It would’ve been a different story, like I might be a little more comfortable introducing them to someone now,” she continued. “I think with the last guy, I think I subconsciously knew something was off.”<\/p>\n Holly Madison claimed she ‘subconsciously’ may have had other reasons for not introducing her last boyfriend to her kids.MEGA<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n In her new relationship, Madison seemed open to moving things forward without waiting as long, agreeing that both timing and the right person made the difference.<\/p>\n “I think with the last one, the kids were just so young, like I didn’t want to complicate things anymore, especially since the divorce was so new,” she concluded.<\/p>\n Holly Madison confirmed her relationship to Steve Dimopoulos in March.MEGA<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n Madison confirmed her new relationship with Dimopoulos in March. At the time, she told a news outlet<\/a> that she wanted to keep the new romance “private” since her previous ex “cheated on her like crazy.”<\/a><\/p>\n “He was on dating apps,” she recalled. “He had told me, had told ex-girlfriends and had blasted on social media that he never wanted kids. But, then when I found his dating app profile, he had written ‘Not sure yet’ under the ‘Do you want kids?’ question. I’m like, ‘You are doing that just so you don’t scare any women away who might have stars in their eyes and want a relationship with you.’ That’s just hurtful and not honest.”<\/p>\n Read more at OK!<\/a><\/p>\n Get OK!’s biggest scoops and scandals delivered right to your inbox.
