The dispute centers around comments made by Madison on the “Girls Next Level” podcast with Bridget Marquardt, where they discussed Hefner’s book, “Only Say Good Things: Surviving Playboy and Finding Myself.” Madison implied that Hefner exploited her late husband, Hugh Hefner, by keeping him heavily medicated in his later years.
