A Californian woman who was once one of the world’s most successful porn stars has started a new life as a pastor.
Brittni De La Mora and her husband Richard, both 31, preach the gospel at Cornerstone Church in San Diego, but six years ago Brittni’s life was very different.
‘There was a period in the porn industry where I was earning a lot of money. When I first started, I was making about $30,000 a month, because I was working every day,’ she recounted.
‘I had a brand new Mercedes and every new Louis Vuitton purse, Christian Louboutin heels… I really played the part.’
Brittni, who performed under the stage name Jenna Presley, featured in about 300 adult videos, but the cameras didn’t capture the turmoil in her personal life.
‘I was struggling to pay my rent because I had a really bad drug addiction. I would spend thousands and thousands of dollars a week on drugs,’ she said.
‘I started off with cocaine but then eventually I was battling a heroin addiction.’
Brittni had her first brush with the sex industry aged just 16, when she traveled to Mexico for a night with friends.
‘I felt rejected as a child and teenager, in my households there was a lot of chaos and animosity, so I started looking for love and acceptance in all the wrong places,’ she recounted.
