Hugh Hefner is down a girlfriend. Hefner and Holly Madison, one of E!'s "The Girls Next Door," are no longer dating. Hefner said he's been "down in the dumps" about the split.

The 28-year-old model-actress stars in the reality series with Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt as one of the 82-year-old publisher's girlfriends who live with Hefner in the Playboy Mansion.

"If Holly says it's over, I guess it's over," Hefner said in a telephone interview Wednesday. "She's still here in the house. Until a few days ago, we were still sharing the same bed."

Hefner was surprised to hear Madison discussing their breakup, but acknowledged
he knew a split was imminent after he told Madison that they would never wed or have children.

In a video posted on TMZ.com Tuesday, Madison said she's no longer with Hefner. She also said she is "still filming stuff together" with Wilkinson and Marquardt.

Hefner said Madison learned the pair would never have children or get married six months ago, adding: "The fact that she was depressed after that, I didn't know at all. That was a revelation in the last days and weeks. Quite frankly, we thought when the time came, we would make a combined statement and we expected that combined statement would be somewhere in the weeks and months ahead."

"The Girls Next Door" premiered on E! in 2001 and is in its fifth season. Hefner said he and the three women are committed to a sixth season, but he plans to seek out new live-in lovers. Hefner said 19-year-old Playmate twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon are living in the mansion, but they're aren't his girlfriends -- yet.

"It's now apparent there will be some new faces in my personal life and on the show," he said. "There's been moments that I've been down in the dumps about all this, and (personal assistant) Mary (O'Connor) told me to cheer up and pointed out that there are girls lined up outside the front gate. At my age, that's hard to believe, but it seems to be true."

Hefner's relationship with his remaining two girlfriends -- Marquardt, 35, and Wilkinson, 23 -- may also be in flux. Hefner said Marquardt is in Europe filming the new Travel Channel series "Bridget's Beaches," and Wilkinson may soon move out of the mansion and get her own apartment. Hefner said E! is interested in spin-offs with all three women.

The Playboy mogul expects to maintain a business relationship and friendship with Madison, who -- along with Marquardt -- originally was one of seven girlfriends living with Hefner in 2001 after his separation from Kimberley Conrad. Wilkinson was later asked to move into the Playboy Mansion in 2004. Hefner said he may again seek out seven -- or more -- girlfriends.

"It's a big house," he said. "And I'm not going to live alone. I'm definitely not going to live alone."

Hef has had such a great life. There will be more pussy as soon as he clicks his fingers.

"And I'm not going to live alone. I'm definitely not going to live alone."

no shit lol several million girls would give anything to live with this guy

Madison is stunning .......

well this sort of amused me ...Hef's 82..............
"he plans to seek out new live-in lovers. Hefner said 19-year-old Playmate twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon are living in the mansion, but they're aren't his girlfriends -- yet."
robbing the cradle or what ?

his 'girlfriends' are pathetic

I feel sad for Hef.

I always wondered why hef doesnt post on gfy since playboy owns gfy.

I would really like to see a 19 year old GROWN WOMAN trying to sleep in a cradle...

I will only love you if you will marry me.

No shit! I bet he makes bank off that show.... and any spin-offs. :thumbsup

Sorry, but if it was a pick between Hef and Chris Angel, mindfreak me baby :L)

Holly had made comments plenty of times over the years about wanting to marry Hef and have kids. Not that I think they would have lasted anyway but if thats what she wants she deserves to have it.

:2 cents:

i sale big cradles... :2 cents:

He is so right! :winkwink:

I love Hef and Holly together!! It's kinda sad to see them seperate, but I mean at his age why would he want to marry again OR have children?? He's done all that already. Holly's still young and I undersatnd her feelings on that but she really should have known from the beginning!! She should be happy that she is and would have been his #1. :):):)

i kinda feel sorry for him, even though hes like the luckiest guy ever

Paying for sex is one thing paying for relationships is just fucking pathectic.

I am surprised at the haters' comments. If Hef has his business right, he should be making money off these girls, even though he is paying their upkeep and possibly salaries for their work on the tv show. Besides, assuming that you are still alive at eighty-two, how many of you are going to have anything fun going on at that advanced age?

Living the dream, feeling the flow, working it.

come to thailand and you can rent 7 hot girls to be your 'gf' for under 2k per month...

or daily for a lil over a hundred bucks..

I have always wondered how you haven't managed to put an eye out when trying to brush your teeth.

Hef why don't you answer my PMs??

awww, me too! poor guy seems devastated.

Hey Hef...I won't fuck you or suck you off but I can slum it for a bit and keep you company in the mansion. No use putting a room to waste.

I'm nice like that.

When you are free, give me a ring/ping please.

he looks good for 82! Could u imagine him if he got a facelift?? lol I'like to see the photoshops on that one!

19 year old twins??? hot!

who cares

I've been watching an eBay auction for a week now. It ends in 21 minutes. I'll call you once I'm done outbidding these fuckers. I'm prepared to double the current going price if needed. :)

So you are the one. Knock it off, I will let you play with it.

He's awesome! He's a cool guy and he has charisma. But he's old enough to be these girls' great great grandpa and shit lol. As long as he knows they are there for the financial security, the status of dating Hef, and the free house and meal ticket then that is cool. A lot of these young girls want a sugar daddy.

Does hef have any kids?

if she was willing to break up over the marriage issue, then she wasn't good enough for him anyways .... he'll find someone better for him :2 cents:

Really ?

damn right he`s living the dream. He probably has so many women in line to jump in that spot he doesn`t know which one to choose.

If I was a woman with an upcoming expiration date, I wouldn't waste it with an old man that didn't even want kids....Fuck that.....Then when he croaks, she's sitting there in her thirties childless and looking stupid...

I'm not mad at her....

And if she ever wants some thick vitamin/mineral/amino acid enriched sperm shot up inside of her, she needs to look me up...

With all due respect, how could any empathize with such a moronic situation?

She can marry me and have my kids
