OnlyFans Earnings
In recent years Brande has proudly earned significant income by posing nude on OnlyFans. Speaking to Fox Ness in 2024, she explained that she makes far more money today thanks to OnlyFans than she earned at the peak of her acting and modeling career.
"It's been great honestly. Me being a single mom of two boys with no financial support from their father, I have to take care of my family. And for me, my passion and love is acting and producing. So, in order for me to do that, I have, you know, my side job with OnlyFans, which helps to facilitate my other passion of acting and producing. So, for me, it's been really a wonderful outlet for me."
