14 DAY TRIAL // Reports claim that Hugh Hefner made Crystal Harris, his relatively new, 27-year-old wife, sign an “ironclad” prenup before they tied the knot on New Year’s Eve, but that’s not to say he’s going to leave her penniless when he’s gone.
The 87-year-old media mogul may still be a player, but he too is aware that he’s not going to be around forever and that chances are he will not outlive Chrystal.
So, according to a new report, he’s making sure she’s well provided for when he’s gone – and that includes having a $5 million (€3.8 million) mansion to call home, TMZ reports.
“We're told he's created an intricate plan to set her up in a multi-million dollar estate, where no one in his world can displace her once he dies,” the celebrity e-zine writes.
The plan also includes buying a home that has both their names on the deed, which means that, if The Hef dies, the mansion goes to Crystal automatically.
“Hef plunked down $5 million [€3.8 million] last month for a 5,900-square-foot Hollywood Hills mansion, which is held in trust for the 2 of them. Short story – Crystal owns the house with him,” says the same media outlet.
For the time being, Hugh and Crystal are living at the famous Playboy Mansion, which he doesn’t own but rents from Playboy Enterprises.
This can only mean, TMZ assumes, that the new mansion The Hef bought is meant for Crystal when he’s gone.
“As for the one hitch – it's if they get unhitched. Then Hef will either give her the house, buy her out, or fight it out in court. BTW... the house has 4 bedrooms, 5 baths, an infinity pool and sick views,” the publication writes.
Hugh and Crystal almost got married once before, but she dumped him days before walking down the aisle, more or less running away from the home (i.e. the Playboy Mansion) they shared.
Many believed that to be a PR stunt, since all the drama was turned into a TV special and, right about that time, Crystal was trying to launch herself as a pop singer.
