While Holly Madison<\/strong> and Kendra Wilkinson<\/strong> grew close during their time with former boyfriend and Playboy founder Hugh Hefner<\/strong>, their relationship fractured \u2014 and it\u2019s been broken ever since.<\/p>\n Madison, Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt<\/strong> starred on hit reality TV series The Girls Next Door<\/em>, which focused on their lives as they lived in the infamous Playboy mansion while all dating Hefner at the same time.. The show was a massive hit and aired for six seasons, from 2005 to 2009. The reality series\u2019 success also led to Madison and Wilkinson getting their own spinoff shows, Holly\u2019s World<\/em> and Kendra<\/em>, respectively.<\/p>\n Madison and Wilkinson appeared to be friends on the shows. However, since the shows\u2019 cancellations, both women have previously spoken out about their strained relationship. During a May 2026 appearance on Kristin Cavallari<\/strong>\u2019s \u201cLet\u2019s Be Honest\u201d podcast, Madison revealed that she and Wilkinson \u201chaven\u2019t spoken\u201d since 2012.<\/p>\n Keep scrolling for a full breakdown on what Madison said about her 14-year feud with Wilkinson:<\/p>\n Madison alleged that edits made on the former reality series made it seem like \u201cpeople were jealous of other people or being mean to other people.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt would be like Kendra\u2019s late and then cut to me making a look that I wasn\u2019t really making in the moment,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd that was rough.\u201d<\/p>\n Madison shared that a producer from Girls Next Door<\/em> also worked on her and Wilkinson\u2019s shows. While both women filmed, Madison claimed that the producer tried to pit the two women against each other when it came to their respective careers.<\/p>\n \u201cThe same guy who did Girls Next Door<\/em> was also producing my spinoff and Kendra\u2019s spinoff. And just as the years went on, he was getting really crazy with us as far as trying to get us to do these certain things and motivate us by making us jealous of each other,\u201d she alleged in May 2026.<\/p>\n Madison claimed that the producer would allegedly try to get a reaction out of her when telling her about some of Wilkinson\u2019s achievements. She also alleged that the producer did the same thing with Wilkinson over Madison\u2019s success and encouraged them to film together.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019d come over and Kendra would be weird and I\u2019d be like \u2018What\u2019s going on?\u2019\u201d she recalled. \u201cIt was just all this kind of stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n Madison claimed that she and Wilkinson got into a disagreement over articles related to their friendship.<\/p>\n \u201cKendra was really wrapped up in the tabloid cycle,\u201d she alleged. \u201cSo if she needed a feud to be mentioned that week, she would say she was never friends with me and I called her out on that over text \u201c<\/p>\n Madison acknowledged she would have understood if there was a misleading headline. The final nail in the coffin, though, came when Wilkinson allegedly reposted the article \u2014 and Madison confronted her about it.<\/p>\nHolly Madison Claims That \u2018Girls Next Door\u2019 Tried to Pit Her Against Kendra Wilkinson<\/h2>\n
