Heston Russell, former Combat Veteran who sold an explicit photo of himself on Anzac Day in 2020 for a charity, is running for Senate in the upcoming election.
The Senate Candidate for QLD stated to Swiss 8 that he was raising funds by selling photos denying that they were explicit and nude. Furthermore, Mr Russell denies withholding any proceeds from the sale of the images from the charity.
He was fired from Swiss 8 on July 3, 2020, just five months after starting as Chief Partnerships & Strategy Officer, due to an incident involving OnlyFans.
