Kendra Wilkinson Admits Being Suicidal After Hank Baskett's Cheating Scandal
Kendra Wilkinson has been through a lot early this year as she dealt with postpartum depression after the birth of her daughter Alijah, and to make matters worse, she also learned that her husband, Hank Baskett, cheated on her with a transsexual while she was pregnant. And in a new clip for her new reality show, Wilkinson admitted that she considered taking her own life after what she's been through.
For the first episode of her new reality show titled "Kendra on Top," a promo for the show was released which shows Wilkinson wandering around their home.
"I was at a real low," said Wilkinson in the clip. "I even questioned my own life. If it wasn't for breastfeeding Alijah, the bond I had with her, I feel like I would have probably ended my life. I felt like I'm not even supposed to be here."
In an interview with Us Weekly, Baskett also said that he had thoughts of suicide after his scandal.
"I hit bottom. My greatest fear is losing my family," said Baskett. "That's all I live for. For the past two years, I've gone through a struggle with depression, and during that time I lost the ability to open up to my best friend, Kendra."
However, things seem to be improving in their relationship as it was recently reported that Wilkinson has agreed to take back her husband. On the Nov. 21 episode of "Kendra on Top," the couple went on a date night, and Baskett offered his wife a yellow diamond ring and asked her to be his best friend again. In turn, Wilkinson took the ring and offered it to Baskett, and she proposed that he move back into their house.
Wilkinson is currently in the Australian jungle for the reality show, "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here." In a recent episode, the model received a letter from her husband in which he told her, "I'm missing you so much Kendra. It's hard to fall asleep at night not having you by me. This time apart solidifies even more the feeling inside me that I can't live without you."
Wilkinson cried while she read the letter, and later told the others with her that receiving it gave her joy back.
