Where Girls Next Door & Holly’s World star Angel Porrino is now- as Holly Madison’s BFF is engaged & mom to Roman, 12
GIRLS Next Door and Holly’s World star, Angel Porrino is now living a tamer life with her fiance and son after spending years working in the spotlight.
She is best known for being Holly Madison’s personal assistant on Holly’s World and a star of Girls Next Door.
Angel grew up in Las Vegas, so being in shows and living a glamorous life was in her blood.
As a child, she studied dance until freshmen year of high school.
In high school, Angel went on to be a cheerleader, student body president, and softball player.
BEST FRIENDS FOR LIFE
In 2007, Angel met Holly Madison, who was one of Hugh Hefner’s girlfriend’s at the time, when she went to LA to test for Playboy.

Angel appeared on Girls Next Door for two seasons.

Then, they continued their friendship and continued keeping each other employed when they appeared together on Holly’s show, Holly’s World.
Angel was Holly’s assistant until she fired her, but she did it for a good reason.
Holly wanted to help her friend get back into modeling.
They are still close friends to this day.
LAS VEGAS AND CAREER MOVES
After spending some time in Los Angeles, Angel moved back to Las Vegas.
She took up the mantle for Holly as the lead role of Peepshow, a burlesque show at Planet Hollywood, for a week.
The producers loved her so much that they asked her to sign a contract to do the show for nine weeks.
Angel returned to Peepshow in 2012 temporarily after Holly left due to her pregnancy.
During that time, Angel also starred in Absinthe, a carnival burlesque theme show at Caesars Palace.
SUFFERING ABUSE
Angel had her first and only child, Roman, in 2009.
She and her then boyfriend are no longer together.
The 32-year-old opened up about why she and his father didn’t stay together.
“For those of you who don’t know my story… this is something I don’t take lightly. Roman’s father and I are not together because he beat me. Broke my ribs, knocked my teeth out, left scars that will be with me forever. Ones that not everyone can see,” she wrote on Instagram.
She went on to say that the first time he pushed her, she had Roman in her arms, who was only weeks old, so she got out.
Angel encouraged others who were in an abusive relationship to be strong and be in control of their life.
WHERE IS SHE NOW?
Angel is still living in Las Vegas with her son, fiance, and soon to be step-son, Gavin.
She is now an Instagram model and posts gorgeous photos of herself, sometimes shot by Holly.
Most of them are of her dressing up in costumes, like Harry Potter or Halloween make-up.
Other times Angel posts photos with her family about how proud she is of them or moments in their life.
Angel met her now fiance, Tony, over ten years ago when they performed in Absinthe together.
He is an actor, producer, and ‘retired circus freak,’ according to his Instagram bio.

Tony also loves spending time on social media and posting photography, whether it’s of Angel or anything he finds appealing.
