Wedding's Off for Hugh Hefner: 'Crystal Has Had a Change of Heart'

By PopEater Staff Posted Jun 14th 2011 02:45PM

The third time was anything but a charm for Hugh Hefner, whose wedding to Crystal Harris has been called off. "The wedding is off," Hefner glumly told his Twitter followers Tuesday. "Crystal has had a change of heart." According to TMZ, the 25-year-old model left the Playboy Mansion over the weekend after having a fight with the publishing mogul, 60 years her senior.

Multiple sources told the site that Harris moved her things out of the mansion and that the wedding, set for Saturday June 18, was canceled. It would have been Hefner's third marriage.

Harris, who earlier in the day promoted a comedic video that revolves around her relationship, released a statement on her website to explain her decision.

"After much deep reflection and thought I have decided to end my engagement with Hef," she wrote. "I have the utmost respect for Hef and wish him the best going forward. I hope the media will give each of us the privacy we deserve during this time."

Hefner didn't hint at any domestic disruptions on Saturday when he tweeted to a fan in England the details of the wedding. "The wedding is next Saturday (June 18)," he wrote. "And airs on Lifetime on July 13." He was also a major presence at the Playboy Jazz Festival, where he was spotted on Saturday with Harris on the festival grounds.

Harris has not been silent on Twitter either, but has focused her words on promoting a new single, 'Club Queen.' On Monday -- that's after she left him, according to TMZ -- Hefner helped his fiancee promote her music career with another tweet to his 638,000 followers.

Hefner, 85, and Harris, 25, began dating in January 2009 and became engaged around Christmas. The blond bombshell was slated to wear a pink wedding gown when she walked down the aisle in the backyard of the Playboy Mansion and, according to the couple, the nuptials were to be a colorful affair not unlike a "garden party." About 300 people were invited.

One of Hefner's former girlfriends, Holly Madison, expressed concern early on in the engagement that the couple was moving too fast and that Harris could potentially hurt her ex-beau.

"I think it's possible Crystal could break Hef's heart," Madison said. "They could end up divorcing, and she could take half his money."

Hef was previously married to Mildred Williams and Kimberly Conrad.

Harris lampooned the 60-year age gap with Hefner in a Funny or Die video released just today. In it, she promotes the 'The Playboy App' for smartphones that will make you "knowledgeable about things older people are interested in, which is helpful when you're dating Hugh Hefner." She sent a link to the video to her 175,000 Twitter followers, even though she had already left Hefner.

I was wondering why nothing has been in the news about it. Well, either it was a hoax from the beginning, or she realized how weird it is. 60 years her senior? I'm sorry, but I don't believe there is love there. I believe she took an opportunity, and then realized she was crazy afterward. Everyone loves Hef, but it's gross. I'm sorry. Why would a young, beautiful woman want to sleep with a man who can only shuffle around the house? And that house! Back in the day it was a big deal. Now? The whole Playboy thing is over.....well, it's not like it was. And Hugh is an old man. It's fair to say that. It's true. He has a few years at best left, and that's just life. This whole thing sounds very strangely set up.

This is a win-win situation for her. Surrounded by luxury, no need to work. And when he kicks the bucket, she'll still be young & beauitful. I only wish it were me!
P.S.: depsite a pre-nup, she HAS to be left SOMETHING.

By dickn2000c

You said, "Everybody loves Hef..." Really? Everybody? I don't love him. I met him once and I don't even like him. AND I'll bet I'm not alone!!

By cchucklest1

she slept with him because he has money and that is the reason lots of women sleep with men. ms barbi if a man has money he can get women of any age makes no difference how old he is. this is one of the reasons that men fight so hard to climb the ladder of succuss. if you have money you can always get women. i know this sounds terrible but its true. it doesn't take much money either.the women are not concerned how you look they need their bills paid. this is the real world, look around you.

She can just go out and buy all the wee wee she want with that kind of money.

Hum...I hear she got a better offer from a 96 year-old sheik in Qatar, and flew off in a Gulfstream jet after getting fitted for her burka.

By goatcars2

OMG ...Tell me it isn't so. And I've heard she was looking soooo forward to being a good wife to Heff. She even spent hours practicing her "technique" on soft pickles to get ready for Heff.

By GaPeech

Do you think she did it for the publicity and never planned to walk down the aisle with the old geezer?

By Julia

No, I think he went to the Doctor, and she found out he was healthy and will live a long time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
