Playboy bunnies say Hefner coerced ‘unprotected’ orgies: ‘I just wanted to be done’

Two former Playboy bunnies have revealed disturbing details about what took place between the sheets during their time at Hugh Hefner’s house.
Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt both dated the late mogul and were considered to be his “main girlfriends,” alongside Kendra Wilkinson.
Surprising new revelations about the Playboy Mansion from behind closed doors have been revealed in an explosive 10-part A&E documentary, “Secrets of Playboy,” that aired early this year.
But during an appearance on Heather McDonald’s “Juicy Scoop” podcast Tuesday, the two former Playmates further elaborated on just how pressured they felt to have unprotected romps with Hefner.
One memory that stood out most to Marquardt was witnessing her first orgy in the mansion, which she had planned to watch — without participating in it.
“I was still just gonna watch and then [one of the other Playmates] was like, ‘Aren’t you gonna go?’ It was like, ‘You need to go.’ And I was like, ‘I would rather not.’ And she’s like, ‘Well, then you probably won’t be invited back,'” recalled Marquardt, who was 28 when she moved into the mansion.

I mean, definitely no more than a minute.”
The former Playboy bunny said that while she actively tried to “block” the experience from her memory, she does remember “trying to get it done as quickly as possible.”
“You were hoping everyone’s in the same situation, and there is a doctor on staff. You’re hoping everybody is being checked out, and everybody is being — I say this in quotes — ‘monogamous’ to that relationship, but you don’t know,” she explained.
“If there’s new girls coming up, which there often were, like, I just wanted to be first and be done. And I felt like that was the cleanest way.”

The documentary unfurled shocking allegations about the cultlike hedonism that surrounded Hefner and reportedly involved drugs, orgies, sexual assault — and even bestiality.
Madison, who was Hefner’s girlfriend from 2001 until 2008, said the atmosphere felt “cultlike” at times.
She explained, “We were all kind of gaslit and expected to think of Hef as, like, this really good guy,” she said in a show clip. “You started to feel like, ‘Oh, he’s not what they say in the media — he’s just a nice man.’”
Meanwhile, one of Hefner’s former partners was among those who recently opened up about the dark side of the media magnate and his empire.
“He was a predator,” Hefner’s ex-girlfriend Sondra Theodore, 65, told The Post. “I watched him, I watched his game. And I watched a lot of girls go through [the Playboy Mansion] gates looking farm-fresh, and leaving looking tired and haggard.”
