Captivating Porn Couples: Tyler Saint & Ace Banner

Lots of porn stars date each other. Honestly what porn stars don't date (or "date") each other at some point? Some become official couples. And then a very special few become bonafide soulmates and spouses. That is the case for the smoking hot couple of veteran porn star Tyler Saint and his husband, OnlyFans star, Ace Banner.

These two have been married for a number of years now and share a beautiful life together. Fortunately for us, they still perform, but only with each other. They were both recently signed as Carnal Media Exclusive models.

They joined Fleshbot for a couples interview discussing being a committed and actually very domestic married couple, while also continuing their careers in gay porn.

How did you two meet?

Tyler: Like most gay relationships, it started with the internet and the gay chat-n-meet sites of the time. It seemed like no matter what new site we subscribed to, we would eventually find one another and continue chatting. The amazing thing is we chatted for several years before we decided to meet in person. I lived in Los Angeles and Ace lived in Mississippi, so getting together would be a challenge—not like we lived next door to one another. Ace was to be in LA on a work trip, so we planned to meet. The day was finally here, and I was a nervous wreck. Knowing I already had strong feelings toward him, I hoped that meeting in person wouldn’t be a disappointment. (It has been said, never meet your heroes). We had planned for me to stop at his hotel to pick him up for lunch. Seeing him walk toward my vehicle, I knew I was instantly smitten. We have been together since that day.

What made you fall in love with the other?

Tyler: Having talked for several years online before meeting it was quite easy to form strong feelings. People tend to be more open and forthcoming when chatting via bandwidth rather than in person. Ace had multiple-day meetings in Las Vegas that he needed to attend. He had a small window of time to himself—so what did he do? He booked a flight to LA to come to see me for less than 9 hours before he had to take another flight back to Las Vegas to be at an important meeting. That is when I knew for sure that I had fallen in love with him.

Ace: We met for that first lunch, and I knew within 30 minutes that he was the one. Not just that this felt different, but that he was the one I wanted to be with. His openness and honesty along with his humbleness made me fall hard and fast. He actually “confessed” to being in porn on our first meeting. He wasn’t bragging but was just telling me in case it made a difference. Obviously, I knew who he was in the industry. He’d just won an international award for best male performer for God’s sake, so it was tough NOT knowing who he was. Over the years of us talking, though, we’d never discussed his work in porn. To him, it was just a job like any other. He was much more interested in talking about the business he owned and the people in his life. Oh, and he also said I looked like a “board shorts guy” on our first date when we went for a dip in the hot tub. We obviously hadn’t talked about everything over the years!

You became a couple after you were both performers in the adult industry for a
considerable time. Did your past experiences in the industry have any effect on your
relationship?

T: We believe that our past experiences in the industry have been an outlet to enhance our sex lives preparing us to be open and honest with one another about our sexual desires, wants, and needs.

How has becoming a couple changed you as performers? What is it like being a couple
in the adult industry? What are some of the advantages and challenges?

T: The only thing that has changed about us being a couple in the industry is the fact that we only film scenes or collab when we both are present and doing it together. The main challenge is that studios have a hard time scripting a scene that involves both of us participating. Another challenge is that we both have different looks —in fact completely opposite. I am smooth, shorter, and have hair, while Ace is hairy, taller, and bald. We may not always appeal to some, however, we both have the same sexual appetite.

You have chosen to only continue performing with each other. Could you explain why?

A: Performing together is our form of monogamy. Every relationship is different, having particular parameters—or none at all. We feel that this works best for us and we will always continue to carry it forward.

What is it like to see your partner performing, both in person and on-screen? 

T: Seeing Ace in action has always been uber-hot for me. Even in the days of his solo performances, I could get off watching him over and over. Ace exudes not only sexuality but a sensuality that gets my motor running. It goes without saying that if I loved his solo scenes, I would absolutely love seeing him do what he does best with others. When we share intimate moments with others, I like to sit back and watch him enjoy himself.

A: Some people are so gifted at sex that it becomes art, not just fucking. I spent years watching him perform on video and so being there in person is like fulfilling a fantasy. Seeing him with somebody else is a beautiful expression of humanity to me. And then, when it’s over and we’ve shared our experience, we go home together. I love knowing that he’s able to be with just about anybody he wants but he chooses me over and over and over. Participating in that kind of relationship is intoxicating to me.

What are some of your ambitions moving forward in the industry, both as a couple and separately?

It is no secret that we are older than most in the industry. Our individual and collective ambitions are to just have fun creating content that people want to view for as long as they want to view it. Of course, maintaining an OnlyFans and JustForFans presence is super important to get that content to our viewers.

You have both been in the business for a considerable amount of time now. What is the secret(s) of your longevity?

We are not exactly sure if there is a secret but rather a mindset to maintaining longevity in this business. Listening, responding to, and giving our followers and subscribers what they request has been a factor in our success. People want to know more about us outside of the sex. They want a glimpse into our everyday lives and what we do in our downtime. They like to see the things we do, the places we visit, and the people we encounter. I feel that being real is the major key to any successful endeavor.

Tell us about your relationship outside of performing and the industry. Who are Tyler and Ace? Both separately and as a couple?

T: Our relationship outside of the porn aspect is pretty much that of any relationship. We are huge travel enthusiasts and always need to have a trip planned on the calendar. Our health and fitness regimens are pretty much identical, and we both have the same goals—maintain a consistent muscular look. We encourage and complement each other to keep motivated and on track. Ace has a work-from-home job, and I am a college student which allows us a significant amount of time together. The most ironic aspect that makes us somewhat different is that Ace is a huge exhibitionist whereas I am more conservative with nudity. I have a hard time keeping clothes on that man.

For Tyler: What is the sexiest thing about Ace and what do you love most about him?

T: Aces’ sexiest feature is the fact that he has an “I don’t care what others think about me” mentality. He is a take me for who I am or get over it kind of guy. I wish I could be more like that. The fact that he loves me unconditionally, accepts my necrosis, and allows me to be me is what I love most about him.

For Ace: What is the sexiest thing about Tyler and what do you love most about him?

A: The sexiest thing about Tyler isn’t physical at all. It’s his faultlessly kind heart and generous spirit. His love language is gifting and making others feel valued. He foresees needs and has a solution ready. Listening intently and internalizing empathy for others makes him easy to love. It’s impossible to feel badly about yourself while he’s around. Believe me, I try sometimes. He exudes positivity and I am truly fortunate to have him in my life. The thing I love the most about him, though, is his ability to love despite the world against him. There’s so much more to his story than just sex on film, so knowing that he has such capacity for love despite his trials makes him even more attractive to me. Now, if I did have to nail down the physical, there are too many traits to list, but there’s this one that gets me…that muscle on the side of his hip where his leg joins his bubble butt. That really turns me on! Just watching him flex it can get me hard!
