Couple move kids out of school after 'backlash' to £30,000-a-month OnlyFans career

A family moved to a six-acre farm after the mum started being banned from events in her town having appeared on OnlyFans. Sara Blake, 31, began sharing explicit videos and pictures on the website with husband Matt Cheek, 38, in November 2020.

It led to the couple making £30,000 a month - but the family say they were soon treated differently in their community. Now, the couple have moved out of town and are home-schooling their children to avoid judgement over their million-dollar career.

While they were heartbroken about the 'backlash', Sara insists the couple have 'no regrets' about their OnlyFans career, and she hopes to inspire others to feel empowered in their own bodies. Sara said: "I was devastated.

“I’ve always felt very comfortable with my sexuality and if people want to pay to see that, why wouldn’t I let them? I want to inspire other women who love sex. I love it and enjoy it. I don't view it as anything bad."

In May 2022, the family moved away to live a rural life on a farm and home school their children - Chandler, 10, Camden, nine, Corey, seven and Carson, three. Sara says the move followed a rift that started when she was banned from events in her town, which she alleges was over her work.

“I broke down and cried," Sara said. Her family still attended, but Matt claims he felt threatened, and people called his wife derogatory names.

Despite her husband appearing on OnlyFans too, Sara claims all the hatred has been directed towards her. They have since moved to live on a six-acre farm five miles down the road and home-school their children.

Sara added: "Matt will take the kids of a field trip or we wait until they're asleep and make content at night. We spend about six hours a day creating content.

“We have made it a positive experience for them. My career has evolved beyond OnlyFans and I have worked alongside ESPN radio and I get to interview footballers. You have to take something negative and make it positive."

The model is as honest as she can be with her children, they know she does ‘sexy’ modelling but are too young to know about the sexually explicit stuff. "I have always felt like it is important for me to be honest with them, to build that trust relationship," Sara said. "When they’re older I will explain things to them.”

Sara hopes to continue growing in the sports industry. She added: “I have been bullied and discriminated against because of my career. What I do doesn’t affect others."

Sara says she works non-stop for 20 hours a day and has made over one million dollars this year alone. "I want to tell other women to not ever give up and be confident in themselves, you are who defines your worth and value," she said. "I want to make a difference to the world for women who love sex.”

The content creator would never enter the porn industry and only makes ‘point-of-view’ content with her husband. Before embarking on her OnlyFans career, she owned two salons and was second runner up in Mrs Kansas a beauty pageant.

“I’ve worked my way up and used my platform to make a difference to all women to be confident in their sexuality," she said. "I’ve overcome a lot. I will continue to be a driving force in this industry. I want to be an example for other mums so they can embrace what they are.

“We don’t get a handbook when it comes to motherhood - it’s okay to write your own. I don't have any friends, we are alone and we haven't felt any support. I felt confused and it made me mad. I'm ok with being talked about but people should have that conversation behind your closed doors. I feel so lonely and isolated."
