Rosanna Davison said she has no regrets at doing a Playboy shoot though she admitted her younger brothers were “tormented”.
The former Miss World described Hugh Hefner’s infamous Hollywood mansion as “cosy and “homely” and said they watched a black and white movie together.
In August two former Playboy Bunnies spoke about drug-fuelled orgies at the mansion and feeling disgusted by the tycoon’s seedy bedroom.
But Rosanna – the first Irish woman ever to do Playboy – said her experience of the magazine founder’s notorious lavish lifestyle was more wholesome.

She said: “It was in 2013, do you know it was cosy and homely.
“Because my German Playboy spread had gone into the American Playboy in 2013 Hugh Hefner invited me along.
“We had dinner, not just me and him there was a group of people there, and then we watched a black and white movie in his home cinema.”
She added: “I did have a peek around, I was very nosy. There were a few pictures of boobs on the walls, I will say that.”
Rosanna, 38, said she was “glad” she did Playboy and her family were supportive.
Appearing on Angela Scanlon’s Ask Me Anything, she revealed: “They were very encouraging, but it was my two younger brothers.
“My poor brothers were tormented by their friends texting pics and so on.
“My now husband Wes, we weren’t even engaged at that stage, was very encouraging.”
The mum-of-three admitted to keeping a stash of the German Playboy with her on the cover – but her kids ripped them up. She said: “I forgot they were there... thankfully they didn’t recognise me.”
Rosanna recalled meeting Wes at Club 92 and how he contacted her weeks later on Bebo.
She said: “All my friends were saying ‘you’re crazy to talk to a man on the internet. He could be a serial killer. What are you getting yourself into?’.
“Look how things have changed.”
And asked about the Celtic Tiger years, she said: “There were a couple of years when I was 21/22 when there was a lot going on.
“All the parties and the events, and Krystle [nightclub] opened around then so yeah, there was a lot of nights out. But then we all know what happened and it came to a halt.”
