Radvinsky, a Ukrainian-American billionaire, acquired the company that owns and operates OnlyFans, Fenix International Limited, in 2018, the company told Mashable. He was a director and majority shareholder of Fenix.

"We are deeply saddened to announce the death of Leo Radvinsky. Leo passed away peacefully after a long battle with cancer," an OnlyFans spokesperson told Mashable. "His family have requested privacy at this difficult time."

As Reuters reported, it's now unclear who will own OnlyFans.
