Jack Doherty is considered one of the most unpleasant figures on the internet, and hardly a day goes by without the streamer embarrassing himself in one way or another. His behavior toward women in particular is a frequent target of criticism: he abandons his girlfriend when she’s threatened with a gun, buys viewbots for the stream of their joint wedding, or complains that he no longer earns anything from his ex-girlfriend’s adult content.

The latter now appears in a whole new light, as that very ex-girlfriend has spoken out in a detailed podcast about life with the 22-year-old.

Ex-Partner Speaks Out For 5 Hours Straight

Doherty’s main source of income – adult content accounts managed for various models – has long been under fire, with rumors that many of the models were underage, that the contracts were unfair, and that they were often signed during wild parties and under heavy pressure. McKinley Richardson now seems to confirm exactly those allegations.

In a nearly five-hour conversation about her time with the streamer, she has few good things to say about Doherty and also discusses her own adult content account.

She emphasizes that she came from a good Christian household and never would have considered the idea of posting or selling revealing photos and videos of herself online:

I realized that the way they did make their money was through OnlyFans, and I didn't judge them for it. I was aware they were doing that. But that was something I knew that I didn't want to do myself.

She goes on to explain that Jack Doherty made her believe he would take care of her and provide a lifestyle she had never thought she could experience – though she later realized he could only offer that because he profited from young, vulnerable women.

"Pushed Me To Make An Account"

After they became a couple, he introduced her to several of these models, who – because of signed NDAs – couldn’t talk about their often very problematic contracts. He created the illusion that all these girls were happy to be signed with him. Together with one of his business partners, Doherty then encouraged his girlfriend to open her own account:

Jack introduced me to [this man], we started talking a little bit, and he just brings up: "So, why don't you have an OnlyFans?" This man, who is in his 40s, never have met him before. It kind of caught me off guard, especially coming from an older man, that's the first thing you say to me? Why don't I have an OnlyFans? I was like: "It's against my morals."


At that point, however, she said it was clear to her that Doherty would break up with her if she didn’t agree – and that he both indirectly and directly pressured her to publish such content through his company.

Later, the money she earned from it became almost intoxicating to her. Even though most of the revenue went to Doherty, she felt more equal to him because she was, at least in appearance, making her own money.

Critics Question Richardson’s Statements

Of course, some of Richardson’s statements have faced criticism – partly because she’s a somewhat successful young woman and the internet is, well, the internet, but also because viewers question how sincere her claims really are.

Critics point out that Richardson still operates the account and wonder why she didn’t deactivate it after their breakup. Many online commenters suspect that she’s simply trying to clear her image and shift the blame for the scandals and questionable activities onto Doherty – without actually stopping them.

Nevertheless, it’s clear that without Doherty’s involvement, that account would likely never have existed – and that this is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to how problematic the 22-year-old truly is, especially in his treatment of women.
