The owner of OnlyFans, a site known for its adult content that is credited with revolutionising the online porn industry, has died at the age of 43.
Leonid Radvinsky, who was born in Ukraine and grew up in Chicago, had purchased the company in 2018 from its two UK-based founders.
The site’s popularity surged during the Covid-19 pandemic, landing him on Forbes’ annual list of billionaires just three years later.
He “passed away peacefully after a long battle with cancer,” OnlyFans confirmed in a statement, which asked for privacy for his family.



The multi billion dollar pharmaceutical industry and health insurance industry would fight ruthlessly against what you’re proposing, which we could absolutely do and probably fast.
There’s way more money in treating symptoms long term. Curing cancer is bad for business.
Hmm, I wonder why people like you never complain about the ‘wellness’ industry (homeopathic influencers, scam medicine pushers… etc) which is 5 times bigger than the the entire pharmaceutical industry…
Cuba has a cure for Alzheimer’s and we keep it contained there.
Hmmm. Hmmmmmm.
It’s OK gramps, let’s get you back to bed.
Clearly you haven’t experienced the US “healthcare” system.
Fortunately no.
Then you have no clue how much of a hellscape it can be. Save your insults for those who deserve it, not those who are suffering.
