90 Day Fiancé: What Stephanie Matto Does For A Living

Erika Owens and Stephanie Matto’s 90 Day Fiancé relationship was truly one of a kind. Stephanie, 30, had kept her bisexuality a secret from her family all her life, and her love with Erika from Australia was new. The 90 Day Fiancé franchise’s first same-sex couple met for the first time on the show and went kaput by the final episode. But Stephanie who was introduced as a YouTuber on the TLC show still continues to make headlines. Here’s everything to know about what 90 Day Fiancé does for a job, apart from creating videos for YouTube.

Erika, 24, a photographer from Port Augusta, Australia had met Stephanie on Instagram after becoming a fan of her online persona. The Yonkers, New York resident Stephanie, otherwise known as Stepanka had been in love with Erica for a year before their TLC debut. Stephanie also revealed on the show that her suffering from aplastic anemia was life-threatening enough to make her die from a common cold, but she still flew to Australia. But Stephanie hiding her bisexuality from her family, and her evident lack of chemistry with Erika throughout the season made many fans doubt her honesty. The 90 Day Fiancé couple may not be on talking terms anymore but they’ve gained massive popularity on social media. However, Stephanie still gets called out by fans who want to know about her sources of income.

Originally from a small town in the Czech Republic, the 90 Day Fiancé star talks about making a living by creating content for her YouTube channel on episode 1. Stephanie dabbles upon a range of topics like life experiences, travel, fashion, “and a million different things.” The influencer who’d moved to New York with her mother Magda at the age of seven felt like an outcast due to her initial language barrier. But uploading videos helped Stephanie stop “feeling so alone.” Stephanie now has a total of 374,000 subscribers with 772 uploaded videos. Her latest upload is a “sexy fall try-on” haul from her 30th birthday and an earlier one shows the TLC star get chin liposuction. Since her 90 Day Fiancé debut, Stephanie has updated her Instagram bio to, “YouTuber, author, Martha Stewart of OnlyFans.” Her Instagram too boasts of a huge following of 259,000 fans and the book Stephanie is referring to here is “a compilation of her most outrageous, hideous and embarrassing stories” from 2015 called Mean Boys & Memories.

According to BlastingNews when a curious fan had alleged that Stephanie is still supported by her parents financially, the 90 Day Fiancé celeb had replied, “that her parents had not spent any money on her since she was 21 years old, the time she moved out.” But Stephanie soon confirmed that she’d worked as a stripper for about six months when she was 24. “When I was 24 years old, I saved 10 grand, packed my bags, and moved to Los Angeles with hopes of becoming an actress. 6 months later I was working as a stripper at a gentlemen’s club called The Palms in Signal Hill,” wrote the reality TV celeb. The job scarred Stephanie after which she “sought healing by investing time” in her book. However, Stephanie now runs a successful OnlyFans account that’s put her in the top 0.05 percent of earners. The 90 Day Fiancé alum claims that unlike her co-cast members, she has an OnlyFans since 2016. “I have been on both Patreon and OnlyFans for a total of almost four years and have bought a home, cars, and been able to do all of that from home on MY time,” wrote Stephanie who raised eyebrows by buying a  house in June and a 2020 Porsche Panamera in July.

In August, Stephanie shared a screenshot of her OnlyFans earnings to prove to her haters that she’s “not full of sh*t or trying to sell a lie.” Soap Dirt reports, the 90 Day Fiancé star’s earnings from 1 August to 14 August were a whopping $33842.80 as per the screenshot. With a monthly fee of $10 for “boudoir photography, sexy clips, and extra content!” Stephanie had earned $10k with subscriptions and more than $23k from messages.

Considering Stephanie has also started coaching others who want to make the same career move as hers, her earnings can only be seen doubling down. 90 Day Fiancé is known to make stars out of everyday people, but perhaps being an influencer beforehand is always better for business.

90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? airs Sunday at 8pm EST on TLC.
