Riley Reid has revealed why she ‘doesn’t love’ shooting pornographic content anymore.

Reid is one of the most well-known faces in the adult industry and has gone on to win over 45 awards, including Female Performer of the Year and the AVN Award for Female Performer of the Year in 2016.

The 33-year-old has been very open and honest about her feelings on porn, having been in the industry since she was 19.

Though as she's gotten older, it seems her views on the adult industry have changed as she no longer performs with men, and has some regret on her decision to become an adult film actor.

In an April interview on the Shadow Banned podcast, Reid - who became a parent in 2022 - spoke more in depth about how getting married to Pasha Petkuns in 2021 has changed her outlook.

On settling down with her husband and welcoming her daughter, the adult star said: "It's been really fun, it's definitely been a different identity process of me trying to figure out who this new version of myself is.

"And so like I remember having my identity crisis when I was in porn, being like 'who am I?' and like 'what is this?'.

"And so now I'm trying to renavigate myself within, trying to parent as well as be like a business person and so that's been really interesting."

Explaining why she no longer loves shooting porn, Riley added: "Yeah, as well as like trying to adapt to the adult world because, to be honest, I don't love shooting content now that I have like a c-section scar cos it puts like a date and a time stamp."

She continued to say: "I don't care, but like I only care in the sense of where I worry that if it bothers her (daughter) in the future then it's going to bother me.

"If it doesn't bother her, then it doesn't bother me but I'm like, I know that there's a time stamp so I can't lie and be like 'that was all before you'."

Riley has always been open in interviews about her career and during an appearance on It's Daniel Mac in 2022, the actor also opened up about her going-rate over the years.

"I kept my rate up at like over five, like it was like five to 10k, for you know kind of dependant on the month and where I was, I was like 'okay I'll take some more a**, we could lower my rate' and I'm like 'uh let's raise it up because I've shot a lot recently'," she said.

"So like when you see your first a***, your first DP and your first g***bang, a lot of times you can get a good chunk of chains.

"Sometimes girls can get like 10k, sometimes they can get 15 to 20.

"So it kind of like depends on like what you do, like if you do a featured movie, you might be able to get like 30,000 if you shoot like a few scenes or whatever."
