Kendra Wilkinson’s return to reality TV appears to be TrendPulsepending.
The 39-year-old may be 15 years from her time on The Girls Next Door—instead pivoting to real estate in 2020—but that doesn’t mean she closed the door on sharing her life with cameras.
“There are two shows I'm working on I'll be announcing in a few weeks,” she revealed to E! News correspondent Will Marfuggi Sept. 26 at DirecTV’s Gets Real red carpet. “I love doing TV, so I'm not going to stop doing that. It just has to be the right concept.” (For more with Kendra, tune into E! News tonight, Sept. 30.)
And in response to whether she’d ever consider joining a show such as Selling Sunset, she added, “All that's fun, but I have two other shows I'm working on that will be so fun for the audience.”
But while Kendra is still keeping tight-lipped on the specifics, she did tease looking for love onscreen. “You know, no one has ever seen me date yet,” she explained. “No one has seen this other show concept that we're working on. So I'm really looking forward to announcing what I have in store for you guys.”
This is not to say the return to the genre will be easy. In fact, the former Playboy Playmate joked that attending the carpet was like going back to her 20s.
“I don't remember the last time I felt like Hollywood, because I'm in real estate every single day,” she explained. “And now I'm like on a different planet right now. Like I don't watch TV, I don't watch anything, no movies, no reality.”
Instead, Kendra is enjoying this stage of motherhood with kids Hank Baskett Jr., 14, and daughter Alijah Baskett, 10, whom she shares with ex-husband Hank Baskett.
“They are thriving,” she gushed. “They are the good, easiest part of my life. People say that all the time, but it this is a fact: my kids are good kids. They're just making my life good, fun, exciting, loving.”
She joked, “Everything else is like a work in progress. Being a mom is a work in progress.”
In fact, the Kendra on Top alum added that her kids seem to have things figured out much more than she feels like she did at their age.
"My kids are anything but me as a teenager, thank God,” she noted. “I have taught them everything they need to know and more to not be me as a teenager. I was crazy from like the ages of 13 through now—39, I just started growing up."
And in the years since she and Hank filed for divorce in 2018 after nine years of marriage, Kendra has noted how she and the former NFL star have hit their co-parenting stride—leaving her with extra time to reconnect with herself after recent mental health struggles.
"We're co-parenting so good," Kendra said of Hank to E! News in June 2023. "The kids are so happy. I'm just trying to figure out who I am right now. Like, it's a process. It's a lot. So, I'm really getting to know who I am right now, and it takes a lot of time to do that."
