I’m starting to feel seriously sorry for Hugh Hefner. He’s got all these women coming in and out of his life… it’s a revolving door of deep emotions and attachments. It’s got to hurt the poor guy that women are always leaving him. Certainly no one stays forever, but can’t women want Hef for anything more than sex? It’s like once the use him and just move on. Poor guy.
Even Hefner has acknowledged that the relationships in the Playboy mansion are changing. Rumors have been floating around for months that Kendra and Holly haven’t been getting along. And there have been quiet whisperings for even longer that Kendra is actually a lesbian.
It seems that particular piece of gossip has been blown apart, since it’s pretty clear Kendra is actually dating Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Hank Baskett. And while Holly seems to have held in there pretty well, Hef said he realizes the girls are likely to move on to new boyfriends soon, and they won’t hide it on the show.
Rumors of Hugh Hefner and his girls calling it quits have been greatly exaggerated. The Playboy captain just told me that he is very much still dating Holly Madison, Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt.
“The reality is the girls and I are all together,” Hefner said. He quickly shot down reports that Madison has been seeing Mindfreak illusionist Criss Angel.
“Holly shares my bed on a nightly basis,” Hef said. And Hef had a lot more to say… Hefner does acknowledge that the relationships are “in transition.”
“Are there going to be changes in the relationships, I’m sure there are going to be,” Hefner said. “I think that in the future, the girls are going to, in time, be dating others and moving out of the mansion, and when that happens we will not be keeping it a secret,” Hefner said.
He says he’s not surprised by the constant gossip and false rumors because the girls have become celebrities in their own right because of the success of E!’s The Girls Next Door.

Holly has certainly seemed exceptionally devoted to Hef. While I find the idea a little gross, it must be even more disgusting to be with Criss Angel.
I appreciate that Hef was honest. See, you don’t have to do the PR bullshit and give constant “no comments” and “we remain the best of friends.” There’s ways to say things honestly and still not be catty about it. Hef just acknowledged that there was truth to some or the rumors and others were bull. And he even specified which ones. All in all, I appreciate his candor. Which is not something I normally think when Hef speaks.
It’ll be interesting to see which girl leaves first, who she hooks up with, and if that’ll be a part of the show. And I’m sadly embarrassed to admit that I’m curious about who could take her place. Something tells me Bridget could stay around for a long time, or until she gets saggy. You don’t hear much gossip about her, she does a good job of managing to just stand there and look pretty.
