A couple with 53 years between them say joining OnlyFans has "spiced" up their marriage - despite loved ones saying they're "disgusting."
Gary, 24, and Almeda, 77, from Tennessee in the US, married in 2015 and joined the adult content platform in October 2020.
The couple, who own a business together, say they've made so much money from OnlyFans that they've been able to pay off debts, buy a new car and are even planning on buying a house next year.
Although they have no regrets about joining the platform, they claim their loved ones are less than impressed with how they make extra cash.

Gary said: "We’ve always had an excellent, stable marriage, so I wouldn’t say it has 'improved' our marriage, but making content for OnlyFans has definitely made our sex life a lot more spicy."
He added one of their family members first suggested the pair join the platform because of the "uniqueness" of the relationship.
"We’ve had mixed feedback from our family and friends about us creating content on OnlyFans – some people in our life said it was ‘disgusting’ and ‘wrong’.
"But we’ve never let the opinions of what others think of us effect what we do with our life.
"It’s our life to live, and we’re in full control of it."
The pair first met in 2015 at the funeral of Almeda's son, Robert. Gary, who was 17 at the time, had just split up with a 77-year-old.
But he immediately hit it off with then 71-year-old Almeda and just two weeks later, the pair tied the knot.
The marriage hasn't always been easy and they admit they've had to cut out people who don't support their relationship - but last October they celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary.
Gary said: "Married life is amazing, we have such amazing chemistry together.
"We enjoy anything that involves us getting to spend time together no matter what it is.
"She is my soulmate."
Almeda added: “I’ve always wanted to be a model, so it’s something that I enjoy and it came natural for me.
"What I enjoy the most is being able to create something special, romantic & intimate with my husband."
Gary and Almeda recently thanked their fans in an Instagram post for their support with the OnlyFans venture.
The post, which they shared with their 18,200 followers reads: "It’s something that we never had planned to do, but we both mutually decided to give it a shot and it has come with so much opportunity and success for us!
"Don’t let people try to tear you down and tell you that what you’re doing is wrong!"
They argued people criticise others regardless of the decisions they make - so you might as well do things that make you happy.
Despite those in their personal life not being supportive of their OnlyFans venture, Gary and Almeda have plenty of adoring fans online.
One Instagram user said: "Love you both so much I love all your content and you both are a inspiration to me I look forward to everything you post."
A second social media user commented: "A beautiful blessed couple. Showing true love. Don't stop inspiring xx."
