Kendra Wilkinson, 41, publicly shared her emotional distress on Instagram Stories Sunday after a real estate client terminated their professional relationship. The former Playboy model, who transitioned to a career in real estate, posted a series of clips expressing her frustration and sadness over the setback.
"When a client fires you ... after all the work you put in," Wilkinson wrote in text accompanying one of her posts, according to Daily Mail. "Ya, I'm struggling today guys." The San Diego-born personality appeared to be weeping as she discussed the challenges she has been facing.
"We're living in a world of struggle right now - I know that," Wilkinson said in one clip. "But it's just ... it's so hard - it's so hard to know." She indicated that a combination of issues had been taking a toll on her, stating, "I feel like I'm doing everything right in my life. I'm raising my kids and putting them first. I'm doing everything good - I'm a good person. It's just such a struggle right now."
Wilkinson detailed that she had been dealing with "fighting people that work with me, getting fired [and] people being rude and mean." She also mentioned her children, Hank IV, 16, and Alijah, 12, with ex-husband Hank Baskett.
Later, Wilkinson posted another update appearing to be in better spirits, expressing gratitude for the supportive messages she received from her followers. "Hey, guys, I want to thank you so much for the prayers, and the well wishes, and the thoughts, and everything, and all the positive messages I'm getting," she said. "Got to get back up, right? I do have to brush my hair. But it's time to fight a new one, and live and enjoy, and be grateful for the things I do have - I love you guys; thank you."
Wilkinson initially gained fame through appearances in Playboy magazine and on the reality show "The Girls Next Door" from 2005 to 2009. After her 2009 marriage to Hank Baskett, she moved away from the Playboy Mansion and pursued other reality television ventures. Following her divorce from Baskett in 2018, she obtained her real estate license, with her early career in the field documented on the Discovery+ series "Kendra Sells Hollywood."
