Karissa Shannon Confirms Twin Incest Demands at Playboy Mansion: "We Faked It Every Time"

Karissa Shannon is speaking up, and she’s not holding back. In a new interview with Page Six, the former Playboy Playmate confirmed what Crystal Harris previously claimed: Hugh Hefner demanded incestuous acts between Karissa and her twin sister Kristina. Karissa said she assumed people already knew, adding that the twins only faked the acts and that“it was horrible.”She claims Hefner believed it was real and that he also forced a threesome on the sisters for their 19th birthday.

Karissa lived at the mansion from ages 18 to 20, and she described the pressure as constant. According to her, Hefner told the twins that if they really loved each other, they’d do it together. She also revealed she secretly had an abortion years ago after becoming pregnant with Hefner’s child.

Today, Karissa’s life looks nothing like those years. She’s back in Michigan, engaged, and pregnant with a son due in April. She’s also talked openly about her sobriety and healing. The interview adds another chapter to the ongoing cultural reckoning around the Playboy Mansion and how young women were treated there.
