Madison was only 21 years old when she moved into the Playboy mansion in 2001, and reportedly started dating Hefner, then 75, quite soon afterwards.
She left the house when her relationship with Hefner came to an end in 2008, and Maquardt, who moved in aged 28, left a year after Madison.
In a recent appearance on the Juicy Scoop podcast, the former Playboy bunnies told host Heather McDonald how they, along with other women, were pressured to have unprotected sex with Hefner.
Marquardt explained how, during their first orgy, she had planned on watching without participating.

She said: “I was still just gonna watch and then [one of the other Playmates] was like, ‘Aren’t you gonna go?’ It was like, ‘You need to go.’ And I was like, I would rather not. And she’s like, ‘Well, then you probably won’t be invited back.’
“So then I was like, OK. And I’d seen what everybody else was doing, so I knew that this was, like, a 10-second thing. I mean, definitely no more than a minute.”
Madison said that, while she had “blocked” most of it from her memory, she remembered women “trying to get it done as quickly as possible.”

Marquardt said: “You were hoping everyone’s in the same situation, and there is a doctor on staff. You’re hoping everybody is being checked out, and everybody is being - I say this in quotes - ‘monogamous’ to that relationship, but you don’t know.
“If there’s new girls coming up, which there often were, like, I just wanted to be first and be done. And I felt like that was the cleanest way.”
Horrifyingly, Madison also revealed how Hefner would take photos of the Playmates and circulate them without their permission.

In the Power: Hugh Hefner podcast aired earlier this year, she said: “[Hefner] was constantly taking photos of these women on his disposable camera. And these women were almost always intoxicated.
“I know I was heavily intoxicated.
“He would make copies of all the pictures and hand them out to everyone who had gone out that night. So if you were messed up and if you were in his bathtub with your top off and some other girl is doing some sexually explicit pose on you and he took a picture of that on his disposable camera, he'd make a copy and give it to everyone that night and put it in a scrapbook.”
Hefner's “mountain of revenge porn” left Madison feeling so threatened that she was “afraid to leave” his mansion.
Hefner's third wife confirmed she had found thousands of the photos Madison was talking about and “destroyed every single of of them for you and the countless other women in them.”

In the docuseries Secrets of Playboy, which aired this year, Madison and Marquardt opened up about their time with Hefner, who died in 2017 aged 91.
Madison recalled Hefner screaming at her when she got a haircut and labelling her "old, hard and cheap".
"[Madison] came down with red lipstick one time and he flipped out and said he hated red lipstick on girls [and to] take it off right away, even though other people could wear red lipstick and it didn’t seem to bother him," Marquardt said.
