Leah McSweeney stated that she earns more from OnlyFans than from “The Real Housewives of New York City”.
“I’m making a lot of money, which is amazing,” the former Bravolebrity, 41, boasted on Thursday’s episode of the “Sofia with an F” podcast.
Host Sofia Franklyn asked McSweeney if she “made more on OnlyFans weekly than on the show,” to which the former “housewife” simply responded, “Of course.”
“A week is a multiple season,” McSweeney stated before questioning, “Why didn’t I do OnlyFans sooner?!”
The former reality TV star explained that most of her content on the adult site is “cute” but “even funnier.”
“I love OnlyFans,” she raved. “This is good. This is a great platform where people are not censored. They don’t have ads in your face continually. They don’t have unfavorable algorithms to push the bulls. I really feel supported. I’m getting money. I feel supported. specific. It’s fun. I find it irresistible. I’m being inventive with this. It’s awesome.
McSweeney was also excited about collaborating with “Sopranos” star Drea de Matteo on the subscription-based platform — which she promoted on her Instagram — and becoming friends as a result.
“Now she is my friend. Like what? Like, are you kidding me? She is the best and best person I have ever met,” she shared. “She is so superior. She has been so supportive and so sweet. She is a woman’s woman. She’s a despondent bitch. I fucking love her.
Although the “Actual Housewives Final Ladies Journey” alum loves OnlyFans now, she confessed to having “hesitations” when she joined in October 2023 and asked, “What will people say?”
Since then, McSweeney has been able to shake off his haters and “laugh” at them.
“People thought my butt was there, but it wasn’t. People were like, ‘Leah is promoting pictures of her ass for $5.’ I laughed so hard at that, because it’s not true,” she said with a laugh.
The Married to the Mob founder hasn’t revealed how much money she’s invested or how many subscribers she has, but she charges $10 a month.
Page Six previously reported that McSweeney earned $3,000 per episode on her first season of “RHONY” before earning up to $10,000 per episode on her second and final season.
Season 12 had 25 episodes and Season 13 had 18, so she earned around $75,000 and $180,000, respectively, for a mixed total of $255,000 during her stint on the Bravo reality series.
McSweeney also starred in the third season of “Final Women Journey,” but it’s unclear how much she earned from the Peacock spinoff.
A representative for Bravo did not respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
After being fired by Bravo, McSweeney filed a bombshell lawsuit against Community in February and accused executive producer Andy Cohen of doing cocaine with his favorite “Housewives.”
A representative for Cohen denied the allegations, calling them “completely false.”

In her lawsuit, McSweeney claimed that Bravo “thrives on drug and alcohol use” and that its programs are “run by people who create a dangerous work environment, encourage substance abuse to artificially create drama, and cynically take advantage of vulnerabilities of your employees. ”
Cohen’s lawyer fired back at the clothing store with an authoritative letter stating that his lawsuit was “plagued by false, offensive and defamatory statements.”
“Mr. Cohen has never used cocaine with any cast member of any ‘Actual Housewives’ show or with any other Bravo employee,” his attorney, Orin Snyder, wrote in the letter, seen by Page Six earlier this month.
“We demand that you simply issue an instant public retraction and apologize to Mr. Cohen. Each day you fail to act will only increase the harm suffered by Mr. Cohen.”
McSweeney’s attorney, Sarah M. Matz, quickly responded, telling us that Cohen is “accustomed to using his power in the media to scare and intimidate people like Ms. McSweeney.”
