Spencer Pratt of The Hills made a shocking admission while recently speaking with Page Six Radio’s Danny Murphy, Evan Real, and Ian Mohr. Pratt, who was promoting his upcoming book “The Guy You Loved to Hate: Confessions from a Reality TV Villain,” spilled a secret about some photos he once sold of actress Mary-Kate Olsen.

Pratt said the photos, which were taken in 2004, were of Olsen as a teenager and showed her partying in the bedroom of Max Winklery, the son of actor Henry Winkler.

Pratt admittedly made quite a profit from the photographs.

“I think it got up to like $90,000,” he said.

Pratt revealed that the very first photo he sold of Olsen was to InTouch for a whopping $50,000.

While this move may be controversial to some, Pratt claims that the images weren’t of anything that a celebrity would now post to their own social media profiles.

“These lovely individuals are already hundred-millionaires,” he said of Olsen. “Nothing I sold …. you wouldn’t post on your [Instagram account].”

Pratt revealed that there was one photo that he didn’t sell because Olsen appeared to be under the influence at the time. However, he claimed that the image still ended up landing him in some hot water.

“There’s a photo of me, like at a semi-formal, and there, Mary-Kate, she looks inebriated,” he said. “I didn’t sell that photo. “I’m in it. That’s somebody else, so that’s the one I get a little heat for. But my photos were clean.”

As for today, it doesn’t appear that Pratt is on regular speaking terms with the Olsen twins, though he did say that he still receives Christmas cards from them.
