Who is Stella Barey?
Stella Barey is a 23-year-old American woman whose life took an unconventional turn because of the pandemic. At the height of the Corona epidemic, Stella was a pre-med student at UCLA and laser-focused on getting into med school and becoming a surgeon. She dreamed of becoming an ob-gyn like her mom, or a plastic surgeon.
Her well-laid plans unraveled during the pandemic when she was forced to attend an organic lab session via Zoom. You could say that Zoom fatigue drove her into her current career path. In 2020, stressed out and bored out of her mind from the lack of social contact, Stella Barey turned to social media for companionship.
She got on TikTok, the trendiest video-sharing site at the time. She shared a raunchy story of losing her anal virginity at the back of a car to a homeless vet and thought nothing of it. The little story caught on like bushfire, earning her thousands of subscribers overnight.
Stella Barey Early Life
Stella Barey was born on November 7, 1998, in Montana, United States, to a highly affluent family. Her father is a high-flying hedge fund manager, while her mother is an obstetrician-gynecologist. Stella is the first-born daughter, and she has one younger brother.
Stella’s parents were high achievers who came from nothing, so they were high-driven to achieve success. Barey describes her parents as A-personalities who are very intense. The 23-year-old led a lavish lifestyle surrounded by every imaginable luxury her entire life.
Despite having all the money in the world, Stella’s parents weren’t happy together. From an early age, about eight years, Stella could tell that her parent’s marriage wouldn’t last. And it was true. Stella Barey’s parents divorced when she was ten years old.
Moving to London
Stella Barey was ten years old when her hedge fund manager father relocated the family to London. Initially, the entire family relocated to London, but her mom and younger brother later relocated back to the US.
Barey recalls that when she was 17, they had planned a family trip to Greece, only for her father to pull out at the last minute. He went on a trip with his friends, where he met and fell in love with another woman. He divorced her mother shortly after, leaving her financially vulnerable. Stella Barey stayed behind with her father, as she was still in school.
Stella Barey Education
Unlike most adult content creators on OnlyFans, Stella Barey is highly educated. By the time she joined the platform, she had six years of post-secondary education, including a bachelor’s degree and a 2-year pre-med program.
Having been born into an affluent family, Stella Barey was accustomed to the finest things in life. And school was no different. Stella attended a private school in London before joining New York University to study philosophy and policy.
Stella Barey was an honor student during all her academic pursuits. The overachieving porn star maintained a 4.0 GPA average throughout her school life. Since she was big on school life, she didn’t party like the average coed. Instead, she split her time between home, classes, and the library during her four years at NYU.
Unlike the average student, Stella Barey created her own major, choosing to study public health policy and philosophy. Before becoming a surgeon, she wished to understand how the public health sector worked.
After graduating from NYU, Stella Barey joined the UCLA pre-med program. She enrolled in the 2-year post-Bacc program to study math and sciences in readiness to enter medical school. She was on her way to finishing the two-year pre-med program with two classes left when Covid hit.
The organic chemistry classes were challenging, and Stella missed socializing with her friends. Previously, her life was structured around classes and the library.
Suddenly, that was no longer possible and Stella was stressed and truly bored out of her mind. After a grueling organic chemistry lab final, she downloaded TikTok and posted her first ever video.
Stella Barey’s Journey to TikTok Stardom
After the grueling organic chemistry lab final, Stella Barey downloaded TikTok and had a blast sharing her first anal sex encounter with the world.
“I was just cracking myself – and I posted something about how I lost my anal virginity in a car on the first date. And then that blew up.”
The porn superstar says she viewed TikTok as an outlet because the Covid-mandated changes made her feel out of her element. She started sharing sexually themed content as a sexual compulsion, innocently thinking it won’t amount to much.
So naturally, she was surprised when her content blew up, and she gained followers and views by the truckload. In her opinion, she was shocked and surprised by the quick traction.
“I started getting a lot of followers from it, I wasn’t even posting any other sex stuff, just random videos.”
While she enjoyed her newly found internet fame, Stella Barey was conflicted. She was conflicted because she was applying to med school while posting sexually explicit content on the internet. She thought her online persona might ruin her med school chances. Luckily or unluckily, she didn’t quit TikTok, and her growing fanbase steered her career in a different direction.
Stella Barey’s Journey to OnlyFans Stardom
At first, Stella Barey was clueless about OnlyFans until her fans on TikTok brought it to her. Fans began asking her if she was on OnlyFans, so she checked it out. And the rest is history.
While Stella Barey was intrigued about the prospects of making money from OnlyFans, she wasn’t entirely sold on the idea of becoming a porn star. Initially, she thought she’d post a few pictures in tiny bikinis and make money to tidy her through college.
So, she eased into her OnlyFans career by creating sexually suggestive content as she wrestled with the decision to plunge into the porn industry. But the money was too good and was piling on quickly.
The events of Covid-19 had Stella Barey reevaluating her priorities. Having studied the philosophy of life and death in college, she began questioning her current career path.
