Former Playboy Bunny Holly Madison Recalls What It Was Live Having ‘Unprotected Sex’ With Hugh Hefner

Former Playboy bunnies Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt are spilling all the secrets. The duo revealed some disturbing details about what took place during their time at Hugh Hefner’s mansion. Both women dated the late Playboy founder and at one time were considered to be his “main girlfriends” alongside Kendra Wilkinson. They all starred in The E! reality series The Girls Next Door.

Through a 10-episode A&E documentary, Secrets of Playboy, several revelations about the Playboy Mansion came to light, showing how the girls lived their daily life. They also appeared on the “Juicy Scoop” podcast, where they elaborated on how pressured they felt to have unprotected sex with Hefner.

“Shadow Mansions”

According to Marquardt,  a memory that haunts her was when she had to witness her first orgy in the mansion, which she planned to watch without participating in it. “I was still just gonna watch and then [one of the other Playmates] was like, ‘Aren’t you gonna go?’ It was like, ‘You need to go.’ And I was like, ‘I would rather not.’ And she’s like, ‘Well, then you probably won’t be invited back.”

Marquardt was 28-years-old when she first moved into the Mansion. She continued, “So then I was like, ‘OK.’ And I’d seen what everybody else was doing, so I knew that this was, like, a 10-second thing. I mean, definitely no more than a minute.” 

“You were hoping everyone’s in the same situation, and there is a doctor on staff. You’re hoping everybody is being checked out, and everybody is being — I say this in quotes — ‘monogamous’ to that relationship, but you don’t know. If there’s new girls coming up, which there often were, like, I just wanted to be first and be done. And I felt like that was the cleanest way.”

The documentary also revealed several allegations about cult-like similarities and heavy reports of sexual assault, orgies, drugs, and bestiality.

Madison went on to say that the atmosphere felt “cult-like” at times. “We were all kind of gaslit and expected to think of Hef as, like, this really good guy,” she stated. “You started to feel like, ‘Oh, he’s not what they say in the media — he’s just a nice man.’‌” Madison was Hefner’s girlfriend from 2001 until 2008, they had a 54-year age gap. 

The two ex-girlfriends weren’t the only ones who opened up about Hafner during his time in Playboy. Her ex-girlfriend Sandra Theodore, now 65, went on to tell The Post, “He was a predator. I watched him, I watched his game. And I watched a lot of girls go through [the Playboy Mansion] gates looking farm-fresh, and leaving looking tired and haggard.”
