The owner of OnlyFans, the mostly pornographic subscriber platform, paid himself $338m (£267m) in dividends last year as the UK-based company made pre-tax profits of $525m.

Leonid Radvinsky, 41, the site’s Ukrainian-American owner, is the sole shareholder in the company, which was founded by the Stokely family in Essex in 2016.

Last year’s dividend, which works out at $1.3m for every working day, takes the total Radvinsky has collected from the site over the past three years to $889m.
