New Year?s Eve will be Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris?s one year wedding anniversary. Are you surprised by how quiet their first year of marriage has been? I?ll admit that I?m surprised. Crystal is, after all, the runaway bride who ditched Hef just days before they were supposed to get married the first time. At that point, she was banging Dr. Phil?s son and I think when that relationship petered out, she went crawling back to Hef, who took her in and married her. Because maybe she was the only person in the world who knew the perfect temperature for his SOUP. Anyway, surprise, surprise, Star Mag claims that a 27-year-old and an 87-year-old don?t have much in common and their marriage is plagued with problems:
The third time is not the charm for Hugh Hefner ? his marriage to Crystal Harris is in trouble! Hef, 87, is boring his 27-year-old wife with his hermitlike behavior.
?Hef is in his PJs all day and never wants to go out,? a source tells Star, adding that the couple?s nightly routine consists of dinner at 6 pm, followed by watching TV in bed.
?For special treats, Hef will play Dominos or put on Crystal?s favorite movie, The Little Mermaid, but he?s usually asleep before it?s over.?

My favorite detail? Crystal?s favorite movie is The Little Mermaid. I mean? I think a lot about the casual ways in which society infantilizes grown women, but we also need to talk about how some women infantilize themselves. ?Here, baby, I?ll put on your favorite movie, The Little Mermaid, and that will be our quiet night in the Playboy Mansion.? EW.
Surprisingly, a spokesperson for Playboy actually bothered to deny this to Gossip Cop, saying: ?There is no divorce looming, and they are both enjoying married life at the Mansion.? Here?s what I wonder: I know Hef always made his ?girlfriends? abide by a curfew, but does his wife have a curfew too?

Well, they said they would do it and now they did it. Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris got married last night at the Playboy Mansion in LA. Crystal came back to Hef a few months after she dumped him and broke off their engagement just a few days before they were supposed to be married the first time, in 2011. She came back and they got re-engaged and now, I suppose, everybody is happy. Sure. Okay.
Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris are on their way to happily ever after! The Playboy founder, 86, and his model girlfriend, 26, tied the knot in an intimate ceremony on New Year’s Eve at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles, a mansion source tells Us Weekly.
Originally announcing her engagement to Hefner in December 2010, Harris called off her first wedding in June 2011 just days before the ceremony.
One year later, Harris confirmed via Twitter that she had reconciled with her ex. The couple cemented their plans to walk down the aisle once more in early December when they obtained a marriage license in Beverly Hills and Harris proudly debuted her new engagement ring. (She auctioned off her first ring — worth an estimated $90,000! — at NYC auction house Christie’s in October 2011.)
Taking special care to keep her second ceremony private, Harris — who recently opened her own lingerie store, Femme Fatale, in Studio City, Calif. — says her renewed bond with Hefner is solid.
“When the wedding didn’t work out the first time, it was because of me. I needed to explore out there and take the time away [from Hef and the Mansion]. The time away really helped make me realize that where I’m meant to be is here with Hef,” Harris tells Us Weekly. “Our relationship is better than it ever has been before. I’m very happy and Hef’s very happy and we’re excited.”
Former Girls Next Door star Harris is the Playboy mogul’s third wife. He married Mildred Williams in 1949 and the couple had two children together — Christie and David — before calling it quits in 1959. Hefner married Kimberley Conrad, the mother of his sons Marston and Cooper, in 1989 and filed for divorce in 2009 after an 11 year separation. Previous girlfriends of Hefner’s include Holly Madison, Kendra Wilkinson, Bridget Marquardt and Brande Roderick.

My sources ? Crystal?s Twitter and Hef?s Twitter feeds ? say that they definitely went through with it. Both Crystal and Hef tweeted photos after the wedding, and Crystal already changed her Twitter name to ?Crystal Hefner?. Do you think she?ll start tweeting sh-t about #getthatmoney or #honeymoonbaby or #golddigger4eva? Anyway, congrats to the happy couple. I hope they served soup at the wedding reception!! GET HEF SOME SOUP.

Besides using Hugh Hefner for publicity, breaking up with him the same day her single dropped and banging Dr. Phil’s son behind Hef’s back, Crystal Harris had an alternate plan to ditch Hugh at the alter in front of 300 guests for a tv special and shop around an exclusive interview for $500,000.
“Crystal wanted to ditch Hef at the altar. Her plan was to walk up the aisle and say she couldn’t go through with it. The wedding was to be filmed for a reality special, and her refusal to marry him would be a sensation. She was looking for a tie-in deal of around $500,000 for the exclusive ‘I ditched Hef at the altar’ interview. While there was interest, Crystal didn’t get an offer anywhere near half a million.” [Page Six]
I don’t know why Hugh wouldn’t want to marry Crystal Harris. She would have been a great wife. I bet if Hugh ever had to breathe with an oxygen tank, Crystal would crimp the tube because his wheezing was drowning out her program.

