Riley Reid is a well-known porn star who recently spoke out about the challenges she faced in finding a partner who supported her career choice. Many of the men she dated outside of work were uncomfortable with her line of work, and some even gave her ultimatums between their relationship and her job.
In an interview on the Impaulsive podcast with Logan Paul, Reid revealed that one of her ex-boyfriends made her feel “disgusting” for being a sex worker. She shared, “He made me feel like maybe I should quit and stuff. So, like, [it] made me feel like a disgusting person. And I’m not disgusting. It’s harsh. It was so horrible when he told me that.”
Reid has previously spoken out about how hard it was to find a supportive and loving partner.
She wrote on Instagram in 2021, “Never have I ever had a boyfriend who was proud of my job. I’ve had two ‘normal’ boyfriends in my adult life, normal being they don’t do porn. Both of which ended in an ultimatum, porn or them. I always chose porn. I’ve struggled with the choice, though, wondering if I’ve made the right decision.”
Despite these struggles, Reid has found happiness with her husband Pasha Petkuns, whom she married in 2021. They are now raising their young daughter Emma together.
In a recent post on Instagram, Reid expressed her gratitude for her family, saying, “Forever thankful for my newly founded family. I love you and appreciate you endlessly, @pashatheboss. You’re such an amazing husband to me and an even better father to Emma. Thank you for choosing me as your wife, best friend & life partner. Thank you, Emma, for being the greatest thing to ever happen to me. I adore and love you more than you’ll ever know.”
In a previous report from Unilad, it was claimed that one of Reid’s previous boyfriends made her feel so bad about her career in the porn industry that she contemplated quitting her job for good. Last year, Reid talked more about that, saying: “My ex was so anti-porn, I almost quit porn because I thought I hated porn, but then I realized I just hated him.”
Reid’s story highlights the stigma and discrimination faced by those in the sex industry, even in their personal lives. It is important to recognize that sex work is a legitimate profession and that those who choose to work in this industry deserve respect and support. Reid’s journey also emphasizes the importance of finding a partner who accepts and loves you for who you are, regardless of your career or life choices.
Despite the challenges she faced in finding love, Riley Reid has found happiness and love with her husband and daughter. Her story is a reminder that no matter what obstacles we face in life, we can find happiness and fulfillment by staying true to ourselves and our passions.
