    I didn't care for her before I heard her Playboy series. She really grew on me. Holly narrates these tragic stories with her own perspectives. She fills in the missing info and keeps your interest. Happy she got this gig. Saw her Vegas burlesque show years ago. Entertaining......

      Abuse can happen to anyone and it's such a slow burn when it happens you hardly notice at first. I think she thought it was going to be much more glamorous than it was. Ultimately it was a very controlling environment.

    Im stunned how many people cant see through her. She was absolutely desperate to marry him and have his children. He was "the love of her life and the best man in the world" until he refused her those things. Then, all of a sudden he was "a narcissist and an evil man". He wasn't that when she was begging him to marry her and sire her children....
    Dont get me wrong, i don't think he was a gokd man. But, i also wasn't the one that was desperate to marry him and have his children. She saw the paycheck and nothing more. Once she realized she was at her financial peak with him, then her opinions of him as a person changed over night.

    Oh please. Let’s all not forget when Holly returned to the mansion to try talk Hef out of marrying Crystal and to marry her instead! He refused to marry Holly, she didn’t get out of it what she thought she would, so it’s an insult to real victims to hear her now ‘playing this part’. All a person has to do is go watch her entire behaviour during the filming of ‘girls next door’, and of her being totally in charge of the relationship until he ran for the hills 😂 As far as her book about him, she is trying to cash in as much as possible to make the money she originally wanted. She is now divorced and still obsessed with him not choosing her. I loved that Kendra was so honest and told everyone the truth about Holly and that her ‘’victim claims’’ are BS.

Kendra never said she was a victim of Hef, she was honest in her part in it all, unlike Holly. We need to spare REAL victims their credibility, don’t insult them by putting Holly in with them as if being abused and a victim is one big joke.
