MAFS' Ryan Gallagher loses thousands after major OnlyFans blunder

Less than a week after launching his account on OnlyFans, Married At First Sight's Ryan Gallagher has experienced the downside of the adult subscription-based platform.

A number of the reality star's explicit images and videos have already leaked from behind his paywall onto a notorious online sex forum, with one industry expert predicting this will result “in tens of thousands of dollars in lost revenue”.

Several images shared to the adult forum, which Yahoo Lifestyle will not name, show Ryan posing completely nude in the shower and holding his manhood - and have been viewed thousands of times.

The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star announced just a few days ago that he had signed up for OnlyFans, promoting himself as “an Aussie bloke with a big willy” and charging subscribers $15 a month to access his content.

As the majority of his first posts have now been stolen and shared online for free, there is less of an incentive for new users to subscribe.

Ryan’s decision to join OnlyFans came as a shock to many as he had recently announced his engagement to Olympic swimmer Emily Seebohm.

The couple met while filming The Challenge Australia together in Argentina last August and went public with their relationship in December.

Ryan announced their engagement on Instagram in March with a snap of himself and Emily showing off her huge ring alongside the caption, “Yeehaaa”.

Olivia Frazer reveals dark side of OnlyFans career

Ryan’s OnlyFans incident comes shortly after fellow MAFS star Olivia Frazer opened up to Yahoo Lifestyle about her lucrative career on the platform and revealed it isn’t as glamorous as some might think.

“I think the downside is people are very entitled, so I do get the occasional message where it's like, ‘show us p***y’ or ‘give me a sex tape’,” she shared. “And it’s like, I don't do that and I don't do that, so you gotta settle for what I’m providing. This is my account. Just because you pay $15 a month does not mean that you can expect that from me.”

Olivia, who made around $500,000 in her first five months on the site, said she initially decided to join OnlyFans to show off her large collection of lingerie but didn’t realise how soon she would have to adapt her content.

“When you sign up to OnlyFans thinking it’s just going to be lingerie photos and pretty tame, you get pretty pressured pretty quickly,” she shares.

“I think I was on it for like three days and I was like, oh I guess I've gotta show my boobs now because people wanted it. I was like, you’re paying money to be here so I guess I have to now. The pressure gets you.”
