WASHINGTON — Hugh Hefner, the twice-married founder of Playboy, is taking the plunge again.
Hefner, 84, said on Saturday in a posting on Twitter that he and his girlfriend Crystal Harris, 24, got engaged on Friday.
"When I gave Crystal the ring, she burst into tears. This is the happiest Christmas weekend in memory," Hefner tweeted.
Hefner, whose magazine was founded in 1953, was divorced from his second wife, Kimberley Conrad, earlier this year. His first marriage to Mildred Williams ended in divorce in 1959.




Ms Harris forgot to do her research; Hefner is probably broke.........

I doubt it. http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/pla/execpay says his "compensation" was $1.5M. Plus http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/pla/insiders says he has nearly 8 MILLION shares of stock, which even at today's depressed prices is still worth over $40M. And he probably has plenty of other assets. I suspect Ms. Harris is hoping for a share of that goldmine when Hef inevitably croaks...

she bust into tears when she realized that she had finally escaped her trailer park childhood, Alchoholic father, and was finally filthy stinking rich. Didn't even need to go whoring or nothing, well except for one old geezer taking boner pills.

If I was Hef, and spent my life hanging/banging around 20 something year olds for all of my life, I'd be happy to die penniless. Smile

Ever see him on that 'Girls Next Door' show? He literally is a figurehead at this point, he came across as a mindless fool that had nothing to say. His daughter has been running his empire for years.

Wanna bet that his kids have protected his empire years ago? She might get a ring, but I'll bet that's all she gets.
