The adult film industry is mourning the loss of one of its stars, Thaina Fields, a 24-year-old Peruvian actress who was found dead in her Trujillo home over the weekend. Fields, who had a significant following on social media platforms, including 225,000 followers on TikTok, had previously spoken out about the abuse she experienced within the industry.
Alejandra Sweet, a fellow adult content creator and close friend of Fields, confirmed the news of her death. Sweet expressed her grief and asked for prayers for Fields, describing her as a “little angel” in a post on her Instagram profile.
Fields, whose real name was Abigail, had been open about the challenges she faced in her career. Eight months prior to her death, she revealed that she had been subjected to severe sexual harassment since she began creating adult content.
In her own words, Fields described the industry as a place where many believed they could treat her as they pleased simply because of her profession. She recounted instances where she would return home, take a bath, and cry due to the abuse she endured. Fields also highlighted the societal pressures and prejudices faced by women in the adult film industry.
Fields’ death has sparked conversations about the treatment of women in the adult film industry, particularly in light of her previous allegations of abuse. Her passing serves as a stark reminder of the challenges and dangers faced by women in the industry, and the urgent need for reform.
