Robbie Manson and Matthew Mitcham have announced a “cheeky” OnlyFans collaboration.
The two athletes, who ‘crossed paths’ at the 2024 Paris Olympics, shared a joint Instagram post teasing a crossover with their platforms, writing: “Did someone say collab? Of course!”
And, on their OnlyFans pages, both Olympians continued to tease their collaboration while also providing context on their history.
“What happens when two OF creators cross paths at the Olympics? COLLAB!” wrote Mitcham. “I met openly gay NZ rower @robbie_manson at Pride House when we were in Paris last week. Do you want to see the other shots from the series?”
Meanwhile, Manson captioned his post: “The last time we met it was in the Olympic Village in London. It was great to catch up with @matthewmitcham again and do a cheeky collab. Who wants to see more?!”
Here are the links for Mitcham and Manson’s OnlyFans pages.
Mitcham, 36, memorably made history in 2008 as the first openly gay athlete to win a Olympic gold medal. Since retiring, the Australian diver has made television appearances on the Australian edition of Dancing with the Stars, where he placed runner-up, and SAS Australia.

Recently, he opened up about how OnlyFans is more lucrative than being an Olympian, writing in an essay for The Telegraph: “After all the hours and sacrifice we’ve put in, we athletes have more than earned the odd side-hustle.
“The harsh truth of sport is that a small percentage of athletes make it big. Those people might be rewarded with lots of juicy sponsorships, but we’re talking about only the most beautiful and charismatic of Olympic champions. A lot of brilliant performers get left behind.”
Manson, a New Zealand rower, additionally told Reuters that he makes more than double the amount of money on the subscription-based website than he does as an athlete. He also said he was inspired to follow in the footsteps of Mitcham.
“The fact that I’m gay, I have the gay following and the audience already, and I’m slightly leaning into that. I wouldn’t say it’s for everyone, (but) for other athletes, there’s definitely an opportunity there,” the 34-year-old explained.
Manson and Mitcham are two of many Olympic athletes that have found success on OnlyFans, with Jack Laugher, Daniel Goodfellow, Matty Lee and Noah Williams all opening about their “side-hustles”.
