Leonid Radvinsky, billionaire owner of OnlyFans, has died at age 43 from cancer. According to OnlyFans' statement and sources, Radvinsky died on March 20, 2026, though the public announcement came days later. The company said, 'He passed away peacefully, with his family requesting privacy.' Sources indicate that insiders knew of his health issues and the company was prepared for his death, while the public was less aware. The specific medical details of his cancer battle and treatment have not been disclosed.
Sources indicate Radvinsky was born in Odesa in 1982 or 1983, emigrated to Chicago as a child, graduated from Northwestern University in 2002, and was based in Florida. He founded MyFreeCams in 2004 and acquired a 75% stake in OnlyFans' parent company in 2018. According to sources, Radvinsky revolutionized the porn industry by allowing creators to keep 80% of revenues on OnlyFans. Adult creator Sophie Rain credited him for changing her life, earning $95 million from 2023-2025, saying, 'He changed my life.'

Sources report that Radvinsky and his wife, Yekaterina 'Katie' Chudnovsky, were major donors to medical causes, including a $23 million cancer research grant in 2024, and he donated to Ukraine relief. He operated a venture capital fund called 'Leo' and was involved in early websites claiming to provide 'illegal' passwords to porn sites, though Forbes reported no evidence of actual illegal content on these websites. Microsoft sued Radvinsky in 2004 for deceptive emails, but sources say the case was dismissed.
