In most families, parents and children take different career paths, but Seka Black and her daughter Nessi have chosen the same field—adult entertainment. What sets them apart is how they support each other, proving that family dynamics can evolve in unexpected ways.
Seka Black, now 70, first gained fame in the 1980s as the “Platinum Princess of Porn.” With her striking looks and confidence, she became one of the most recognizable figures in the industry. Her 2013 autobiography, Inside Seka, provides insight into her journey.

Born into a quiet household, Seka had a normal upbringing with her siblings. When her family moved to Hopewell, Virginia, she became known as “Dottie.” During high school, her beauty and charm won her the title of Miss Southside Virginia, marking her first step into the world of entertainment.
She eventually transitioned into adult entertainment after leaving her job as an accountant. “I retired from accounting, and now we’re just having fun,” she shared.
For Nessi, discovering her mother’s career was an unexpected moment. While on a family trip to Disneyland, she accidentally saw explicit messages on her mom’s phone.
“I was shocked at first,” Nessi admitted. “But when I thought about it, I realized it was actually kind of cool.”
With an interest in the industry from a young age, Nessi waited until she was 18 to explore adult camming. By 20, she was fully committed to content creation.
Now, both mother and daughter work in the adult industry, primarily producing content on OnlyFans. However, Seka has also returned to performing in major adult films. Although they don’t collaborate directly, they support each other in different ways.

Seka’s husband—who is also Nessi’s father—helps with video production and editing.
“We have fun because Daddy is our videographer and editor,” Seka laughed.
Generational differences also play a role in their careers. Seka helps Nessi understand the business side of the industry, while Nessi assists her mother with social media and digital tools.
“We used to give you advice,” Seka told her daughter. “But now, younger people are the tech experts.”
Nessi’s decision to join the industry was driven by dissatisfaction with her corporate job. When she expressed uncertainty, her mother encouraged her to take the leap.
Unlike many parents, Seka and her husband fully supported their daughter’s choice to join OnlyFans. However, working in adult entertainment still has its challenges. Nessi admitted that things can get awkward when her mom’s fans reach out to her.
Meanwhile, Seka continues to thrive. She was recently nominated for an AVN Award, the adult industry’s version of the Oscars. Though she didn’t win, she made a stunning appearance in a red gown on the red carpet.
When asked about retiring, Seka made it clear that she has no immediate plans to leave the industry. “I take things one day at a time,” she said. “I’ll probably keep going for another five years.”
Their story highlights the changing landscape of career choices and the growing acceptance of nontraditional work. Does family support make it easier, or does it blur professional boundaries? No matter the debate, Seka and Nessi are forging their own path together.
