Holly Madison
Holly Madison moved into the Playboy Mansion in 2001, quickly working her way up to become one of Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends. Madison starred on the E! reality series The Girls Next Door, which captured the lives of Hefner’s girlfriends, from 2005 to 2009. She announced her split from Hefner in 2008, going on to star in her own reality series, Holly’s World, which ran for two seasons from 2009 to 2011.
Madison was married to Pasquale Rotella from 2013 to 2019. The exes share daughter Rainbow, born in 2013, and son Forest, born in 2016. Madison is the author of two New York Times bestselling memoirs: Down the Rabbit Hole (2015) and The Vegas Diaries (2016).
