Kendra Wilkinson

Kendra Wilkinson is happily engaged to Hank Baskett.

And she's showing off the ring to prove it!

Below, Wilkinson is sporting the 2 1/4-carat princess-cut diamond piece of jewelery selected by her man; it's surrounded by 60 diamonds "so that you can see it from all angles," Baskett said, adding:

"I'd keep it in my safe. And I'd look at it every day before practice, then I'd clean it. I'd come home from practice and still clean it. No one else touched it, but I still cleaned it."

Meanwhile, we're sorry Kendra, but this isn't the first engagement ring to make headlines this month.

Prior to breaking up with Melissa Rycroft on national TV, Jason Mesnick proposed to her with a ring that totaled 3.18 carats. It's pictured below, along a slightly closer shot of Kendra's new rock.

Which man - Hank or Jason - do you think made a better choice?

Kendra Wilkinson is ready to get nude for reasons other than money and attention.

The former Playboy Bunny told People Magazine that she and fiance Hank Baskett can't wait to start a family.

"We always talk about [having kids]," Wilkinson said. "He wants kids so [badly], and I do, too."

As for other tidbits Kendra revealed:

• She'd name a boy Hank Baskett IV;
• She will change her name to Kendra Baskett;
• Her brother - not Hugh Hefner, as she once considered - will walk her down the aisle.

Wilkinson also reflected, fondly, on her days as a Girl Next Door:

"These five years of my life at the Playboy mansion just went by so fast. I've changed in positive ways. I think people were thinking I was going to take the wrong turn, go crazy, be a party girl and just go downhill. Instead, I'm settling down – but at the same time, I do want to still have fun!"

During many threesomes with Hugh Hefner, it's safe to assume that Kendra Wilkinson often had the front of Holly Madison.

Following the latter's break up with Criss Angel, however, Kendra says she has Holly's back.

"She has so much love to give someone," Wilkinson said this week. "I hope that she finds someone to giver her that love back."

Following four intense months of dating, Madison and Angel announced on Wednesday that they were no longer a couple.

"I hope she stays happy and strong and I hope she finds someone that loves her for who she is – for her heart and for her giant boobs," said Wilkinson.

We've written a lot about Hank Baskett and Kendra Wilkinson. And for good reason.

He's a mediocre wide receiver for the Philadelphia Eaglers that stole this Playboy Bunny from under the wrinkled nose of Hugh Hefner. And they're getting married this summer!

It's very exciting. But it's also been very strange that we haven't uncovered a pair of this couple together in public... until now!

Baskett and Wilkinson hit the Starbucks VIA Ready Brew Lounge in Hollywood earlier today.

Take a look at the happy couple below - but then let's leave them alone. The look on Hank's face makes it clear what he wants to do with his bride-to-be right about now...

Have you bought a box of chocolates? Picked out a bouquet of roses?

With Valentine's Day hours away, a few of our favorite celebrities dished a bit on life and love earlier today...

Kim Kardashian crushes on everyone's favorite bachelor George Clooney: "He's just so sexy."

Mischa Barton on her first kiss: "[The guy] tried to force his tongue down my throat."

Kendra Wilkinson said her first kiss "just happened with my 6th grade boyfriend."

Whitney Port said she was "a pretty late-bloomer," as she and her 10th grade boyfriend had been dating for a while but she "was sooooo scared of kissing him."

Khloe Kardashian is a fan of back-up quarterbacks: "Matt Leinart is my number-one crush."

Kim Kardashian hearts George Clooney, while Kendra Wilkinson has moved way on from sixth graders.

Hank Baskett and the Philadelphia Eagles lost in this season's NFC Championship Game, falling to the Cardinals, 32-25.

But there's good news for the mediocre wide receiver: he won't need to share Kendra Wilkinson nude with anyone else ever again. Most likely.

Baskett and the former Playboy model are engaged, with a wedding scheduled for June. In a recent interview with E! Online, Kendra said she was almost definitely done posing naked for her ex-boyfriend's magazine.

"If the offer came up, I would definitely have to have a big talk with Hank - and a talk with Hank's family," Wilkinson said.

While men may be disappointed that they won't see this busty blonde in the buff again, at least Wilkinson isn't disappearing for good: her new reality show premieres this summer on E!.

"There's a lot of comedy because I am on my own for the first time in my life," said the beauty, who moved out of the Playboy Mansion last fall. "I have no one to help me. I have no butlers, no maids, no Hef to take care of the bills - no one doing my laundry!"

That's almost as horrible as never seeing Kendra naked again. Fortunately, you can relive some of her more lewd moments after this article's jump...

Sorry, fellas.

While The Girls Next Door individually grace three distinct covers of the February 2009 edition of Playboy, there is nary a Bridget Marquardt, Kendra Wilkinson or Holly Madison nude photo among the cover shots.

Still, Hugh Hefner's ex-girlfriends all look ravishing in their bikinis.

We'll ask again: Who is your favorite Girl Next Door?

Coming next month to Playboy: Aubrey O'Day nude! (Consider yourself warned.)

Soon, they will no longer be The Girls Next Door.

But before Bridget Marquardt, Kendra Wilkinson and Holly Madison officially exit the embrace of Hugh Hefner, they'll pose naked in the upcoming issue of Playboy.

With that in mind, it's not too late to chime in: Who is your favorite of Hef's ex-girlfriends?

Ever since Kendra Wilkinson revealed that she'd be marrying Hank Baskett at the Playboy Mansion, it seems ... everything is not always as it seems at the mansion.

If there's one thing Kendra is good at, besides posing nude a lot, it's making news, from her ridiculous fashion to her "shocking" US Weekly interview in which she talked about craving sex with other guys, to the wedding hullabaloo.

Kendra had stated that her nuptials with Hank Baskett would take place at the Playboy Mansion, with none other than Hugh Hefner himself giving the bride away.

Well, E! reports K-Dubs is now leaning towards something more private and family-oriented. You mean you wouldn't want to be given away by an old guy you used for fame/money even as he slept with two other girls throughout? Shocking.

GIRL NO LONGER NEXT DOOR: Will Kendra Wilkinson's wedding take place at the Playboy Mansion, or will Hank Baskett catch his beautiful bride in private?

Free from the confines of the Playboy Mansion, Kendra Wilkinson is finally speaking out about life as Hugh Hefner's girlfriend/sex slave.

In a recent discussion with Us Weekly, the fiancee of Hank Baskett stops the presses by admitting she didn't love intercourse with a senior citizen. Here are excerpts from the interview:

On sexual urges: "I had to have sex every now and then, so I had to kind of sneak it."

On sex with Hugh Hefner: We were "intimate."

On faithful fellow Girl Next Door: "[Bridget Marquardt] told me that she's been faithful all these years, and I was like, 'How the hell can you do that?' I had to have [sex] so I could feel my age, like a healthy human being."

On interaction with Hefner: "Besides the nights we went out, I only saw Hef, like, once a day walking through the halls to his office. There were never solo dates.""

On a weekly allowance of $1,000:"I hate putting my hand out, but we couldn't have jobs other than getting appearance fees. Hef was kind of like my best friend, but a sugar daddy at the same time.

On Karissa and Kristina Shannon, and Crystal Harris: "Now I'm totally against [Hefner's] way of life, with three girlfriends and all of that."
