"I wrote the book not because I had an axe to grind or because I wanted a reaction from him. I just wanted to tell my story and hopefully inspire other women if they're in a bad relationship or a bad situation, to move on and not feel branded by a choice they made or a person they're known to be with," Madison said.

Madison, who has two-year-old daughter Rainbow with husband Pasquale Rotella, said she decided to open up about her experience seven years after leaving the mansion as it had become "the elephant in the room.
