Holly Madison, 45, former Playboy model and Hugh Hefner’s ex-girlfriend, recently opened up about her experiences at the Playboy Mansion on a podcast with Owen Thiele. Madison, who dated Hefner from 2001 to 2008, described her sex life with him as surprisingly “normal” in private, despite their 53-year age gap. However, she admitted to hating the group sex environment, calling it “disgusting” and saying she made her discomfort clear.

She also shared odd details about the mansion, like trays with items such as Pepto Bismol and baby oil placed around the property. While Madison has spoken about negative relationship dynamics with Hefner and other women, she expressed fondness for her professional work with Playboy, especially posing for the magazine and producing pictorials.

Her candid reflections reveal both troubling and enjoyable aspects of her time at the mansion. Madison’s honesty offers insight into a world long shrouded in mystery.
