards and
Charlie Sheen 's daughter, Sami, created her account on June 13.
Actress Denise Richards officially launched an OnlyFans account.
On Thursday, the former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star announced her OnlyFans account with an Instagram post.
"Ready…here we go," Richards, 51, wrote in the caption. An accompanying video showed Richards wearing a billowing white dress as she frolicked in the ocean. Richard's move to join the NSFW content subscription site came after her daughter, Sami, 18, created an account earlier this month.
Richards shared how excited she was on her OnlyFans account.
"Hey loves, so I'm trying to figure this site out," she shared on Thursday. "It's all new to me. I'm overwhelmed and grateful for all the love and support! I really enjoy connecting with you."
Representatives for Richards did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
Following news of Sami's account, Richards and Sami's father, Charlie Sheen, appeared to be at odds over their daughter's venture. Sheen and Richards wed in 2002 and filed for divorce three years later after the birth of their two daughters: Sami, and Lola Rose, 17.
In a statement sent to Insider via his publicist, Sheen said that he didn't "condone" the account and suggested Richards was at fault.
"I do not condone this, but since I'm unable to prevent it, I urged her to keep it classy, creative, and not sacrifice her integrity," he said in the statement, adding, "She is 18 years old now and living with her mother. This did not occur under my roof."
Richards later responded in a statement shared with People.
"All I can do as a parent is guide her and trust her judgment, but she makes her own choices," she said.
On June 18, Richards shared an Instagram post in which she defended Sami from online critics and suggested Sheen shouldn't be judgemental.
"Lots of negative comments on my social this past week. I have to say, I wish I had the confidence my 18 yr old daughter has," Richards, 51, wrote. "And I also can't be judgmental of her choices. I did 'Wild Things' & Playboy, quite frankly her father shouldn't be either."
Richards also applauded Sami's ability to navigate online hate and trolls 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," Richards wrote.
In September 2021, Sami claimed in a now-private TikTok that she was previously "trapped" in an "abusive household." Sami didn't clarify which household she was referring to, but People reported that she was living with Richards at the time.
Richards previously said that she and Sami had a "strained" relationship.
"It's very difficult," Richards told SiriusXM's Jeff Lewis Live in February 2022. "I know we'll get back to where we were eventually, but right now, it is strained," Richards told Lewis.
