Actor and model Pamela Anderson has lifted the lid on how she came to the realisation that she had to leave the infamous Playboy Mansion.
Anderson, best known for her acting roles in TV in shows such as Baywatch and V.I.P, made her name as a Playboy model, featuring as the magazine's Playmate of the Month in its February 1990 issue, while also being on more Playboy covers than any other model in history.
However, in an interview back in 2018, she revealed her reasons for leaving Playboy behind.

She's not the first to reveal bizarre stories from behind the doors of the Playboy mansion, with former Playboy Bunnies coming out with claims in recent years following founder Hugh Hefner's death in 2017.
As part of her episode of Life Stories with Piers Morgan, Anderson was completely candid with questions thrown her way as she opened up about her time at Playboy.
One of her admissions included the reasoning behind her leaving the Playboy Mansion behind, which all began when she followed a group of girls and Hefner upstairs in the infamous abode.

Speaking to Morgan, she began: "I followed them upstairs. I thought, 'What could be going on up here?'"
"Seven girls, one at a time with Hef," she revealed.
"I was stood at the end of the bed watching them and then I realised they were watching me. I thought, 'This is not a movie. I need to leave'."

The uncomfortable and bizarre moment didn't knock the friendship between Hefner and Anderson though, as she revealed how close they were shortly after his death in 2017.
She took to Instagram, describing the Playboy founder as the 'most important person in (her) life' apart from family, crediting him with kickstarting her career.
Anderson went on: "Everything anyone loves about me is because you understood me. Accepted me and encouraged me to be myself... You said the magazine was about a girl like me.
"I will miss your everything. Thank you for making the world a better place. A freer and sexier place. You were a gentleman charming, elegant, chivalrous and so much fun," she concluded.
