Jan. 16 2009, Published 9:21 a.m. ET
Former Girls Next Door Kendra Wilkinson is speaking up about her relationship with Hugh Hefner. No longer with the iconic Playboy, Kendra is apologizing for comments she made about her time spent living at the mansion with fellow girlfriends Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt.
"I'm more upset at myself with what I said," Kendra tells E! News about an explosive interview earlier this week in which the 23-year-old blond dished on her former love's "lifestyle" and revealed details of her infidelity and Hef's imposed curfew times.
"I'm really bad at interviews and anyone who knows me knew I meant no harm," she said. "I'm a goofball. Mostly I'm very sorry to have hurt Hef. Playboy made me who I am and Hef has done more for me than anyone else."
Wilkinson says she drove up to the mansion to personally apologize to Hefner and the house staff.
When asked how Hef reacted to the controversial article, Wilkinson said he was hurt by what was said. "Hef understands me better than anyone and loves me no matter what. I am very thankful for him."
"I mostly wanted the article to reveal how I am trying to live my life now that I'm engaged to Hank (Baskett)," she said. "I was hoping to come across more conservative and show my fans that I'm growing up naturally." She went on to say that Baskett was by her side throughout this entire ordeal. "He made me feel so much better about myself.he's the best thing to ever happen to me, besides Hef," she says.

Regarding her relationships with former "girlfriends" Madison and Bridget , Wilkinson said she personally apologized to them as well. "We are all doing so great these days, everyone is happy and doing their own thing."
And as for a possible wedding between Madison and current love, Mindfreak's Criss Angel, Wilkinson said she is very happy for them both. "I like Criss very much and it wouldn't surprise me at all if they got married."
"We will all be together forever," she said of the Girls Next Door foursome.