Break out your smelling salts and your hankies, because the wedding of Hugh Hefner and his Playmate girlfriend Crystal Harris is OFF — she’s even gone so far as to move out of the mansion. I didn’t want to be the one to say it, but it almost makes you think that the 25-year old stripper and the octogenarian’s relationship wasn’t really based on mutual respect and love after all. TMZ says:
Hugh Hefner’s fiancee Crystal Harris is a real-life runaway bride — 5 days before walking down the aisle, she bailed out of the Playboy Mansion and multiple sources say the wedding is off!
Our sources — who are all at the mansion — say Crystal and Hef had a nasty argument this weekend on the phone. When the dust settled Crystal decided to 86 the nuptials and quickly moved her stuff out.
The wedding was supposed to go down Saturday.
Something doesn’t add up here. It doesn’t make any sense that she would be the one to bail. He didn’t even make her sign a prenup. It’s everything a sexually-abused-runaway-turned-stripper could want out of life. I bet what actually happened is that her dowry wasn’t in the form of Confederate bills and heads of oxen and Hugh was rightfully incensed.

Crystal Harris has called off the wedding with Hugh Hefner 5 days before the nuptials and has already left the Playboy Mansion.
Sources inside the mansion say the two had a nasty argument over the weekend on the phone. When all was said and done, Crystal nixed the wedding and moved out. She probably found out there was no prenup because Hugh’s fortune consisted of a stack of old Playboys under his bed.
Somewhere out there Holly Madison is smiling and doing cartwheels through a field of daisies and telling Hugh to “suck it.”

The Daily Beast has a new interview with Hugh Hefner, in which they ask him about the details about life at the mansion in that Bunny Tales book that was written by his former girlfriend Izabella St. James and came out a few years ago. Hef tries to discredit St. James by questioning her motives and saying she was kicked out the house for not getting along with the other girls. He pretty much confirms everything she said about him though: that he pays the girls $1,000 a week, makes them come home at 9pm, and doesn’t bother to wear a condom while having sex with them all. He defends himself by saying that they do STD testing and that most of the other women he paid for their company speak highly of him. That’s probably because they still earn good money to show up at his parties. Here’s part of the Daily Beast’s interview, with more at the source.
Hef?s responses to St. James/Kasprzyk?s claims are variously dismissive and indifferent:
* On the charge that he paid each his girlfriends, out of safe in his bedroom, $1,000 a week in cash: ?That part is true. If you write it and make it sound sleazy, that?s easy to do. But the girls got a clothing allowance.?
*On the claim that he imposed a strict 9 p.m. curfew, by which time all his girlfriends had to be at home or else: ?That was also true?and widely publicized. It wasn?t a big secret.? Why the curfew? Hef laughs: ?So they wouldn?t be running around on me!?
*On St. James/Kasprzyk?s allegation that he handed out Quaaludes as aphrodisiacs: ?If she was taking Quaaludes, she was taking them on her own. I wasn?t supplying drugs to the girls.?
*On her account of Hef?s downing Viagra at a nightclub and then consulting his watch so he?d be ready with the girls when it finally kicked in: ?The description of the Viagra thing is a fantasy that reflects an ignorance in terms of the use of Viagra. Once you take Viagra, you don?t have to be looking at a watch. Viagra takes about an hour to kick in, but lasts for about half a day? It simply permits normal sexual activity.?
*On the charge that nobody was medically tested for safe sex: ?Nobody in the group had sexually transmitted diseases. I was very careful and very concerned about taking care of everybody in terms of sexually transmitted disease. Absolutely there was testing. One of the things that can be pointed out is that over all the years of extensive sexual activity, nobody ever got pregnant, and nobody was having any serious problems with diseases. The only time anybody ever got pregnant in a relationship with me was the two times I was married.?
*On the claim that he refused to wear a condom: ?I think one of the ways that you resolve that problem is to have sex with people who don?t have sexually transmitted diseases.? That claim, in other words, appears to be true.
According to Hef, ?her self-serving, clearly fabricated stories in the book give the impression that they are somehow reflective of former girlfriends. The reality is the opposite of that. My former girlfriends, as I?m sure you know, speak highly about the relationship with me, they speak with great love. One of the things that sets my relationships apart from many others is the fact that I have managed to remain close to many of my former girlfriends, including my former wives, because I?m a decent human being. And I treat women very well. I take pride in that.?
Hef argues that the book?s description of life at the mansion is wildly at odds with generally accepted reality. ?The point is we?re not talking about some place in Transylvania?some place that nobody has visited,? Hef says.
As for being a jealous lover, ?Kendra?s wedding was held here,? Hef says. ?She and Hank, her husband, are very close friends. As a matter of, I got a very sweet Twitter, or tweet, from Kendra a week ago congratulating me on the marriage.?
[From The Daily Beast via Gawker, Fark]
Hef has a point. He’s not a nasty pimp, and his requirements of his paid companions are rather tame compared to life on the streets, or even in some sultan’s harem. (Although there’s probably more jewelry and cash involved when you’re screwing an oil heir and his buddies.) He’s just a very old dude in a mansion with 70s decor who surrounds himself with beautiful surgically enhanced women and pays them with the cash he makes from featuring them in his magazine. It’s technically legal probably, but that doesn’t make it much different from prostitution, whether he’s a nice guy about it or not.

