Hmm... Not a surprise really!!! I wonder what she does get though? She must get something otherwise surely she wouldn't have married him, but then again maybe she wants to go down in history as Hefs 3rd & final bride?!? |

I think that's more it...she couldn't make it on her own. I bet the ring is about it, although she might have gotten what it was the last time...probably why she's trying to get things like the store going. Guess she figured out that her singing career isn't going to get her far. |

But he could also be funding her store. If and when he passes or they divorce, she can claim the assets from the store. It may not be much because she would have to split it with Ashley, but it is something. She would probably get to keep her car and I am sure he threw in a few million to her. |

fucking hell is that crusty top middle? I recognise the other 3 so I presume from context it is - that's the only clue . . . a fun pic taken with real pals having real fun with the freedom to speak to whooever she wants and come and go at will re the skiing trip she made (and the one she didn't go on) - what's the betting she thought she was gonna get a personalised board and champion instructors and in room massages like the actual GND's did on the show? I think the whole mansion life has been such a let down for her - hasn't lived up to the glamorous exciting image of the show AT ALL (even tho the clues are there in the show that these were exceptional treats laid on JUST for the show and that a gilded cage is still a cage and very tarnished and not so sparkly on closer inspection - same with the real housewives shows) but still the bits that have (butlers etc) are still way more than she would ever have experienced on her own. Hope she thinks it worth it me? I wouldn't trade at all |

Minxy, well said! I agree the mansion is a sort of gilded cage. Words from the song "A Bird in a Gilded Cage": She's only a bird in a gilded cage, A beautiful sight to see, You may think she's happy and free from care, She's not, though she seems to be, 'Tis sad when you think of her wasted life, For youth cannot mate with age, And her beauty was sold, For an old man's gold, She's a bird in a gilded cage. Don't get me wrong. I don't feel one bit sorry for her, but I do think the mansion life sucks the life out of you. And I know many of you feel the same way. Just look at how healthy and happy Bridget, Holly, and Anna seem to be now as compared to when they lived there. |

Holy H@ll!! Are you kidding me?? http://www.aol.com/video/crystal-harris-is-desperate-for-babies-with-hugh-hefner/517630387/?icid=maing-grid7%7Cmaing5%7Cdl4%7Csec3_lnk2%26pLid%3D252550 There's the catch! The pre nup wasn't too great but have a kid with him and you can get loads more from him for life. Ugh Edited by Malindak, Jan 4 2013, 11:29 AM.

or any of her other skills not just the singing She wasn't even very successful at "escorting" according to the tales on the Dirty waay back when and often got stiffed out of the money by the "rich" old guys she met - yeah I know the Dirty is what it is but some stuff rings true. Hef will have settled some money on her for sure. He is generous - and has an image to keep up! I sure would be interested to know if it is as generous this time around, what with the recession and all <sarcasm lol> plus she is a lot more desperate this time around - now she has had a taste of independence and providing for herself <pml> and Hef still has a score to settle despite taking her back for his own reasons and amusement. Hef is still a business man at heart, learned a lot from Kim's pre nup and settlement - and has always expected and still expects value for money - I lolled at Kendra complaining about having to go collect her wages in cash and listen to reviews of her performance on sex nights if she hadn't been enthusiastic enough - yeah those same ones she was denying happened. If they didn't go collect, and at the right exact time slot, they didn't get the $$ - same if they went to spend time at their families - no holiday pay for them (even temps get paid holidays over here). She will be happy with her wedding gift from him - her very own Club 33 membership at last (no idea how he got round the waiting list, is it still closed? Maybe he transferred the PB one). Was that as well as or instead of the almost million she would have got last time? I tend towards instead of. Still very generous tho and boy pimp family will be loving it. Gotta admit I would too! These "news sources" annoy me tho, and huff po is a lazy site that basically just reposts any source, - she never ever would have any claims on the mansion - that belongs to the company! Nor would Hef EVER go to his lawyers office - not since he has been rich enough to expect them to come to him. Even when he was young and fit he wouldn't have gone there and certainly not in his current physical frailty - nothing to do with not wanting to be seen signing a prenup as Radar claims. Everything and everyone is expected to come to him - and he doesn't mind paying and has the clout to do so. That's why the mansion is so run down - major maintenance is only done when he is off the property and he rarely leaves for even a couple of hours these days - let alone a couple of days. His will (and pre nup) may settle a few shares on her (and a few of his pals and employees) if she fulfils her duties but that company for sure is locked down tight for his kids!! They and his legacy museum will get everything and no one will come between that- No one! Shame no one is going to spill the details of the prenup - last one and this one. I do hope Hef lives to be a 100 and keeps his active mind as well ;) |

