Widow of OnlyFans Founder Earns Over $500 Million in Dividends
Yekaterina Chudnovsky, widow of Leo Radvinsky, has received substantial dividends from Fenix International, the parent company of OnlyFans.
Yekaterina Chudnovsky, the widow of OnlyFans founder Leo Radvinsky, has received over £500 million in dividends from the platform's UK-based parent company, Fenix International. Chudnovsky inherited control of the company upon Radvinsky's death earlier this year.
Accounts for Fenix International reveal that a family trust controlling the company distributed approximately £530 million in dividends over a 16-month period, from November 2024 to March 2026. The company's revenue for the 12 months ending November 2025 reached £1.2 billion, an increase from £1.05 billion the previous year. Profit before tax also rose to £543 million from £513 million.
OnlyFans, founded in 2016 by British businessman Tim Stokely, was acquired by Radvinsky in 2019. The platform subsequently expanded to include adult content, which has been a significant driver of its growth. The number of subscribers, referred to as fan accounts, increased by 60 million between 2024 and 2025, reaching a total of 437 million. The platform currently hosts over 5 million creators.
In 2025, a total of £1.5 billion was paid out to creators, up from £1.3 billion in the preceding year. Radvinsky died of cancer in March at the age of 43. Chudnovsky, who was born in Ukraine and is a corporate lawyer based in Florida, is the sole controller of Fenix through the family trust.
The accounts also noted the licensing of OFTV content to Netflix UK, which has reportedly extended the platform's reach, although the specific content involved is not detailed. Chudnovsky and Radvinsky had four children together and maintained a private life.
Despite Fenix International being registered in the UK, Chudnovsky is not believed to have any direct ties to the country. The dividend payouts include £400 million in 2025 and an additional £130 million distributed in the period leading up to March of this year.
