14 DAY TRIAL // Kendra Wilkinson is getting way more than her 15 minutes of fame with the Hank Baskett cheating scandal. While the scandal has pretty much ruined her family, it has been beneficial to her career and her reality series, so it really depends what's more important for the former Playboy bunny.
In a video from her reality show Kendra on Top, the model begins to complain to a group of people she considers close that she doesn't feel safe anymore. The team are there to help Kendra manage her crisis and assure her that their lips are sealed.
Kendra doesn't trust her friends anymore, gets her team to stop the leaks
But Kendra goes on to freak out in an expletive-filled rant and give examples of how vital information is “leaking” to the press. For example, she still doesn't know how the press got wind that she flushed her wedding ring down the toilet.
“People who I think are my friends are ratting me out. Like ‘Oh, Kendra flushed her ring down the toilet,’” she says angrily. "Who the [expletive] knows about that? Who the [expletive] is saying that [expletive]? It's someone around me. I can't trust anybody,” Kendra explodes.
It's amazing that Kendra actually complains on her show about violation of privacy when she insists on displaying her family drama in full on the very same show. The hypocrisy of her actions should become painfully evident to her.
When you insist on having cameras follow you around, documenting everything you say and do, you can't really complain about “leaks,” now can you?
Kendra is complaining about the very thing that is making her famous
But Kendra has significantly lost touch with reality in later weeks, becoming overly dramatic, to a point that more and more people now actually believe the rumors that the entire story was made up as a way to boost her show's ratings.
The most damning piece of evidence is the fact that her own mother and brother have accused her of fakery for the sake of ratings. The two were especially displeased when Kendra went in search of her estranged father in order to reconcile with him after years of not speaking to each other. Mother and brother were appalled by the move, especially since it was them who banished their father who was a violent alcoholic.
What about those recent audio leaks then? They sure came at the right moment
Further proof that Kendra's cheating scandal is being orchestrated by the producers of the reality series has come in the form of a new “leak.” Some phone recordings between Hank Baskett and Ava London, the transgender model he cheated on his wife with have magically appeared in the media.
As it happens, the recordings capture precisely the moment Hank begs Ava not to go to the press and her assurance that she doesn't want to. You'd think that when the authenticity of your version of the story was being questioned, such a recording would have been the best way to prove that you weren't lying.
But for some strange reason, Ava chose to leak them just now, right when the scandal was dying down and Kendra was ready to forgive Hank. Convenient, no?
