Amid rumors of discord in the Playboy Mansion between Hugh Hefner‘s youngest girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson, and his other ladies, Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt, actress Anna Faris, who stars in the upcoming film “The House Bunny,” has been named Hef’s honorary fourth girlfriend.
Faris has been spending a good deal of time at the Mansion and in an interview last week said to watch for the September issue of Playboy.
Meanwhile Wilkinson is said to be planning her exit from “The Girls Next Door.” A friend of the 23-year-old says the rules at the Mansion, which include a curfew and a “no dating other men” policy, are just too hard for her to follow.
“She’s definitely out,” her friend said. “There are too many rules and Holly and Bridget want her gone. They’re so mean to her.”
“She goes out all the time really late and parties,” her pal says. “She’s definitely been linked with other guys . . . She likes rappers and sports guys.”
The friend also says that Kendra was never really one of Hef’s girlfriends, but was cast for the show because they needed “a young hot girl’ because Holly and Bridget are “old.” (Holly is 28 and Bridget is 34).
“Holly and Bridget hate her,” she told Page Six. “They’re totally jealous. She has her own empire now. She’s got a clothing line, a modeling career and an exercise empire. They’re just sitting there hangin’ with Hef.”
According to A rep for Playboy, “Hef has always been clear that the girls were his girlfriends before the show was even signed off on. This is all news to me. We’re going to be launching Season 5 of “The Girls Next Door” in the fall and everyone’s happy and having a good time.”
The air was noticeably chilly between Kendra and the other girls at the annual Fourth of July bash at the mansion. According to eye witnesses “They didn’t even exchange glances.”
“I don’t know what happened, but Kendra made sure to keep her distance.”
Kendra was also notably absent from a recent segment with Paul Heyman on “The Heyman Hustle.” Check out Holly’s response when Paul asks if they really hate Kendra!
So who do you believe? The friend who says Kendra was never really one of Hef’s girlfriends or the Playboy rep who says she was? Do you think Kendra is ready to fly the coop?
