Hank Baskett played wide receiver for parts of seven NFL seasons.

But he isn’t best known these days for having great hands.

He’s instead best known for having received a hand job from a transgender model back in 2014.

Yes, Baskett was also married to Kendra Wilkinson for nine years and helped create two small human beings with the former Playmate, a son named Hank IV and a daughter named Alijah.

But Hank’s celebrity gossip legacy will always revert to what he admits transpired in a hotel room over three years ago.

As Kendra on Top viewers are likely well aware of, Hank has confessed on camera to meeting someone named Ava London back in the day…

… and then unexpectedly having his penis massaged by her, all the way to orgasm

It’s true: Baskett has even talked about how he went to the aforementioned hotel room to purchase marijuana and then, somehow, ended up being fondled to completion by London instead.

It’s one of the most unusual stories of infidelity — and we bring it up now for a reason.

Earlier this month, Kendra filed for divorce from Baskett.

She made it clear in the days leading up to this announcement that trust had simply eroded between the stars and that the love between them was no longer enough.

However, Hank was asked on April 13 by TMZ whether the relationship was truly over and he responded as follows:

“You always leave the door open for that, always."

Would a reconciliation be under consideration due to the presence of the ex-couple’s two kids? Or because of the feelings that still exist between Baskett and Wilkinson?

"I would say both," Baskett replied.

But this is not what Twitter would say.

In a nutshell, Twitter would instead say: LOL!!!!!!

One Internet user scoffed at Baskett’s response, saying he would only return to Kendra as part of a new "reality TV" deal, saying the "plan all along" for the twosome was to create enough drama for a network to try and work with them.

Another user, meanwhile, simply relied on NeNe Leakes to sum up how she feels about this reunion possibility:

But one other user takes the reactionary cake.

"Classic love story," this person wrote in response to this report, adding:

"Boy meets girl. Boy married girl. Boy cheats on girl with granny. Girl takes boy back. Girl eventually files for divorce."

This individual may want to hire a lawyer pretty soon… because he or she just straight up murdered Hank Baskett!

The day she filed for divorce, meanwhile, Kendra shared a selfie with Hank on Instagram and wrote along with it a very moving caption.

It read:

I will forever love Hank and be open but for now we have chosen to go our own ways.

I’m beyond sad and heartbroken because i did believe in forever, that’s why i said yes but unfortunately too much fear has gotten in the way.

We are both amazing parents and our kids will be happy n never know the difference other than seeing mama smile. Sometimes love looks funny.

We certainly do with Hank and Kendra the very best.
