Holly Madison Opens Up About Rift With The Girls Next Door's Kendra Wilkinson

Holly Madison has given insight into what caused her relationship with The Girls Next Door co-star Kendra Wilkinson to deteriorate over the years.

During a recent appearance on the Hot Goss podcast, the 46-year-old author discussed her current dynamic with Wilkinson, noting that while the two don't maintain contact, she remains open to reconciliation. Madison explained that their disconnect developed after the reality series wrapped.

"She was really caught up in the tabloid cycle at that time," Madison recalled. "If her thing to get in the tabloids that week was a rift with someone, then she was going to say it."

Madison and Wilkinson, alongside Bridget Marquardt, were featured as the primary companions of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner from 2005 through 2009 on the hit E! series.

According to Madison, friction between the two women was partly fueled by their respective spinoff ventures and working with a mutual producer. "It was stuff that had to do with our spinoffs and working with the same producer," Madison explained. "I really feel like he tried to pit us against each other and got in our heads. So, that's a shame."

Madison, who hosts the Lethally Blonde podcast, has previously discussed her experiences at the Playboy Mansion, including details about intimate encounters that took place there.
