A former teacher who was forced to quit her job after her OnlyFans was discovered claims she's been fired just days into her new job.
Brianna Coppage used to be an English teacher at St. Clair School in Saint Clair, Missouri, however, after her OnlyFans account came to light and she was placed on administrative leave in October 2023, she later resigned from her position.
And she's since spoken out about starting a new role.

Coppage says she first began OnlyFans as a way to support her household while only on a teacher's salary.
She told Fox News Digital: "I started it, one, to just supplement my income and kind of see what happens and possibly make extra money.
"Like, I have student loans. I was working on my third degree. So, I also have a master's degree in education, and then I was working on my specialist degree."
However, after her OnlyFans came to light at the school and she was placed on leave, she ultimately decided to resign.
The 28-year-old didn't do too badly after leaving her high school position, telling KMOV she went on to make $1 million from her OnlyFans after it became public, a staggering figure compared to her yearly teaching salary of $42,000.
So why has she tried to go back to a normal job?
Despite the cash rolling in, Coppage opened up to the outlet about it being 'tough' on her mental health 'not having to get up and go to a 9-to-5'.
So, with five years of teaching under her belt, she decided to try and transfer those skills and found a job as a community support specialist with Compass Health.
However, the role didn't turn out as Coppage hoped, the OnlyFans star telling KMOV she 'lasted five days' at her new job before the company allegedly 'put [her] on leave and subsequently fired [her]'.
She says gave the company her previous records of employment, but claims: "They admitted that they didn’t call my references or Google me before they hired me. They claim that I violated their social media policy, but will not respond to me with how I violated it."
UNILAD has contacted Compass Health for comment.
