Biography

Born in Orange, New Jersey, Stephanie Adams would later become Playboy's Miss November in 1992, and she later married an Italian investment banker; a marriage that ended in divorce. She later came out as a lesbian in 2003, the first Playmate to do so, but in 2009, Stephanie was engaged to a chiropractor named Charles Nicolai, who she later married. The marriage resulted in a son named Vincent, born between late 2010 and early 2011. Just like her first marriage, Stephanie's second marriage also ended in a divorce, and in the time entering her passing, she was engaged in a bitter custody battle over her son Vincent.

On May 17, 2018, Stephanie checked herself and Vincent into a 25th floor penthouse at New York City's Gotham Hotel, while claiming that her husband was preventing her from taking Vincent on a vacation to Spain with her boyfriend. In the early hours of the following morning (May 18), Stephanie threw Vincent out of the penthouse window to his death, which was followed by Stephanie jumping to her own demise. Despite the bitter custody battle, it was not certified as a motive for Stephanie's villainous murder-suicide.
