I can’t see a positive to telling him that information. Kids don’t need to know every detail of their parents’ lives.

What about if a friend tells him first? Wouldn’t that be much worse?

Possibly, but how would a friend know? I’m making an assumption that it would have to be an adult to make the discovery and then make it’s way down to the kids. Not impossible for that to happen, but it’s probably as likely that the son would never find out. Or not find out until he’s an adult and maybe the discussion is had at that time. While it’s not impossible for other kids to get access to this, it’s less likely than if this was a situation where Mom has an only fans or does porn or something that can be accessed on the Internet.

Also: from a practical perspective, how on earth does one keep this a secret?
‘Alright sweetie. Dinner is on the counter. If you need anything Becca next door said to just knock. Promise me you won’t stay up to late, okay?’
‘Sure Mom. But where are you going?’
‘I’ve told you sweetie: don’t ask questions. Bye!’
That makes no sense.

Yes, but how would his ~13 year old friends get into a strip club?
And even if they did, probably only his close friends know what his mom looks like, and likely won't even recognise her in that setting
