Kendra Leigh Baskett (Wilkinson) is an American model, TV personality, businesswoman and an author. She is well known for her TV series, ‘The girls next door’. In 2008, a magazine announced that she got engaged with her future husband, Hank Baskett. Kendra denied this gossip and after a month, she accepted. She said that Hank proposed her at the Space Needle and she accepted.
The marriage took place at the Playboy Mansion and they were paid $120,000 by a magazine to cover their wedding pictures. In 2010, a video got circulated that Kendra was lovemaking with her former boyfriend. It was said that the video was shot when she was 18 and was in relationship with her high school love, Justin Frye. She then paid 680 thousand dollars to get the rights of the video.
Just before the birth of her second child, she was seen with, Shawne Merriman, behind Hank’s back. She said that this is the first time she met him after she dumped him during a party. It is said that she went all the way to San Diego to be with Shawne and Hank was in the house with her child. Shawne announced that they have a volatile affair and they have feeling for each other. She was eight months pregnant when this rumor came out. Hank did not comment of this action of his wife. This incident was not strong enough to pull their relationship to divorce.
After four years into the marital life, their relationship took a lot of bumps. She once met a person she loved before in a gym and badly wanted one day of freedom to be with him. She started seeing a therapist about this issue. A source said that he has seen Hank and Kendra discuss that they should not have been married and Hank replied that he think that it is better that they both stay single. Then, they agreed on having an open relationship.
Their marital life hit a big bump when Kendra tried to sell a tape for money, in 2010. The tape was made two years ago with Hank. Hank was embarrassed and angry by this incident and there were many rumors that the couple is going to be separated. It is also said that she was the one who disclosed the tape of her and Justin Frye.
She never felt embarrassed talking about her sexual relationships with her former partner. Hank had never encouraged it or has talked about his girlfriends in any interview. In one interview, she made a clear description of her first experience with Hugh Hefner. Though there were many rumors about separation due to the scandals and the explicit tape issues, none were proved. There was no information about Hank or Kendra filing for a separation. Their relationship seems to be very smooth. Hank never talked about Kendra, his relationship with her and their marital life problems to the public. Kendra has also not talked about her marital life in any interview but, has talked a lot about her physical relationship experiences.
