Breakup of OnlyFans Star and YouTuber After Viral Wedding Controversy

The relationship between OnlyFans influencer McKinley Richardson and YouTuber Jack Doherty, which captivated followers with its quick onset in early 2023, has ended following a highly controversial wedding spectacle in Las Vegas. The event, intended as playful, soured due to Doherty's shocking vows which included clauses like Richardson owing him $10 million if she cheated, and his claim to keep 100% of her OnlyFans earnings if they divorced.

Emotional Toll and Public Reactions

Richardson discussed the emotional impact of the wedding on a podcast hosted by Camilla Araujo, revealing the humiliation felt by her and her family. The incident not only caused her father to weep but also brought significant embarrassment to Richardson herself. The wedding, though initially a stunt, led to genuine emotional distress for those involved.

The wedding video spread rapidly online, becoming a viral topic and sparking widespread criticism over Doherty's demeaning vows. Social media users and influencers alike condemned the event, highlighting the problematic aspects of influencer culture where personal lives are exploited for online viewership.

Reflecting on Influencer Culture and Personal Strains

During a May 2025 appearance on the George Janko Show, Doherty reflected on the couple's relationship and breakup. He acknowledged the complex intermingling of their personal and professional lives, admitting that the publicity and pace of their relationship contributed to its difficulties. Despite the challenges, Doherty regretted how the relationship unfolded, emphasizing its genuine beginnings.

In the aftermath of the failed marriage, both Doherty and Richardson continue to pursue their careers independently. The impact of their brief but public union lingers as a significant comment on the interplay between internet fame and personal relationships. One observer noted that the event starkly showcased the relentless pursuit of online clout and its potential downfalls.
