Wilde Oscar is a retired English pornographic actor.cite web | title = Personal Bio Michael Gaunt| publisher = IAFD.com|url =http://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=WOscar/gender=m/Wilde-Oscar.htm| accessdate = 2007-10-12 ] Although recognised as a porn actor in his own right, he is most noted for being married to, and frequently performed with, fellow English pornstar Nici Sterling. The couple have a daughter together.

Quotes

As quoted in [http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/it-was-never-about-the-money-714279.html The Independent] newspaper in June 2000.

Although I have done films with Nici and in my own right, Nici's the star in the family. She's the one the directors are keen on. For a long while the fact that we were a married couple was a great selling point. There aren't many in this industry and those who work together on screen are rarer still.
