Double Lives of Suburban Wives star's staggering $550K month after leaving teaching for adult content

Brianna Coppage may have lost her teaching career, but she certainly didn't take a pay cut.

The "Double Lives of Suburban Wives" star told Fox News Digital that her adult-content business has transformed her family's finances, revealing that her most successful month brought in a staggering $550,000.

"Oh, my best month was 550,000," Brianna told Fox News Digital.

The figure marks a dramatic departure from her former life as an English teacher at St. Clair High School in Franklin County, Missouri. In 2023, Coppage was placed on administrative leave after her adult-content work was discovered. She later resigned from her position.

Asked whether she now makes more in a single month than she previously earned in an entire year as a teacher, Brianna didn't hesitate.

"Yes," she said.

And despite the controversy that followed the end of her teaching career, Brianna said she wouldn't go back even if given the opportunity.

"Never. Never," she told Fox News Digital when asked whether she would accept her teaching job back tomorrow.

"Yeah, just the lifestyle and the time and being able to just be in control of myself and in my business," she continued. "It's changed my family's life and just everything for the better."

Brianna is one of the women featured on TLC's "Double Lives of Suburban Wives," which follows six couples in the St. Louis area navigating marriage, parenthood and suburban life while maintaining careers creating adult content.

Brianna told Fox News Digital that she still struggles with whether losing her career was justified.

"I think… it's a difficult concept to even wrap my mind around," she said. "So obviously like professions have a level of professionalism, but also they couldn't cite anything that I technically broke."

"So was I really doing anything wrong? I don't know," she continued. "I think it's on a basis of morality."

Brianna also pushed back on what she described as a misconception surrounding her former employment.

"There was no like morality clause, which is a lot of… there's a misconception about that, that I signed something or a clause, a morality clause," she said. "There wasn't one. So I don't know."

While losing her teaching career forced Brianna onto a different professional path, she said the financial impact of her new work has been life-changing.

"My family was able to pay off all of our debts. I paid off my student loans," she told Fox News Digital. "So I stopped putting groceries on credit cards."

"Like yeah, it just is so freeing, and I don't know, it's been life-changing."

That financial freedom is one of the central tensions explored on "Double Lives of Suburban Wives," where the women weigh the benefits of their unconventional careers against the judgment and loss of privacy that can accompany them.

For Brianna, the cost has been significant.

"I think the greatest thing it has cost me is the privacy, the lack of privacy," she told Fox News Digital.

Being thrust into the public eye has sometimes left her feeling as though people forget there's a person behind the headlines.

"And being in the public eye, it's like, I'm not a human an
