When Did Holly Madison Leave Playboy Mansion? Former Bunny Speaks Out

Now, however, as she continues building her career, Holly is speaking out about that era of her life in the new docuseries Secrets of Playboy, premiering on Monday, Jan. 24, at 9 p.m. on A&E.

“The reason I think the mansion was very cult-like, looking back on it, is because we were all kind of gaslit and expected to think of Hef as like this really good guy,” she says in a sneak-peek clip from the show. “And you started to feel like, ‘Oh, he’s not what they say in the media, he’s just a nice man.’”
