Riley Reid, one of the most well-known women in the adult entertainment industry, has revealed an unexpected aspect of her past.
Reid is known for her open insights into her life and business, and her most recent revelation provides fans with a view into a more personal side.
Ashley Mathews, the adult star’s true name, has been in the industry since 2010, but her career has not been without challenges.
Reid, now a wife and mother, is entering a new chapter in her life, navigating the changes that come with her developing identity.
Speaking on the ”Shadow Banned” podcast, she discussed how her viewpoint has changed since starting a family.
“It’s been really fun; it’s definitely been a different identity process of me trying to figure out who this new version of myself is,” she joked.
She discussed reconciling her duty as a mother with her professional ventures.
Reid is presently one of OnlyFans’ best earners, with an estimated daily income of $25,000 (£19,900) and a net worth of over $19 million (£15 million).
However, her journey has not been simple. She decided to quit filming scenes with her male co-stars, which had a big impact on her dating life.
Reid stated on the ”What They Don’t Tell You” podcast how she was often “first in their minds as Riley.”
She described the difficulty of convincing people that she is “Ashley,” not just her onscreen image. These changes demonstrate how closely her career has tangled with her identity.
Reid has settled into her new life as a wife and mother, but she recently revealed the lighthearted way she used to pursue her crushes.
In an appearance on the ”Stiff Socks” podcast, she described how she used to try to get the attention of celebrities she admired by adopting a unique and unconventional way.
Reid admits to Photoshopping celebrity faces onto images from her p*rnographic scenes.
One such celebrity was DJ Dillon Francis, whom she stated she “wanted to hook up with so bad years ago.” Reid stated that she will mail the modified photographs with the caption, “Thinking about You.”
Despite her creative efforts, Reid admitted, “He was nice, but we never hung out or anything.”
Her amusing tactics provide a unique glimpse into how she managed her personal life while pursuing a high-profile career.
Reid’s life has become more solid, and she is facing new obstacles. She recently spoke out against online trolls who targeted her child.
In a video posted online, she expressed her anguish, urging people to “grow up” and stop making hurtful comments about her child.
Reid’s story evolves as she moves forward, emphasizing the complex balance of living in and out of the public eye.
