Piper Rockelle opens up about her past
Piper Rockelle, who joined OnlyFans on January 1, 2026, reflected on her childhood in a new interview with The Free Press. “I had a really great childhood throughout the whole entire thing,” Rockelle said about her childhood, “My family helped me, and I was just one of the lucky ones.”
Rockelle started out as a social media personality at the age of eight. Her earlier videos featured other creators who were called “the squad.” Her mother, Tiffany Smith, managed the whole thing. Later, Smith was accused of emotional, physical, and sexual abuse by the other minors who participated in Rockelle’s videos. Netflix made a documentary on Tiffany Smith, as well.
But Rockelle claimed in the new interview that her earlier content was “innocent.”
Piper has transitioned to OnlyFans, a platform that she claimed was a “huge market.”
Rockelle explained, “OnlyFans is a huge market.” She added, “It’s not for everybody, but it is for me. I love creating and making interesting things for people.”
Piper Rockelle joined OnlyFans on January 1, 2026, and claimed that she earned a million dollars within the first hour. She posted screenshots of the same, but they were widely debated. Rockelle has now admitted that she had faked the screenshots. “I know that sounds terrible,” she said about faking the earnings, “But I’m a content creator, and you have to do things that normal people might not be willing to do.”
She further addressed rumors that her family groomed her, saying, “I’m still in my house. I’m with my family every single day. My family is everything to me. I’m 18. Now, they have no choice but to believe me.”
