Kendra is an American reality television series that debuted on the E! cable network, on June 7, 2009. The program is the first spin-off of The Girls Next Door, and documents the life of model Kendra Baskett, a former girlfriend of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, after moving out of the Playboy Mansion, including her engagement and marriage to football player Hank Baskett and her adjustment to being a first-time mother.

On March 21, 2012, Kendra announced that she had parted ways with E!, as the network "went in a different direction".[1] This was following comments made by then-new E! president Bonnie Hammer in July 2011, where she vowed to "get rid of the more Playboy trashy element" from the network[2] while the final season was completing production. This pledge also led to the cancellation of Holly's World.

The series was then followed up with Kendra on Top, which aired on WE tv from 2012–2017.
