Hugh Hefner Plots TV Special About Getting Dumped

It didn't take long for Hugh Hefner to move on after
getting dumped by Crystal Harris -- he now calls
Anna Sophia Berglund his "best girl" -- and the Playboy publisher has announced he's carrying on with a Lifetime special about the wedding, only now instead of witnessing "I Do's," viewers will watch an 85-year-old man get left by a woman 60 years his junior.
"The marriage special planned for Lifetime TV is now going to have a 'runaway bride' theme and will air in July," he wrote on
Twitter Wednesday night. "Holly and Kendra were here today lending their emotional support as we shot [the special]."
Lifetime confirmed the special to
PopEater but declined to offer additional details at this time. Hefner and Harris' wedding special was set to air July 13. The pair broke up about five days before their June 18 nuptials at -- where else -- the Playboy Mansion.

Since then, Hefner has surrounded himself with a bevy of beauties at his decadent estate, including last year's Miss November, Shera Bechard, who lives at the mansion, and Berglund. Both are reportedly "dating" the octogenarian.
On Twitter, Hefner invites followers to come along with him on his daily routines, which in the past week has included movie nights ('Runaway Bride') and lots and lots of dominoes. He sent his girls on a field trip to Disneyland on Wednesday and he hung out with his son, Cooper.
Proving to be the most polite man on Twitter, Hefner answers several questions daily from followers and makes a point to use their actual names.
"Crystal is gone, Brittany. Did you miss the last week?" he said after someone asked what happened to his ex-fiancee.
Last Tuesday, Hefner announced that "Crystal has had a change of heart" and since then he's had a sense of humor about being dumped. Coincidentally Harris was being featured as the cover girl in the July issue of Playboy and being referred to as Mrs. Crystal Hefner. It was too late to pull the magazine, so Hef simply slapped "Runaway Bride" stickers on the issue.

Doesn't it seem strange that Hef is already with a "new girl" and yet wants us to pull this run-a-way bride charade off?

You younger guys might want to pay attention to Hef. Don't marry. It is a financial trap. You get nothing out of it. Live with them, get a dog, travel, enjoy life, and play with your sister's kids then go home. There is a reason for that big smile on brides' faces when they walk down the isle. They are thinking no more b*** J***. Don't buy the BS that you will be old and lonely. If you live that long, you will have all the widows around trying to court you.

I am sorry you are lonely.
What a waste of time and energy. Hugh Hefner is a man afraid of being old and the women he deals with are looking for and have a dirty old sugar daddy who like Peter Pan does not want to grow up. Brainless waste of tv time.

Are you serious? Kind of a waste of money and time, not to be mean or anything.

Mr. Hefner changed the world, he is an icon. I am beleive this show on being "dumped" will make him look foolish, when he is not. Maybe this whole thing is a set up for a show, I hope not.

you are old hef and wrinkle so what if you have money get over it

He's 85 and acts like a 150 year old.
What immaturity.
See how smart the 25 year old bimbo was for calling off the wedding?

I'm really not sure what's tackier - an 84 year old guy marrying a 24 year old girl or a show about being dumped by said girl after she very wisely came to her senses.

This was one big publicity stunt. Hef never had intentions of letting this young blonde get HIS money. Hef is just trying to look like a victim and drum up sales for Playboy. How much T & A do you need to see in your lifetime? It gets boring!

Why won't this man just die already? He's the most disgusting piece of slob on the map and no one seems to have a problem with him... But let someone talk about good moral values, and the ACLU lawyers are all over it like flies on manure.