I feel kind of guilty putting all of these engagement announcements all together, but in my defense, two of the couples that got engaged are kind of boring. First up: Hugh Hefner got engaged. He?s 84 YEARS OLD. He proposed to one of his many girlfriends, Crystal Harris, who is 24 years old. OH GOD.
Hugh Hefner rang in the holidays with an engagement ring.
The Playboy founder is engaged to girlfriend Crystal Harris, 24, he announced on Twitter.
“After the movie tonight, Crystal & I exchanged gifts. I gave Crystal a ring. A truly memorable Christmas Eve,” Hefner, 84, wrote. “When I gave Crystal the ring, she burst into tears. This is the happiest Christmas weekend in memory.”
Later, he clarified, “Yes, the ring I gave Crystal is an engagement ring. I didn’t mean to make a mystery out of it. A very merry Christmas to all.”
This will be the third marriage for Hefner. In 2009 he filed for divorce from his second wife, former Playmate Kimberly Conrad, after the two separated in 1998. He was previously married to Mildred Williams; their marriage ended in divorced in 1959.
Harris was December 2009’s Playboy Playmate.

There are sketchy age differences, and then there?s this. I mean? no fool like an old fool, right? I?m always reminded of something my father said about an older man marrying some young girl - ?At his age, he?s just paying to look at her.? As in, all of Viagra in the world isn?t raising that sail, so Hef is just buying himself a young, pretty blonde to look at and be his companion. More power to him?? Ugh.
In other engagement news, Ginnifer Goodwin (32) just got engaged to her boyfriend of two years, Joey Kern (34). Apparently, Kern proposed earlier this month? and they just decided to announce it now. Their wedding date is tentatively announced for next fall. Also: Jason Mraz (33) proposed to his girlfriend, singer-songwriter Tristan Prettyman (28). Let?s give a round of applause for age-appropriate unions!

Hugh Hefner may have had his fair share of girlfriends, but that didn’t stop him from getting divorced - until now.
After more than a decade of separation, Hugh Hefner is now filing for divorce from wife and former Playmate, Kimberly.
Hefner is asking for the judge to order him to pay Kimberly Conrad Hefner $20,000 a month in spousal support, which is half of the $40,000 a month he has been paying her since the separation of 1998. The payment plan would end in two years or after a trial on the divorce.
Hefner and Kimberly married back in 1989, which was the same year she was announced Playmate of the Year. They then had two songs together, Marston and Cooper Hefner, who are now both in college.
Hef and his ex then separated in 1998 – with Hugh going on to live at the Playboy mansion, while Kimberly moved into a home next door with the couple’s sons. Documents show that she filed for divorce at that time, but it was eventually withdrawn.
Kimberly sued Hefner last month after reporting that he owes her $4 million due to their prenuptial agreement and from the sale of the home she was living in. Also mentioned in her lawsuit is that Hefner agreed to pay $250,000 per yet for every year they were married after their fourth anniversary.
Hefner claims he paid $750,000 after they separated that he assumed met the prenuptial agreement.
Kimberly’s attorney in the civil lawsuit refused to comment on the situation and Hefner says he has paid almost $12 million to his wife sine the separation.
Hefner, 83, states that he has paid his son’s school expenses and will continue to do so.
The Playboy founder is living with his current girlfriends at the mansion currently and has also starred in “The Girls Next Door,” since 2005 with his previous three girlfriends.
