Madison co-starred on reality series The Girls Next Door, which aired from 2005 to 2010 and followed her and other Hefner girlfriends, Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson, in their lives at the Playboy Mansion.
Looking back, Madison said there wasn’t one incident that prompted her exit from Hefner’s estate.
“It was a combination of things that finally made me ready to leave. It was like, you know, getting into my late 20s and realizing that I wanted to have kids someday and also, I’d started working more, whether it was through the show and also like working at the Playboy Studio,” Madison said. “I started to get a lot more confidence, because I was working. And that helped.”
