Hefner and Holly Madison, one of EI's "The Girls Next Door," are no longer dating. Hefner said he's been "down in the dumps" about the split. The 28-year-old model-actress stars in the reality series with Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt as one of the 82-year-old publisher's girlfriends who live with Hefner in the Playboy Mansion. "If Holly says it's over, I guess it's over," Hefner said in a telephone interview Wednesday. "She's still here in the house. Until a few days ago, we were still sharing the same bed." Hefner was surprised to hear Madison discussing their break-up publicly, but acknowledged he knew a split was imminent after he told Madison that he had no plans to marry or have children with Madison. In a video posted on TMZ.com Tuesday, Madison said she's no longer with Hefner. She also said she is "still filming stuff together" with Wilkinson and Marquardt. Hefner said Madison learned the pair would never have children or get married six months ago, adding: "The fact that she was depressed after that, I didn't know at all. That was a revelation in the last days and weeks. Quite frankly, we thought when the time came, we would make a combined statement and we expected that combined statement would be somewhere in the weeks and months ahead." "The Girls Next Door" premiered on E! in 2001 and is in its fifth season. Hefner said he and the three women are committed to a sixth season, but he plans to seek out new live-in lovers. Hefner said 19-year-old Playmate twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon are living in the mansion, but they aren't his girlfriends — yet. been down in the dumps about all this, and (personal assistant) Mary (O'Connor) told me to cheer up and pointed out that there are girls lined up outside the front gate. At my age, that's hard to believe, but it seems to be true." "It's now apparent there will be some new faces in my personal life and on the show," he said. "There's been moments that I've Hefner's relationship with his remaining two girlfriends — Marquardt, 35, and Wilkinson, 23 may also be in flux. Hefner said Marquardt is in Europe filming the new Travel Channel series "Bridget's Beaches," and Wilkinson may soon move out of the mansion and get her own apartment. Hefner said E! is interested in spin-offs with all three women. The Playboy mogul expects to maintain a business relationship and friendship with Madison, who — along with Marquardt — originally was one of seven girlfriends living with Hefner in 2001 after his separation from Kimberley Conrad. Wilkinson was later asked to move into the Playboy Mansion in 2004. Hefner said he may again seek out seven — or more — girlfriends. 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. HOROSCOPES Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is an 8 Today is an 8 Thanks to quick and imaginative thinking, your group succeeds brilliantly. Was it luck or your extraordinary talent? A little of both. Take credit anyway. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 7 By now the confusion should start to clear up. The finish line is in sight. An old routine works very well. Give yourself a pat on the back. Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is #10 Your luck holds for one more day. Make the most of it. Write a list of all the things you've always wanted to be, do, have or help. Catch the magic of this moment by starting something. Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 7 A startling development helps you finish a job ahead of schedule. This is good. You can start your weekend early. Leo (July 23-Aug.22) Today is a 7 All you have to do is be charming. The others will provide everything you request, and it won't cost you a fortune. Just let them know what you want. Virgo (Aug.23-Sept.22) Today is an 8 The work is challenging, partly because the instructions are vague. You have to figure out what needs to be done and then do it, quickly. This is what you get for being in business for yourself. And if you're not yet, it's good practice. Ask for advice from a person you've trusted for years to help you with things. An old adage will work very well in this situation. You'll think of it yourself eventually, but it's more fun to do with a friend. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a 5 You have plenty of patience, luckily for all concerned. You can work out a compromise and keep costs low. Use what you already have instead of buying new. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is an 8 You're quite often the final authority in family disputes. You have a good way of looking at the big picture, without getting stuck in either side's point of view. You're often a bridge over troubled waters. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is an 8 Be careful with your spending. Now that you have a few bucks, you'll want to go out and buy everything you've had to do without. Some of that stuff is trash. Review your old dreams, and put in a few modifications. By now, you should be able to see more ways to actually get from fantasy to reality. Keep building bridges to your castles in the air. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18) Today is an 8 Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 5 It's OK to be careful now. The outcome looks positive. If you're following through on a project you've already started, the odds are even better.

In 2007 TSU's head coach, Dr. Thomas Freeman, held a debate camp for actors in the movie. The Great Debaters.
