Former Playboy model Kendra Wilkinson ‘Celibate’ since Hank Baskett Divorce

She’s been open about her experiences, reflecting on past mistakes, and focusing on the future.

From Playboy Model to Single Mom

Wilkinson, known for her candid personality and stunning looks, rose to fame as a Playboy model. 

She was married to Hank Baskett, a former professional football player, with whom she has two children – Hank Jr., 14, and Alijah, 9. 

However, their marriage was marked by a high-profile cheating scandal in 2014, leading to their divorce in 2018.

A Period of Celibacy

“It’s been so long since I’ve had sex — it’s been so long that I’ve had any,” Wilkinson admitted in a recent interview.

“Because I shamed myself on my sexuality too. Everyone sees me as a sex icon, so I shamed myself and I stayed away from anything sex. I almost became celibate.”

Addressing the Past

Wilkinson admitted that her past as a Playboy model had an impact on her self-image and relationship with her sexuality. 

Public perception of her as a sex icon added to her feelings of shame, contributing to her decision to abstain from sex.

Moving Onward and Upward

“I can’t go back in time and rewire history, but I’m here to move forward in my life and upward.”

Wilkinson said, expressing her determination to move past her past and focus on the future.

Relationship with Ex-Husband

Despite the tumultuous end to their marriage, Wilkinson maintains a positive relationship with Baskett. 

She shared her ability to forgive and expressed her desire to see Baskett succeed, praising his efforts as a father and business owner.

Prioritizing Self-Love

“Right now, I’m focused on my kids, the love that they’re receiving from me and life, and raising them — and self-love,” Wilkinson explained.

Wilkinson intends to focus on her mental health, emphasizing the importance of self-love in her journey.

A New Chapter

The real estate agent is optimistic about this new phase in her life, expressing hope and excitement for the future. 

She feels like she’s been given a chance for a fresh start, ready to build on what she has and nurture her life moving forward.

Focus on Motherhood

With her two children as her main focus, Wilkinson is determined to provide them with love and a stable environment. 

She expressed her pride in her children, describing them as “good, solid human beings.”

Looking Forward to Love

While marriage isn’t on the horizon for Wilkinson any time soon, she expressed a desire to start having fun again. 

She’s looking forward to exploring new relationships and experiences.

Reality TV and its Impact

Wilkinson and Baskett’s marriage was documented on the reality show Kendra On Top. 

Wilkinson admitted that the reality show added to the strain on their marriage, preventing them from truly understanding each other.

Final Thoughts

In the end, Wilkinson is looking forward to new beginnings. 

She’s focused on her children, her mental health and learning to love herself. She’s ready to rebuild and nurture what she has, and enjoy her life.

Her journey serves as a reminder that it’s never too late to start anew and prioritize self-love.
