Feb. 22 (UPI) -- Kendra Wilkinson is having new "marital problems" with husband Hank Baskett.

The 32-year-old television personality said in an Instagram post Wednesday that she's working to overcome "issues" in her marriage to the 35-year-old former NFL player.

Wilkinson spoke out after a tabloid ran a story speculating she was "faking" her "marriage problems" to secure a seventh season renewal for her WE tv series, Kendra on Top.

"1. how do u fake marital problems? makes absolutely no sense. 2. Yes we are having issues," the star wrote in response.

"These issues Hank n I are having in our home which we are tryin to hard to over come, everyone knows about, including producers and network, friends and family," she said.

Wilkinson said Kendra on Top went from a "light hearted" comedy to "drama" because of "sad times" in her relationship. She denied she engineered the change for ratings, saying she "hate[s] drama."

"I hope to get back to the fun Kendra you all know," the star said. "Thank you all for your support and understanding me at this time. I've been in a lot of therapy lately n hope all gets resolved for me, Hank, kids and even for TV. Lol."
