A reality television star builds fame by living on camera, as Bridget Marquardt did on The Girls Next Door alongside Holly Madison at the Playboy Mansion. Marquardt later reinvented herself as a podcaster with Girls Next Level and Ghost Magnet. Her private marriage to Nicholas Carpenter, her partner of 18 years, marks the happiest chapter yet of that long public evolution.
