EXCLUSIVE: Controversial MAFS Star Reveals Why They Left OnlyFans After Putting Over $100,000 On The Website
Married At First Sight groom Daniel Holmes has decided to quit adult subscription site OnlyFans after making more than $100,000 in just nine months.
The 31-year-old TV groom shared the news with his followers on Instagram stories on Tuesday evening, explaining that he has deactivated his OnlyFans profile.
Holmes initially joined the platform to take advantage of the increased attention following his appearance on the Channel Nine dating show last year.
“I just did it for a quick bag [of cash]. I knew if I came off MAFS there would be a big influx of eyes, so I just took advantage of that,” he told Daily Mail Australia on Wednesday.
Holmes further clarified that although he made more than $100,000 from the website, being on OnlyFans didn’t align with his long-term goals or personal identity.

“It’s not really my identity or anything I would see a long-term purpose in,” he added.
The decision to leave OnlyFans marks a major shift for the personal trainer, who had previously earned a stable income through the platform.
It comes just weeks after Holmes admitted he “regretted” getting the Covid-19 vaccine so he could appear on last year’s season.
Daniel initially said he would “never” get the jab, but his tone changed when MAFS producers imposed a vaccine mandate on all cast members.

Now, nearly two years after getting the shot with no adverse side effects, Daniel says he wishes he hadn’t agreed to roll up his sleeves.
He wrote on Instagram on April 13, “I really wish I never got the shot. Oh well, too late now, but certainly sorry.’
Endemol Shine, the production company behind MAFS, had required all cast and crew to be fully vaccinated while filming season nine in late 2021.

About a month before embarking on the experiment as an intruder, Holmes had shared a fiery Facebook post claiming he would never get the Covid shot because it took away his “liberties.”
“They will have to tie me up before I get vaccinated,” the Brisbane resident wrote in the now-deleted post on Sept. 25, 2021.
‘Not because I don’t believe in it, but because if I don’t, they’ll take my freedoms away. It is the oldest entry in the sales ledger. Get the prospect to say yes and they’ll be easier to convert,” he added.
But as soon as Holmes was cast on Married At First Sight in October 2021, he promptly agreed to get both Covid-19 shots.