Stella Barely’s OnlyFans Dilemma
Stella admits to being a very sexual person with a high sex drive who thoroughly enjoys having sex.
Stella Barely claims high sexual energy runs in their family’s DNA. The adult film star points out that her parents sat her down when she was 8. They told her they were both highly sexual people, and she needed to get ahead of it.
Stella alleges that she was told she needed to learn how to control her sex energy and ensure that it didn’t control her. She also got sexually active very early in life, losing her virginity at 13 years. At 17, Barey was dating a 26-year-old man. Her mother was appalled by her choice, but her dad was cool with it, so she continued with the relationship.
She admits her high sex drive was responsible for her blowing up on TikTok. At that time, she had an active sex life which involved plenty of risky things. She based her TikTok content on her sexual escapades.
Coming from a high-achievers background, Stella Barey thrives on challenges, overcoming adversity, and going against the drain.
“I like sex and sexual challenges for the same reason she loves medicine, school challenges, and academic validation.”
Eventually, Stella Barey joined the sex industry, deciding that it checked every item on her career list. Unlike medicine, the adult film industry is subject to lower regulations and is less restrictive. And it was highly lucrative, paying way over what she would make as a surgeon.
Stella Barey’s OnlyFans Debut
Stella Barey’s decision to become an adult content creator proved lucrative. Unlike most adult film stars on OnlyFans, Barey had a distinct advantage. The Montana transplant in London had a massive following on TikTok thanks to her raunchy content.
She had built a solid audience by narrating her sexual escapades, some of which entailed perilous scenarios. She had her adoring fans mentally undressing her with each story she told. And so, after intensive research, Stella Barey transitioned from a soft porn creator to a hardcore porn creator on OnlyFans.
During her first month on OnlyFans, Stella Barey made an impressive $8,000 before jumping to $20,000 in the second month. The cash flow set the stage for bigger exploits and cemented Barey’s resolve to become a porn star.
However, it took another five months before she worked up the confidence to break the news to her mom. However, five months into her adult film career, Stella Barey was out-earning her mother, who was a surgeon with a private practice.

The sassy and gorgeous porn star makes hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly from the OnlyFans platform. Stella Barey reportedly earned a staggering $285,000 from OnlyFans during her highest earning month in 2021.
Stella Barey Relationship
Stella Barey is currently single, having broken up with her boyfriend of two years back in 2021. Stella recounts that she met and fell in love with her ex-boyfriend while volunteering at a VA homeless shelter. Her ex-boyfriend was a homeless veteran who struggled with a mental disorder and alcoholism.
Barey describes her ex-boyfriend as a genius who suffered from bipolar disorder. He was highly intelligent but refused to take medication and had been admitted to 9 psychiatric units. She fondly said that he was highly creative and the most magical person she’s ever met.
Stella Barely felt an instant connection the moment she met her ex-boyfriend, and they ended up having anal sex at the back of his car. It was this raunchy sexual escapade that earned her a multitude of fans after posting the story on TikTok.
Stella Barey had been with her ex-boyfriend for one year before joining OnlyFans. She launched a successful solo career on the adult platform before her then-boyfriend joined her in shooting the video. The couple continued shooting pornographic videos together until they broke up in late 2021.
Stella Barey attributes their breakup to her ex’s unwillingness to seek medical treatment. The boyfriend became manic and was prone to outbursts, which made living with him impossible. Before the breakup, Stella Barey had moved to Puerto Rico for taxation purposes.
Her ex-boyfriend became manic, violent, and unreasonable, forcing the porn star to flee from her own home. He trashed her house before coming back to his senses. At that point, Stella Barey gave him $5,000 and offered to fly him to whichever city he desired. He took the money and flew to Miami, Florida, where he blew through the five grand in seven days.

Stella Barey’s net worth isn’t publicly available, but the porn star is worth an estimated $1 million. As one of the highest-paid adult content creators on OnlyFans, Stella Barey earns over $200K monthly as of 2021. However, the adult film star says she’s very frugal with money.
Coming from a privileged background, she was accustomed to the finer things in life from an early age. However, she outgrew the shopaholic phase during her teens and learned to manage money responsibly.
She learnt a great lesson following her parents’ bitter divorce. Stella Barey says that her dad hid all the money, leaving her mother destitute and surviving on credit cards.
Stella Barey leaned toward a career in the adult film industry because it was highly lucrative, making her financially independent. She was happy to stop relying on her mother, who was gutted during divorce, for upkeep.
How Does Stella Barey Invest Her Money?
Unlike many young people who come into sudden wealth, Stella Barey isn’t a spendthrift. She’s quite the opposite. She learned the value of financial independence from her parent’s divorce and vowed to take charge of her finances.
She hired a financial advisor to help her manage her finances. She went with her mom’s financial advisor, a retired money manager who came out of retirement to help empower women like Stella’s mum. She had to restructure her life after a messy divorce left her penniless and drove her into debt.
Currently, Stella Barey invests a large chunk of her money in mutual funds, real estate, and a few high-risk accounts. She’s also focused on maxing out her retirement account – at the tender age of 23 years!
