Waylon and Alabama: A Family Affair

Waylon, at just 13, along with his sister Alabama, 16, are de Matteo's children with her ex, Shooter Jennings. On the podcast, de Matteo discussed how she ensures her children are comfortable with her content, stating, “Are you okay with this?” She further explained the type of editing her son handles, noting, “Oh yeah. He’s like, ‘So what do you want me to do with the bikini line here?’”

De Matteo stressed that her children do not see all the content, especially the more provocative images, and she carefully reviews the material with them. She compared it to her acting career, mentioning she would rather portray intimate scenes with women in films than with men.

OnlyFans: A Family-Driven Decision

The decision to join OnlyFans was not solely hers, as de Matteo revealed that her children were the ones to encourage her. The actress shared that it was a necessary move due to financial changes, stating, “I used to have a lot of money. And then, all of a sudden, I went from being allowed to work to never being allowed to work again.”

Despite facing criticism for involving her children in her OnlyFans journey, de Matteo remains open about the process, highlighting the necessity behind her choice to enter the platform. The focus has shifted from her presence on OnlyFans to the unique way she incorporates her family into the business, sparking debate over the appropriateness of such involvement.
