A young woman says she makes a six-figure salary every month thanks to her multiple online boyfriends, but not everyone agrees with her lifestyle, and say they ‘feel sorry for’ her partner
Meet the couple who jet set around the world and have a wardrobe stacked with designer goods, thanks to one woman’s multiple virtual boyfriends.
Sharna Beckman, from Queensland, Australia, met her boyfriend Ricky in 2021 on the way home from a night out. But when the former dental assistant revealed what she does for work, her new partner was “unsure” – and his friends were quick to judge. The young woman claims she makes $1,000 Australian dollars [approximately £525] every 10 minutes that she spends with her long-list of online boyfriends – doing everything from telling them about her day, sending pictures, and having weekly calls.
“I started adult content creating in 2021 and made £70K in my first week,” Sharna told YouTube’s Love Don’t Judge. The OnlyFans content creator and social media influencer who had 43,700 Instagram followers on her page @sharnabeckman, admitted that balancing her real-world relationship with her business was tricky to begin with. She added: “We’ve had parts in our relationship where it has affected it. I would be spending too long messaging my online boyfriends.”
Speaking about her job, Sharna explained that her clients are often people who are nervous about real-life dating and prefer to chat to someone online. The young woman, who claims she makes “six-figures a month”, explained: “I guess these men have trouble with dating on the outside world and maybe feel a little bit nervous about actually going out and having to talk and go to dates with women.
“Some of the arrangements that I have with the online dating is the weekly calls with the boyfriends that I have, sending them daily voice notes, daily messages and photos of what I’m doing throughout the day.” While she enjoys her job, Sharna has been labelled as an “absolute tramp” and a “h**” by online haters.
Sharna says she does have some boundaries with her online boyfriends, out of respect for Ricky – who now helps her with lighting and photography for her content. She commented: “Where I draw the line would be when they try and asked me to meet up in real life – I don’t offer that service. It has affected parts of our relationship – when I would be spending too much time messaging my online boyfriends.”
“If I feel like she is spending too much time on her phone, I’ll let it be known,” Ricky added. The boyfriend, who lives with Sharna, was told not to date or trust Sharna by his friends. She said that people often say they “feel sorry for him”.
Speaking about his experience, Ricky said: “At the start when the girlfriend experience came on, I was pretty unsure about it. We ended up having a little fight about it and she gave me some reassurance and I became a bit more comfortable with it.”
He continued: “When we first got together I had a few group chats that I was in and a few of my friends called her a few nasty names. At the end of the day I choose to trust her.”
Ricky said his parents were also sceptical at the start of their relationship, but after seeing their relationship grow and their grand life together – from trips around the world to a wardrobe full of designer clothing, on the back of Sharna’s earnings – they got on board.
“They are excited seeing us travel around the world,” Sharna said. “And living our best life,” Ricky added. He added: “As long as we’ve got each other. It’s like having a best friend and a partner all in one.”
