Steven Spielberg's daughter Mikaela, 23, comes out as a PORN STAR, says her dad is in complete support of her career

Steven Spielberg's adopted 23-year-old daughter Mikaela has revealed she is working as a porn star, while opening up about the sexual abuse that she suffered as a child.

In a new interview, the Nashville-based adult film star, who was adopted as a baby by Spielberg, 73, and his wife Kate Capshaw, 66, revealed that she only recently told her parents about her new line of work, but said that they have been very supportive of her career choice.

Describing herself as a 'sexual creature', Mikaela went on to explain that she was eager to find a way to 'capitalize on her body', having grown frustrated with working in a more traditional job that 'wasn't satisfying her soul'.

She also shared that her new career has given her a feeling of empowerment and confidence that she never thought she'd be able to have, with the budding stripper revealing that she suffered abuse at the hand of 'predators' as a child, which later sparked a series of mental health issues. 

Over the past few years, Mikaela has struggled with anorexia, borderline personality disorder, and alcoholism, all of which she says are the result of childhood sexual abuse. However, she notes that her abusers were not a part of her family, or her parents' inner circle of friends.

Mikaela, who is engaged to 47-year-old darts player Chuck Pankow, explained that the work she is now doing in the porn industry makes her feel 'good' because she is able to 'satisfy' others without being 'violated'.

Thus far, Mikaela has only worked on solo videos, which she self-produced and then published on popular free porn website PornHub. However, she has since removed her clips because she wants to obtain her Tennessee adult entertainment permit before sharing any more content.

And while she says she is open to trying 'fetish work', Mikaela insists that she will not have sex with another person on camera out of respect for her fiance Chuck, who she describes as being 100% supportive of her career.

"The reason I don't want to do anything outside of solo stuff is because I feel like it would be a violation of my boundaries and my relationship with my significant other,' she said, adding that she thinks she would be 'great at fetish work'.
