In 2017, Hugh Hefner, the highly controversial creator of Playboy magazine, passed away at 91, leaving behind a legacy marred by allegations of sexual abuse and exploitation. Recently, a former Playboy bunny, Crystal Hefner, who now resides in Hawaii, has offered insights into life within the notorious Playboy mansion and her eventual marriage to Hefner as his third wife.
She revealed that Hefner consumed a substantial amount of viagra to sustain his sexual appetite. However, this ultimately resulted in him experiencing hearing loss, a consequence he didn’t express regret over. “Hef always said he’d rather be deaf and still able to have sex,” Crystal shared.

Crystal’s upcoming memoir, Only Say Good Things, scheduled for release in January 2024 and titled after Hefner’s posthumous instructions, delves into her intimate moments with the late publisher and the regimented life she was subjected to.

She stated that in addition to sticking to a prescribed appearance, she adhered to a strict 6 p.m. curfew every evening and was obligated to partake in a dinner consisting of chicken soup with cream cheese and crackers, after which she would engage in sexual group activities alongside Hefner and fellow Playboy bunnies.
Crystal said Hefner’s death was timely
The 37-year-old mentioned that Hefner was lucky to have died in 2017, or else he would have been scrutinized for his controversial lifestyle. “You can’t fault his timing,” Crystal confessed. “He dipped out right on time. Hef’s lifespan of 91 years, it ended on the cusp of #MeToo. Coincidence? I think not.”
Crystal concluded that despite old age, Hefner still consumed a lot of viagra so he could indulge in orgies. “It was embarrassing. I don’t know the most people there’d been in our bedroom at one time, but – a lot. Pretty bad,” she explained. “We were like, ‘Oh, now it’s your turn.’ Nobody really wanted to be there but I think in Hef’s mind, he still thought he was in his 40s, and those nights, the people, the mansion, solidified that idea. He felt, ‘I’ve still got it.'”
