Kendra Wilkinson is all about being her kids’ biggest cheerleaders, regardless of where their career paths take them.
The Kendra on Top star and mom to daughter Alijah Mary, 3, and son Hank IV, 7½, opened up to Entertainment Tonight Thursday about her children’s futures — and specifically, how that unconditional support extends to a scenario in which Alijah, when she grows up, decides she wants to follow in mom’s model footsteps.

Kendra Wilkinson and mom Patti’s strained relationship continues to play out on the small screen.
Although the pair’s mother-daughter bond was stronger than ever on The Girls Next Door — which aired from 2005 to 2010 on E! — rising tensions sparked by Patti’s alleged tabloid leaks took their kinship in a dark direction. While the two are currently attempting to mend their broken relationship on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars — Family Edition, their dynamic is undoubtedly at an all-time low, with Patti’s tell-all about her daughter taking center stage on the upcoming season of Kendra on Top, premiering Friday.

Life as one of the "Girls Next Door" wasn't as glamorous as it looked on TV.
Holly Madison, a former Playboy Bunny and star of The Girls Next Door, is set to publish a memoir later this year. Madison revealed the cover for the book, Down the Rabbit Hole, on Instagram this week:
In a press release, publisher Harper Collins said the book looks at some of Madison's darker moments.
"...What seemed like a fairytale life inside the Playboy Mansion—including A-list celebrity parties and her own #1-rated television show for four years—quickly devolved into an oppressive routine of strict rules, manipulation, and battles with ambitious, backstabbing bunnies," the release stated.
"Life inside the notorious Mansion wasn't a dream at all—and quickly became her nightmare. After losing her identity, her sense of self-worth, and her hope for the future, Holly found herself sitting alone in a bathtub contemplating suicide."

“You can’t make a ho into a housewife,” says Kendra Wilkinson, former Playboy bunny, in what I can only imagine is the overall premise of this reality series. Catapulting her career after The Girls Next Door, Kendra is furthering her vacuous personality with this apparently successful series (season three airs this fall on We). Season two continues to follow her life as she balances her bustling career with her family life with former NFL player Hank Bassett (the third!) and their young son Hank IV (I can’t wait to see how long they will carry on the family name).

Last night Kendra Wilkinson of Girls Next Door fame and ex-girlfriend of the coolest old-dude in the entire world, Hugh Hefner, premiered her brand new reality series, Kendra, on E! Television Network. As with all reality shows, and especially celebrity reality shows, I found myself watching not out of curiosity or interest and not even for the occasionally blurred but naked boob of Kendra. No, I found myself watching out of total confusion. One minute, I was innocently clicking through the channels, looking for an old episode of Two and a Half Men, or maybe even Frasier, and Bam! there was on E! without even realizing it. I rolled my eyes the second I realized what it was, but I didn’t change the channel. Over the next hour I hit my guide button 4 times, and attempted to change the channel at least 5 times. But not once was I successful.
