Holly Madison chose not to show her and Hugh Hefner's IVF journey on . ET's Lauren Zima spoke with Madison and Bridget Marquardt, who both appeared on the reality series, ahead of the release of their new podcast, , and Madison revealed why she kept her efforts for a baby off of the show.«I didn’t really think about including it just because, even when I did go on to have kids, I’m always the one who doesn’t want to tell anyone I’m pregnant until after the three-month mark,» Madison tells ET.
«I just want to be safe.»As such, when Madison appeared on from 2005 to 2009, she didn't want her and Hefner's IVF journey to play out on TV. «I didn’t want all that scrutiny on something that may or may not work,» she explains.While Madison was so worried about IVF not working that she didn't want the process to air on TV, the fact that it didn't lead to her having a baby with Hefner is something she's now grateful for.«I mean, obviously, looking back I’m so glad it didn’t work 'cause I went on to have the kids of my dreams,» Madison, who shares Rainbow, 9, and Forest, 6, with her ex-husband, Pasquale Rotella, says.Like Madison, Marquardt was focused on a future family while on the series, but her baby planning wasn't shown for an entirely different reason.«I did egg retrieval while we were at the mansion,» Marquardt tells ET.
«I advocated for them to show it 'cause I thought it was a really important message to send. They refused to film it and said that it showed me planning for a life outside the mansion and that’s not something that they wanted on the show.»The fact that Marquardt's egg retrieval didn't make it onto the series was not a surprise to Madison.«The show, I think it was very surface,» she says.

Because I was talking to him and he started fake crying,’” she continued, noting that Wilkerson’s query came as a comfort. “I was like, ‘Finally, I know I’m not insane,’” Madison recounted.
