Shannon Elizabeth is still learning the online content ropes after launching her OnlyFans career last month — and her account is evolving alongside her.
“It did very well in the first nine days,” Elizabeth, 52, explained on the Monday, May 18, episode of the “Pod Meets World” podcast, commenting on reports that she earned nearly $1 million during the first week her account was live.
When it comes to what fans can expect from her page, the American Pie actress confessed it’s still very fluid.
“Everybody asks, ‘Well, what are the boundaries?’ I’m still exploring that myself. I don’t know,” Elizabeth revealed. “I’ve only been doing this [for] less than a month. I’m constantly doing content. The more I do the content the more comfortable I get with myself and chatting with the fans.”
The Love Actually actress noted that she “didn’t expect the kind of response that we’ve gotten at all,” adding that she was just “hoping someone would show up.”
Now that fans have subscribed to Elizabeth’s OnlyFans page, she has been tinkering with what type of videos and photos to post. (OnlyFans is traditionally known for its adult-only content.)
“I’ve done everything from putting on a facemask and going to bed and getting up in the morning. Just content of my life,” Elizabeth explained.
She said that some of her videos have included “behind the scenes” snippets of her life, like, “Hanging out by myself and just thoughts in my head.”

“I’m doing everything I can to just share my day to day life so that fans feel like they’re there with me and they’re a part of it. And they get that inside scoop of what it’s like,” Elizabeth shared. “I even did a video of my actual workout with my trainer. This is what I’m doing. This is my life. So I’m doing a little of everything.”
News broke in April that Elizabeth, who currently resides in South Africa, was launching an OnlyFans account. That same month, reports surfaced that Elizabeth and husband Simon Borchert had filed for divorce.
Us Weekly confirmed in early April that Elizabeth and Borchert had quietly separated in fall 2025 after getting married in 2021. They finalized their divorce earlier this month.
“Today isn’t about the end of a marriage. There are moments in life when you realize that letting go can be exhilarating — that closing one chapter creates space for an entirely new one, and stepping into that feels incredibly liberating, Elizabeth told Us in a statement on May 11. “I’m embracing what comes next with a full heart and a renewed sense of purpose. I’ve never felt more inspired, more creative, or more connected to who I truly am.”
That same month, Elizabeth exclusively told Us that she envisions being “very busy” now that she is single.
“I envision this being, like, one of my best chapters,” she shared. “I want to be busy with projects. I want to be busy with my charity. I want everything to just grow and be successful.”

One of the businesses Elizabeth is working on at this time is her Shannon Elizabeth Foundation, which Borchert has helped her grow over the past few years and focuses on wildlife conservation.
“When I started my charity in the U.S., it was called Animal Avengers. It was a dog and cat rescue that I founded in 2001. And this charity is just the next evolution of that,” she told Us. “It’s the same nonprofit number. We just changed our mission.”
Elizabeth’s OnlyFans account is also on the top of her priority list — and a collab with Love Actually costar Denise Richards could be in the works.
Shannon Elizabeth is rewriting the script on her own terms and away from the Hollywood soundstage. The American Pie star is settling into what she calls one of her “best chapters,” splitting her time between her wildlife conservation work in South Africa, a fast-growing charity and a buzz-worthy new OnlyFans venture that has already shattered […]
“I reached out to Denise, actually,” Elizabeth told Us in May, noting that Richards, 55, has had her own account since 2022. “Denise has been really helpful. She’s talked me through the whole thing, and she recommended people that she worked with who helped to teach her. I’m sure sometime in the future, maybe we’ll do a collaboration together.”
Elizabeth added that while fans can subscribe to her account for free, if they pay the additional fees, they will get more access to her life.
“It’s a way to connect with the fans, which I absolutely love,” she continued. “Now I can actually share even more of what I’m doing out in the field, more of what I’m doing with my charity, more behind the scenes on set when I’m working. Anything that I’m doing now, I can share with them in a much more meaningful way.”
