Denise RichardsĀ has followed in her daughterā€™s footsteps.

The 51-year-old actress took to Instagram on Thursday to announce the launch of herĀ OnlyFansĀ account. Richards shared the news about a week after herĀ 18-year-old daughter, SamiĀ Sheen, joined the controversial platform.

ā€œItā€™s summer!!! My favorite time of yearšŸ’«ā˜€ļøšŸ,ā€ Richards wrote. ā€œChatting with all of you on #onlyfans right now. I personally will answer all of your messages. Link in bio.ā€

Though she didnā€™t specify what kind of content she would post, Richards is charging subscribers $25 a month to view her uploadsā€”about $5 more than what Sami is charging. Richards is also offeringĀ a three-month bundle for $67.50, which amounts to a 10 percent discount. As of press time, sheā€™s only shared two posts.

Immediately after Samiā€™s OF debut, her father,Ā Charlie Sheen, expressed his objections. The actor, who was married to Richards between 2002-2006, suggested Sami shouldn't have joined theĀ subscription-based site, which is mostly known forĀ sexually explicit content.

ā€œShe is 18 years old now and living with her mother,ā€ Sheen told Page Six.Ā ā€œThis did not occur under my roof. I do not condone this, but since Iā€™m unable to prevent it, I urged her to keep it classy, creative and not sacrifice her integrity.ā€

Richards shared a subsequentĀ Instagram post defending her daughterā€™s decision.

ā€œā€¦ I wish I had the confidence my 18 yr old daughter has. And I also canā€™t be judgmental of her choices,ā€Ā she wrote. ā€œI did Wild Things & Playboy, quite frankly her father shouldnā€™t be either.Ā And to be able to ignore the negativity at her age? It took me many years & I still sometimes struggle. Iā€™m in awe of her ability to be able to shut out the noise. Because it can destroy you.ā€

She continued: ā€œIā€™m sorry, but shitĀ if I can get paid and at my age? To see me in a bikini?!? God bless you. Perhaps I should open my own account.ā€

Sheen has since changed his tune on the matter, admitting his ex-wife ā€œilluminated a variety of salient points, that in my haste, I overlooked and dismissed.ā€
