Donna D’Errico is known for her sizzling performance on Baywatch as Donna Marco. She is a model who utilizes her looks on OnlyFans and she is a devout Roman Catholic. These identities have put her in a unique position as she reconciles the two, and recently D’Errico explained how she grapples with what she does online in relation to the faith she exhibits every Sunday.
OnlyFans is an internet-based subscription service that can and does host all types of content, from fitness instruction to music lessons to – most infamously – sex workers and pornographic posing. D’Errico started an account to pose sensually there and posed nude for a PETA campaign. She has a complicated yet confident relationship with the work she does, especially in the context of her faith. Here’s how things work out.

Outside her Baywatch fame, D’Errico is a devoted Roman Catholic, a vegan, and an animal rights supporter. Each night, she prays the Rosary with her children, and she attends weekly Mass. While she’s found comfort in faith, D’Errico, now
, has also found renewed confidence in her body thanks to her OnlyFans, enough so that she comfortably posed nude for a PETA campaign.RELATED: ‘Baywatch’ Alum Donna D’Errico Slams Critics After Bikini Post Called ‘Raunchy’
But how does that synergize with her faith? Regarding PETA, she said she was happy to pose nude for a cause she believed in so greatly. As for the rest, D’Errico wants to simply feel happy and content in her own body.
“I’ll be honest … I get conflicted sometimes,” admitted D’Errico, “but, I mean, I’m not doing anything. I’m not doing porn, I’m not sleeping around, I’m not doing anything with anyone period. I’m having fun. I’m not hurting anyone.”
D’Errico plans to continue with confidence
D’Errico continued, “Is it considered sinful if I asked my priest, ‘Is it OK if I do this?’ He would say, ‘Yeah, It’s not okay.’ But I’ve found my peace.” She further noted, “I feel like, as women, we can be all of the above. We don’t have to just be the OnlyFans girls, or just the super elegant, classy girl that dresses in a demure way — you can be everything.”
“I like simple things, I like being sexy,” she added. “I like being nude and walking around my house nude, but I also like dressing up in a really sweet, elegant way. All women can encompass all of those things if they want to.”
Indeed, OnlyFans has helped D’Errico get in touch with what she wants for herself. “I was comfortable with my body before, but I’ve gotten a lot more comfortable now after having found OnlyFans,” she explained, “because, unlike Instagram and some other social media where there’s a lot of censorship, censoring and bullying, on OnlyFans it’s not like that. I feel a lot more comfortable with my nude self around people than I did before.”
D’Errico also believes that OnlyFans has become more mainstream enough that the public no longer sees it as associated only with sex work. “I think people are starting to get that now, just sort of starting to. There’s a ton of celebrities on there now,” said D’Errico. “And you know, I know that people associate OnlyFans with porn, and I know that … for a long period of time was the primary thing that was going on on there. But just because you’re on OnlyFans doesn’t mean you’re doing it.”
