cancer, Demetri’s father assured the family that his son’s venture into porn was “just a phase” and he would return to the corporate world soon.But it has now been 20 years and the man known online as Demetri Simstud remains an adult entertainer.He has no regrets about swapping banking for porn and he said the most important thing was that his mum is proud of him.Demetri – a Londoner with a Greek family background – turned to adult work after losing his job.Speaking exclusively with Daily Star, he said: “Being from a Greek conservative background, if you have a son, he must be a lawyer, an accountant or a doctor.
