An adult star's family discovered her career in a surprising manner.
Elsa Jean began her career in adult films at 18, rapidly gaining popularity on sites like Pornhub.
She later launched an OnlyFans account, which has amassed over a million likes.
While some adult performers are open with their families about their work, Elsa was not, but her family found out in a way she found unsettling.

Elsa, whose real name is Sapphire Nicole Howell, shared on the Holly Randall Unfiltered podcast in 2023: "I'm not sure how my mom found out, probably through other relatives.
"At the very start, which was really disturbing, one of my uncles left a comment on my debut scene on Pornhub."
"I think that's what got my aunt involved, and she might have been the one to reveal everything, though I'm not certain.
"But yes, they found out pretty fast."
Awkward.
Elsa described her close bond with her mother but made it clear that she avoids going into the details of her job with her.
Elsa Jean revealed the 'sick' way her family found out about her porn career.
"I speak with my mom nearly every day," said the 27-year-old. "But I steer clear of discussing porn or my OnlyFans with her."
Elsa added: "If I do something I think she'd enjoy, I'll certainly mention it, but I keep my work life very separate. She's never asked about it or brought it up.
"It's never come up as a topic of conversation with my family regarding my job."
The OnlyFans creator also avoids talking about her profession with her siblings.
Since beginning her career in adult entertainment, Elsa is believed to have earned a substantial amount of money.
According to Naija News, Elsa Jean's net worth might range from $1.5 million to $5.5 million.
It's well-known that the adult industry can be extremely lucrative, with some performers earning hundreds of thousands of dollars each month.
For instance, Bonnie Blue has claimed to earn a staggering $200,000 monthly, while Belle Delphine has stated she earned over $6 million from a single viral video.
In another example, Isla Moon matched her previous annual income in just 48 hours after launching her OnlyFans account.
