Missouri Substitute Teacher’s OnlyFans Income Surges After District Firing

Sheena Sittner, a 42-year-old substitute teacher in the Parkway School District near St. Louis, was removed from her assignments after the district discovered her OnlyFans account.

She maintains that the backlash intended to ruin her life has instead boosted her financial stability, allowing her to support her family more effectively than her previous job did.
