If there's one person out there who has never made a secret about how much she loved having sex with her husband, it's Kendra Wilkinson-Baskett.

But that was then. Sadly, Kendra tells me she and Hank are not as, well, active as they used to be.

Even sadder, she reveals that the two talked about splitting up...

"He deserves a lot more sex, he definitely does," Kendra told me yesterday when we caught up at E! to talk about the new season of her reality show (premiering Sunday) and her just released book, Being Kendra: Cribs, Cocktails & Getting My Sexy Back. "Women can be so crazy at times and forget about our men. You know, they need some love. They need some loving, too."

Even so, the couple is doing just fine. In fact, they're stronger than ever. However, the relationship wasn't as steady following the birth of baby Hank Jr. when Kedra was struggling with severe depression. It certainly didn't help things when they seemed to be moving to a different city every day as Hank was being bounced between football teams.

"I gave him an expiration date," Kendra admits. "We didn't have a home. Our stuff was scattered all over the United States. We had tax bills sent to three cities. I went crazy. I had a meltdown."

She finally put her foot down. "I was like, 'If we don't find a home in such and such a time, I'm going to have to leave you for awhile so I can find a home. I have to do this for our baby,' " Kendra remembers. "We set the expiration date—not to divorce, but to separate."

Fortunately that day never came. Season four of Kendra shows them buying and moving into their new L.A. area home.

We'll also see Kendra competing on Dancing With the Stars. She reveals in the new book that she and her partner Louis Van Amstel didn't get along too well. "I didn't have as much fun as I thought I would have," she says. "But when I look at the big picture, it got me back on my feet. I give credit to Dancing With the Stars and Louis for getting me back on my feet."
