Playboy vet Kendra Wilkinson shocks fans with new family photo as her 15-year-old son TOWERS over her at 6’3

by

Kendra Wilkinson surprised her followers by sharing a recent photo of her with her two children, Hank, 15, and Alijah, 11.

Watching the Pepperdine versus UCLA basketball game on Sunday, she was struck by just how much taller her oldest child had become.

In a recent photo, Wilkinson’s teenage son towered over her, standing almost a foot taller. The 40-year-old mother happily posed with both of her children while sitting courtside.

She shared a photo with the caption, ‘Had a great time at the Pepperdine versus UCLA basketball game last night!’

People were quick to comment on how much her children had grown up since her family’s reality show, ‘Kendra on Top,’ which ran from 2012 to 2014.

‘How tall is he now?’ one fan asked, prompting Wilkinson, who is 5ft 4in, to reply: ‘6′3.’

Hank and Alijah’s father, former NFL player Hank Baskett, is 6 feet 4 inches tall, and their son appears to be growing to a similar height.

One fan commented on how much Kendra’s children had grown, noting they hadn’t seen them since the show aired and jokingly wondering if that meant they were getting older too. Kendra replied with a laughing emoji and a red heart.

People commented that the two looked ‘absolutely gorgeous’ as adults, and many noticed a strong resemblance to their famous parents.

‘Baby girl is your twin. Your family is beautiful,’ another raved. 

Oh my gosh, everyone used to say Alijah was totally Wilkinson’s little twin! It was so cute! But now people are playfully pointing out she’s actually the shortest one in her family now, which is just… adorable! I can’t get over how much she’s grown, even if she is a little shorter than everyone else. It’s still perfect!

Wilkinson wrote back: ‘Yep. Officially the short one.’ 

Kendra became well-known at 18 years old on E!’s The Girls Next Door, and later starred in her own reality shows, Kendra and Kendra on Top.

She’s also been a contestant on shows like Dancing with the Stars and Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars.

After her divorce from Baskett, she decided to pursue a career in real estate. She completed the necessary courses and successfully passed the California real estate exam in June 2020.

The Discovery+ docuseries, Kendra Sells Hollywood, followed Kendra as she navigated the challenges of being a new real estate agent in the competitive Los Angeles market.

It lasted for two seasons from 2021-2023. 

In September, she experienced a panic attack that led to hospitalization, and she shared details about it with People magazine in 2024.

She described feeling completely overwhelmed and panicked, unable to understand her thoughts, physical sensations, or why she was crying. She felt like she’d reached her lowest point.

The TV personality also candidly revealed she was ‘dying of depression’ and ‘went into psychosis.’ 

She admitted she’d felt hopeless and struggled with wanting to continue living. Reflecting on her twenties was difficult, as she had to confront painful experiences. She believes her involvement with Playboy had a deeply negative impact on her life.

Even though things have been tough, she says she’s learned to accept herself, feels more comfortable with her body, and now focuses on being a parent above all else.

Okay, so everyone thinks ‘wild’ means crazy parties, but for me, it was about really looking at myself, facing all the stuff I’d been avoiding. It was intense! And honestly? I feel like the best mom ever now. I’m pouring everything I have into my kids, and into taking care of myself too. It’s like I finally unlocked something, and it feels amazing.
