Former glamour model Katie Price has defended the ongoing claims made against the late Playboy founder Hugh Hefner.
The 43-year-old took to Instagram to show her followers a book celebrating the American magazine’s 50th year.
Katie opened the book to show a large collage of different models who have appeared on the front cover throughout the years.
Saying that not many English girls have appeared on the front of the American magazine, she showed her own cover from 2000 before calling it an “achievement”.
However, she then went on to defend the late Hugh Hefner as past models have recently come out to make serious allegations against him.

Katie said: “All the stories that come out about Hugh Hefner, I have to disagree because I lived at the Playboy Mansion for six weeks. I lived and breathed there.
“He asked me to be a girlfriend and all of that, I’ve got millions of photos from all of our nights out.
“I have to say, the stories that I’ve read that girls have said about Hugh Hefner I definitely didn’t witness and I can say were not true at all.”

The mum-of-five then re-shared a video that former Love Island star and model Hannah Elizabeth shared in response to Katie’s statement on her own story.
Hannah said she agreed with Katie regarding the stories coming out about Hugh, who was known by Hef.
She told her followers that she used to visit the Playboy Mansion every single year and didn’t witness the claims being made.

Hannah said: “I was one of Hef’s painted ladies and all these stories coming out about Playboy are untrue and I did not witness any of that at my time in the mansion.”
Since Hugh Hefner passed away in 2017, many women who used to spend time in the Playboy mansion have made serious allegations against the founder of the magazine, including his past girlfriend Holly Madison.
