Elsa Jean, an adult film star, had an unexpected way of her family discovering her career. Elsa, whose real name is Sapphire Nicole Howell, started her adult film career at 18 and quickly gained popularity on platforms like Pornhub.
She later joined OnlyFans, where she has gathered over a million likes. While some adult film stars openly share their careers with family, Elsa didn’t initially tell hers about her work.
However, her family found out in an unexpected way. Elsa shared this experience during a 2023 interview on the Holly Randall Unfiltered podcast. She explained, “I don’t know exactly how my mom found out, but it was probably through other family members. One of my uncles commented on my first scene on Pornhub, and that might have led my aunt to bring it up.”
This situation quickly made Elsa’s family aware of her adult film career. Despite the awkwardness, Elsa maintains a close relationship with her mother but keeps her job separate from their conversations. “I talk to my mom almost every day, but we never discuss porn or OnlyFans,” Elsa explained.
She added, “If I’m doing something I think she’d like, I would tell her, but I don’t talk about my job with her. It’s never come up.” Elsa also mentioned that she doesn’t bring up her work with her siblings.
Elsa recalled an embarrassing moment from her personal life. She shared, “When I lost my virginity, I wrote a journal entry about it. My mom wrote a note back, saying, ‘It’s okay, everything’s fine, I’m not upset.’ I was so embarrassed she knew, so I can’t imagine talking to her about porn.”
Since starting her career, Elsa has earned a substantial income. Her net worth is estimated between $1.5 million and $5.5 million. The adult industry has proven to be profitable, with stars like Bonnie Blue earning $200,000 a month.
