Hugh Hefner’s ex Holly Madison has finally addressed a longstanding theory that there were tunnels beneath the Playboy Mansion that ‘led to Diddy’s house’.

Madison, now 45, was Hefner’s ‘number one girlfriend’ back when she lived at the infamous residence in the 2000s.

More recently, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, 55, is currently on trial for sex trafficking, but he has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution. He is accused of using his business empire as a racketeering enterprise that enabled and concealed the abuse of women over two decades. If convicted, he faces a sentence of 15 years to life imprisonment.

During an interview about her time in the Playboy Mansion, Madison discussed a theory claiming that Diddy’s home and Hefner’s home were secretly connected.

Speaking to Keke Palmer on her podcast Baby, This is Keke Palmer, the author and advocate said: “You know, my mind is so open now after talking about all the things I’ve tackled about that I always leave space for something could be true and I just don’t know - like the one thing I love to talk about is people talk about there being tunnels under the mansion that, like, went to Diddy’s house.”

After Palmer reacted in shock to the mention of Combs, Madison continued: “Not to my knowledge. Like, could there have been tunnels that I don’t know about? Maybe. Well also, the story doesn’t really make sense. too. because I don’t think he moved to that neighbourhood until, like, 2014, and he was, like, not really that active - this was long after I was gone.

“But I don’t know - as far as I know, no tunnels.”

Madison then claimed that people leave comments on her social media pages accusing her of being a ‘tunnel denier’, and said she would be the ‘first to tell you if there are tunnels’.

“That would be a trip,” Palmer responds while laughing.

Madison previously opened up about her sex life with Hefner, who passed away aged 91 in 2017. Speaking on the In Your Dreams Podcast with Owen Thiele, Madison explained what it was like sharing Hefner with his other girlfriends at the time, Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson, as well as the overall experience.

Madison also stated that she was previously ridiculed on social media if she ever spoke about her sex life, because of the age gap.

She added: “I think everybody has this real horror story of how gross an old man's body must be.

“I feel like there was a time when I couldn't post anything without some dumba** in the comments like, 'Oh, old balls', or something like that and look, maybe some people's balls do get old and nasty, but I've never seen such a thing.”
