Drea De Matteo Says 13-Year-Old Son Edits OnlyFans Photos
Drea de Matteo said her 13-year-old son, Waylon “Blackjack” Jennings, edits her OnlyFans photos, turning a family conversation into the sharpest point in her latest discussion of the platform. She made the remarks while revisiting how her children pushed her to join in the first place.
“Blackjack and Alabama. My kids are out there. I’m sorry guys. I’m really sorry. But they know,” she said on the Not Today, Pal podcast with Robert Iler and Jamie-Lynn Sigler. She added that her daughter Alabama also edits the pictures, and that she goes over the images with them before posting.
Waylon And Alabama
Jennings, 13, and Alabama, 16, are the two children de Matteo shares with her ex, Shooter Jennings. On the podcast, she said they do not see certain content and that she checks with them before anything goes out, asking, “Are you okay with this?”
“Oh yeah. He’s like, ‘So what do you want me to do with the bikini line here?’” she said, describing the kind of editing her son does. She also said, “No. But they don’t see the girl shots. But I do go over that with them before I ever put them out…I was like, ‘Are you okay with this?’ Because it’s like, if I were to do it in a movie, because I would make out with girls in movies all day long before I’d even make out with boys.”
OnlyFans And The Family Push
Last September, de Matteo said her children were the ones who told her to join OnlyFans. She said, “My kids were the ones that were like, ‘Do it.’ She’ll [Alabama] edit the pictures, too, because they want certain things that we haven't been able to do.”
She tied the move to money, saying, “I used to have a lot of money. And then, all of a sudden, I went from being allowed to work to never being allowed to work again. I was never the kind of actor that took jobs just to stay in the business. I literally took jobs to feed my family.”
Backlash Around Her Work
De Matteo, known from The Sopranos and Desperate Housewives, has already faced backlash over joining the platform, and her own comments have kept the focus on how much her children know about the work. That is the friction point now: she is presenting family involvement as part of the process, while critics are reacting to the fact that a 13-year-old is editing adult-content photos.
For de Matteo, the next discussion is not whether she is on the site; it is how openly she keeps blending family life with the business. The public argument has shifted from her decision to join OnlyFans to the way she says her children are involved in selecting and editing what she posts.
