Denise Richards has claimed her ex-husband Charlie Sheen has changed his mind after opposing their daughter's OnlyFans career once he saw how much money she was making.

The former couple share a 19-year-old daughter, Sami Sheen, who has been making a name for herself on the subscription site usually used to share adult content.

Charlie, 58, had initially been opposed to his teen daughter making a living on the site and had voiced his disapproval publicly.

While he was staunchly against it at the start, Denise, 52, claims he has now come around to the idea thanks to the fact Sami is making a killing on the platform.

Speaking to Bethenny Frankel on the Just B podcast, Denise revealed what it was that helped to change the protective dad's mind.

"He changed his tune when she bought a Mercedes and moved into a house," the former Playboy model explained.

Well, that'll do it!

She confirmed: "When she first did OnlyFans, he was not happy," adding that Sami "did not appreciate" how publicly the Two and a Half Men star had opposed her career move.

Charlie told Page Six in June last year: "She is 18 years old now and living with her mother. This did not occur under my roof.

"I do not condone this, but since I’m unable to prevent it, I urged her to keep it classy, creative, and not sacrifice her integrity."

Denise responded at the time: "Sami is 18, and this decision wasn’t based on whose house she lives in. All I can do as a parent is guide her and trust her judgment, but she makes her own choices."

She added that as a former Playboy model she would not judge her daughter for the choice, adding: "Quite frankly her father shouldn’t be either."

Although Sami describes herself as a sex worker, she has reportedly never posted full nudity on her account, which she opened just three months after turning 18.

Charlie admitted to Bustle that he'd initially had a "knee-jerk reaction" to finding out Sami had joined OnlyFans, saying: "I was just like, 'Oh, this can only go bad.'"

However, he revealed he came around to the idea as it would make Sami's experience much easier if her parents both supported her line of work.

"She’s doing this and it can only be a much more successful and pleasant experience with the support of myself, her mom, and others," he explained.

"I have to have confidence and just know in my heart that all of her virtues and all the wonderfulness that makes her, her, come with her. I believe her to be incorruptible."

Sami also told the publication that as well as the financial benefits, joining OnlyFans had also served to boost her self-esteem, adding: "I’ve never felt more confident in my body."