exactly and Thanks for the lyrics I have never read them before x The mansion is Hef's playground set up to service and delight him - and good for him. He had a vision, worked hard, made it come true and made it fit him. He IS generous with it, very generous - to the staff, who do seem to genuinely adore him and working there, to the inhabitants and to the visitors. But make no mistake it all is geared to and revolves around him and what he likes and wants. Fit in with that then fine - enjoy. Don't fit in - bye bye and no hard feelings (on the whole). And it is Hef's tarnished gilded cage for himself too! I wrote in another post about mansion maintenance. He doesn't want the hassle and noise of cleaning, repair and refurbishment disturbing his daily life so lives with it mouldering around him instead. And now misses out on the joys of renewal of his physical surroundings. And he does miss that - remember when they redid the stairs and landings with wooden floors while he was away? Same with new girls etc- he gets the novelty of the new but loses the joy and delights of long term and voluntary relationship/companionship. Nearest he gets is Mary. I don't feel sorry for Crystal or any of the girls/people there- they choose it and all our choices have rough and smooth aspects. The price they pay is too high for me - but seeing all sides of it makes me appreciate being a free pigeon (nothing spectacular and fancy and having my own beauty for those who see past the vermin/flying rat labellol) even more My dislike of her comes from her personality and actions - jeez I would like and respect her more if she said Yeah I am a gold digger so fucking what! I give value for money! rather than the whiney fake show she puts on. And if she treat and valued people better. Or just carried on as she is but didn't expect us to be nicer and adore her without giving us our value for it. I do like her for giving me an outlet for my bitchy side tho :D - she gives us value there and gets her just rewards in return lmfao Hef obviously thinks she does give value for money or she would be out the door He has no problem unloading anyone or even bridgetting those who don't provide to his expectations and standards. |

I think they are both getting what they want and I guess that is ok. He wants someone who will stay with him until he passes and she wants to be the last girlfriend and wife of the great legend. She will always be Mrs. Hefner or at least Crystal Hefner - even if she goes on someday to marry someone else. In that way she is a bit like Pricilla Presley except Priscilla can actually act and made huge amounts of money off Graceland. Sounds like Crystal won't get a cent from the mansion especially if Cooper moves in and takes it over. So if I think of it that way then I guess c'est la vie. They both seem happy - even if it isn't true love or a traditional loving marriage that we normally think of. OFF TOPIC...There are more lyrics to the gilded cage song. I just posted the part that seemed to fit most. |

damn I can't get vid to work - only want to laugh at it and her B-) won't stop me giving my tuppence worth tho!! As if!! Fucking hell how dumb do they think we are? same old same old pr bullshit!! Trying to deflect all the gold digger/sad needy desperate foolish man talk flying around. Not one news outlet has even pretended it is a love match this time around (thank fuck). It's easy to say "I want his babies! see I do love him really, forget all that stuff i said before. Especially the few bits of truth that were mixed in all my other lies! This time it really is love". Would have had slightly - as in 0.0000001%- more believability if she had said " it makes me sad that I can't have his kids as I want to be a mother so much, but I love him so much I will pay that price to be with him" Some of us also remember that one of her attractions for Hef is that she doesn't want kids!! Even IF Hef could father kids still it wouldn't get her everything (Which we KNOW he can't The whole fucking world knows he can't and she (and Hef and the pr dept) certainly knows it - and always knew it.) Even IF Hef could father kids still it wouldn't get her everything. The prenup would still get her. Yeah she would get her a continued better standard of living TILL the kid/s turned 18 then whammo. Just like with Kim. Only this time a) he doesn't love her like he did Kim b) he learnt a lot from Kim's pre nup. About how his $ can go down as well as up! c) Once the kids were of age he really begrudged Kim and her $. Remember how he tried to backtrack on what he had provided for her and tried to screw her out of her legal share of the house? Holly's bitchy comments at the time about Kim and money were mostly caused by listening to Hef's bitching - he just had the savvy to do it privately and she didn't. d) Hef doesn't want his empire and legacy diluted between any more kids So even if she got his kid (which she won't) she would be taken care of as in a nice house and vacations she shares with the kids till they were of age. The kids expenses would betaken care of no question - but she wouldn't get free reign and would need to ask some one for and justify the expenses. And then their money would be locked down tight away from her. Lawyers and Christie/Marsden/Cooper/Someone else would be the executors/ trustees controlling it and still keeping it away from her for life. She would get exactly what she has now. Hef really aint a fool. Sucker for tears when it suits him, cold as ice when it doesn't. All those women and his only kids have all been in wedlock? yeah no doubt a good few abortions not only paid for but the women compensated too - and more generously than if they tried to use them as leverage. If she could miraculously manage to have a kid she would be Bridgetted to the umpteenth level then for sure. Married or not. the kid would be sitting pretty and she would be locked out |

Damn girls! Ya'll are on a flipping roll today! All of it so true... There is no way he could knock her if even if he wanted to. If that could've happened, it would have with Holly. She just needs to "ride the ride" and be wise about saving and properly investing her money. The only thing about that store is that small business aren't fairing that well these days. So, if they need to sell, or close, it's kind of like my Henry Pa used to say..."you can't get blood out of a turnip" ...and being a boring accountant, I can tell you, the tax breaks aren't THAT great |

Now that they are married I thought, 'Oh well. It's done now. Time to stop watching the mansion antics' but I still want to see if the lingerie store lasts so I guess hubby will have to put up with this "hobby" of mine a bit longer. :) I don't give the store much hope but they may do ok with internet sales. I am very interested to see the prices to see if they are comparable to Trashy or Victoria's Secret. As some of you have pointed out it seems that Trashy has much more interesting items. They have also been in business a lot longer and are more well known. Outside of Playboy/Crystal fans who else even knows the store exists?? |

Also for the discussion about Club 33... It looks like they opened up some memberships again this year. I wonder if preggo Holly will run into newlywed Crystal there? http://www.disneylandclub33.com/How-Do_I-Join.htm |

Honestly, no. People walking around shopping may step in and look around. I just wasn't that impressed with the inventory. It's kind of all over the place... |
