It appears that Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett are finally getting that divorce that they’ve been talking about for multiple seasons of their reality show Kendra On Top!
On Monday, Kendra posted a tearful video to Instagram Live in which she seemed to be saying that this was the day she was filing for divorce.
“I’m so scared, but I have to get strong for my kids,” the former Playboy star said. “I believed in forever, I really did…I guess it’s just not meant to be.”
While crying, Kendra panned over to a photo from her wedding, which took place nearly nine years ago at the Playboy Mansion.
“I believed,” she captioned the image.
Kendra’s video (which also featured footage of her just crying silently for the camera…as you do) continued with Kendra talking more about the end of her marriage.
“I never thought I’d see the day, really.”
Later, she showed her 2.6 million Instagram followers an outfit she had laid out, captioning the photo, “Picking this outfit was hard. shaking the whole time.” Her next photo showed what appeared to be some sort of conference room (perhaps in a lawyer’s office?). Kendra captioned that photo with, “Here we go” and a sad face emoji.
As we’ve previously reported, Kendra has been airing her marital problems out on social media for months. In January, she wrote that this year “has been the hardest of her life.”
While Kendra has cried “divorce” before, (such as when Hank allegedly had an affair with a transgender model back in 2014), this time it appears to be the real thing.
“Today will be the saddest, scariest day of my life,” Kendra tweeted on Monday. “I will have to be the strongest I’ve ever been. Today my rebirth begins.”
According to People magazine, Hank has moved out of the house that he shares with Kendra and their two childrren.
Hank has remained silent on the topic. At press time, his Twitter profile photo still features him with Kendra.
After Kendra’s emotional posts, her mother Patti Wilkinson (whom Kendra has been estranged from on-and-off for years) tweeted a message that seemed to be aimed at her daughter.
“This life we all live throws us curve balls that tests our strength & abilities,” Patti wrote. “Being surrounded by love and support we can do anything we set our minds to. The heart will heal & life will go on. It’s going to be OK.”

She is so freaking unattractive and whiny and ugh.
Man this woman is an attention seeker. She needs to talk to her friends or her husband, not to the world. We shouldn’t be seeing this, but anything for attention and ratings.
My thoughts exactly, she seems to be in need of some psychological help and she’s not going to get it from Instagram
Agreed. I have lost the ability to care about her feelings. Hank seemed like a decent dude and put up with her crazy (and Heff spooge breath) unless I missed something he did. Her mom, on the other hand, is a POS. That is who she should be divorcing…
Looking at the comments, a lot of us are on the same page with this 🙂
? ? ATTENTION ?? Attention ?? give me attention please
Oh please if you want something to cry about take a look at my school loans ?
Oh FFS how old is this chick now? GROW UP! How about maybe actually parenting your kids for once in their lives? The world doesn’t revolve around you, you attention whore. It’s like she’s forever a 15 year old drama queen. This is beyond pathetic.
If the whole cheating scandal with a transgender really was fake that is a horrible thing they did to the kids. That is out there. The lie is not out there. There are articles that say he cheated on his wife. Like i said if they thought this through they really thought it was a good idea. Is he such a loser that he would let people say he slept with a man as a joke to get ratings? The kids will see and the parents will be like no you guys daddy and mommy played a joke. Nah. Eff that.
She’s like the boy who cried wolf- I bet they end up trying to “work it out”
When my marriage breaks up, the first thing I do is plaster my raw (or in this case, fake and dramatic) emotions all over social media for people to see.
Well duh..why would you do it any other way?
Fame whores!
OK, this will sound really stupid, but I am so disappointed in Kendra. I watched her back in the day on Girls Next Door and she had a real free spirit about her that I have seldom seen in others. I think that back then, she would have easily handled anything that life threw at her, but now she is so far down the famewhore road that she has been permanently corrupted. She’s lost that spark that made her so appealing, and now she’s just another miserable, broke has-been. The depths she continually sinks to to remain in the ‘spotlight’ are so pathetic and I miss the old her.
Ugh, I was annoyed by her the time she was still living with Hugh in the mansion…..now I know why. She is the ONLY ONE out of those girls who still keeps grasping for straws of “fame”. Divorce or not, just get lost.
Tori Spelling #2, You’re a pathetic joke
These two are quite gifted at creating never ending drama out of thin air. The whole Transexual model bull shit a few years ago? And the past week of over dramatic social media posts. Either divorce or don’t—I don’t particularly care. I just feel badly for their kids who are old enough to know what’s going on and it’s certainly not healthy for any of them.
Still not buying it until the papers are signed….Her show must be starting up again and she needs a juicer storyline….I know me personally I stopped watching her show after that transgender mess. That storyline was so fake….as soon as she said she flushed her wedding ring down the toilet, I knew his “affair” was a bunch of BS, and was only being used for ratings.
This is so fake. I guess she will do anything to bring in money. Her last 2 reality shows were a joke. Hank was obviously acting. I don’t know why she’s getting a divorce all I see her do was lay around and go to parties. All about the money.
That was so fake it’s offensive. Kendra, stop. You’re making a fool of yourself. Get the divorce and move on. Stop attention seeking.
Either leave him, or don’t. Work things out, or don’t. But stop making a public spectacle of your marriage and begging for attention and validation at every turn. Every move seems more like a media ploy than a sincere feeling or reaction.
Coincidence that chanum Tatum and Jenna announced their separation today??????????? Hmmmm
That was the fakest_shit_ever.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they really are getting divorced, but those crocodile tears were rediculous. Keep grasping at straws K-Dub, no one cares!
