Mexican diver Diego Balleza has recently opened an OnlyFans account to pay for his training ahead of 2024 Paris Olympics. The 10-meter synchronized diver has taken this move to support his training ahead of the global event which is set to take place in Paris.
This decision of the 28-year-old athlete comes after Mexico’s national sports commission cut the funding of all aquatics athletes. It is to be noted that the government funds were held back after an internal dispute between the World Aquatics and Ana Guevara (Mexico’s National Sports Commission). The Mexican aims to sell steamy pictures via his OnlyFans account to help earn through online mode and achieve his dream of competing in the Olympics.

Diego, who sports swimsuits said that he signed the subscription-based platform to sell content that would eventually help him supplement his cut-income. “I support my house and my mother, and I have bills to pay, and you can upload whatever you want in there, it’s valid content,” Balleza said in an interview with the Associated Press.
“I am happy that the people who are in my page have been very good and respectful, I hope they continue like this,” he further added.
As part of his new sign-up, the athlete further informed that he charges USD 15 a month to access his private account, with an additional three-month subscription and 12-month subscription for upto USD 135.
The athlete believes that the money earned via OnlyFans will replace his USD 1,708 worth government scholarship he received prior to the fund cut in January 2023. The 28-year-old also received financial support from private sector as well as the state government of Nuevo Leon.
