“Some people have regrets about going into the adult industry… I regret ever leaving,” … so says Sophia Locke, one year on from her return to the skin biz after taking a five-year hiatus in 2016.

Indeed, the comeback queen, who has more than made up for lost time this year with several new showcase performances for studios such as TeamSkeet, MYLF, Girlfriends Films, Naughty America, BadoinkVR/ KinkVR and New Sensations, says that leaving the industry to make her partner happy ultimately didn’t make her happy either.

“There are few jobs that have more of an impact on personal relationships than adult entertainment: from the extra-close bonds we make in our tight-knit community to the fallout with our families that no longer speak to us, there is an emotional weight that we carry – one way or another, when we choose this career.”

As a result, Locke muses that this time around, she’s committed “to do my part to demystify, legitimize and humanize the adult industry; I started a TikTok account to bring awareness to how the business of porn works. It has been a joy to reach a big audience and get the feedback that minds are changing when it comes to the negative stigma around adult work.”
