Hugh Hefner

Hugh Hefner

Hugh Hefner was the Playboy founder whose mansion and magazine defined an era of pop culture. Bridget Marquardt was one of his live-in girlfriends during The Girls Next Door years, and she met her future husband Nicholas Carpenter at the mansion. Her journey from that chapter to a private marriage and podcasting career is the backdrop of this story’s happy ending.
