Actress and activist Shannon Elizabeth recently launched an OnlyFans account, and the massive success has her thinking about how she wants to spend her money. The actress, who has been in show business since the early ’90s, decided to take control of her own career, thus the pivot to the subscription service. Moreover, she’s entering a new chapter in life following a divorce.

Shannon Elizabeth Wants To Put Down Roots

In an exclusive video interview with Page Six’s Bernie Zilio, Shannon Elizabeth shared her plans for the future, starting with the one thing she hopes to purchase following her highly successful OnlyFans debut in April. The “American Pie” actress shared that she’s been living with her friends since her separation from Simon Borchert, whom she married in 2021.

While she still doesn’t know whether to rent or purchase a house, she’s sure that she wants to remain in South Africa, where she has been living since 2016. “So, my first thing is figuring out where I’m going to stay and get my own place again,” she shared, saying that all her items have been in storage since her separation in September last year.

The Actress Earned $1 Million On Her First Week On OF

Toward the end of April, just a week after the launch of her OnlyFans account, an insider revealed that the 52-year-old actress earned “more than seven figures” on the service. “She is super happy she now gets to take control and be engaged with her fans,” the source said, adding that her OnlyFans content does not include full nudity, as reported by PEOPLE.

Elizabeth confirmed her earnings in her conversation with Zilio. However, she says the money isn’t in her account just yet. While it may seem like a large amount, she says she will only get a fraction of it. “There’s splits that happen with various representatives and the platform itself,” explaining further that she might get half of the amount before taxes. “It’s not as crazy as it sounds, but it’s still astounding,” said Elizabeth.

Furthermore, she’s going on an upward trajectory and revealed her page is “growing every day.”

Shannon Elizabeth Talks About Her Divorce

Elizabeth was previously married to actor and writer Joseph Reitman from 2002 to 2005. In 2021, she married Simon Borchert. Following her announcement of her intention to join OnlyFans, it was reported that Elizabeth had just filed for divorce.

As the actress told Zilio, she and Borchert separated in September 2025 but only filed for divorce in April 2026 because they had to “do a settlement first.” She admitted to having a tough time navigating her new life, saying, “From September to the end of March, at least, it was really, really, really difficult.” Having to restart from scratch took an emotional toll on her, but once she signed the settlement, “the weight was lifted,” and she began moving forward to the next chapter of her life.

The Actress Is Leaving The Door Open On Acting

Elizabeth started her career as an actress and model in the ’90s, earning small roles in TV and film. It was in 1999 when she achieved commercial success with her breakout role as Nadia in the raunchy comedy, “American Pie.” In addition to returning for three other films in the “American Pie” franchise, she appeared in “Scary Movie,” “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back,” “Thirteen Ghosts,” and “Love Actually.”

Elizabeth said that she is still “absolutely” open to acting despite now being based in South Africa. “Filming is all over the world now, and people go everywhere for their projects, and I love acting,” she said, adding that she misses being on sets. With her new venture, she’s hoping to get more acting opportunities, but also wants to get into directing and producing.

Shannon Elizabeth Will Put OF Funds Toward Her Foundation

One of the reasons Elizabeth started an OF was not only to be closer to her fans and to control her career, but also to raise awareness of and funds for the Shannon Elizabeth Foundation. The actress has always been an animal lover, and in 2016, when she moved to South Africa, she decided to answer her calling.

The Shannon Elizabeth Foundation was launched in 2018 to preserve habitats, protect endangered species, support rangers, and find solutions for conservation issues. “I can allocate certain things that I’m doing on OnlyFans to all go to charity, so that’s what I’m going to be doing,” she shared.
