Madison appeared on Oprah’s Where Are They Now? on Saturday, Sept. 26 and opened up about the Playboy mansion and why she decided to write a book about it.
“I was really inspired to tell my story because over the years since I left the mansion, I would meet fans who would ask me if I missed the mansion, and wasn’t it so fun and so great,” Madison said. “It is very important for me to show people what it was really like.”
Madison revealed a lot of her playboy mansion secrets in her memoir, Down the Rabbit Hole: Curious Adventures and Cautionary Tales of a Former Playboy Bunny including Hefner offering her drugs and leaving his will out the day she was moving out. It said he was leaving her $3 million.
“It was very clear to me that he’d left that out for me to see, because he was hoping it would change my mind and get me to stay,” Madison said. “But it just kinda disgusted me more than anything because all he can do is say, ‘Oh, here, I’m gonna throw you some money to get you to stay.’ It just grossed me out.”
According to US Weekly, Madison recently got a second book deal.
