Crystal Harris

Crystal Harris' wedding dress, worn during her New Year's Eve nuptials with Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, is ready to hit the auction block for charity.

"I am auctioning my wedding dress with @charitybuzz to help raise money for lymphoma in memory of Mary," the Playmate tweeted Thursday.

Mary is, of course, Hef's secretary Mary O'Connor, who passed away in January. She was a great friend (and "Mansion Mom") to the girls for 40 years.

According to Crystal Harris, Mary even played a key role in their reconciliation after she went all Runaway Bride on him during their first wedding attempt.

It's official and officially baffling: Crystal Harris married Hugh Hefner for his looks.

Or at least not for his money.

An insider confirms to Us Weekly that Harris signed an "ironclad" prenuptial agreement prior to marrying Hefner last month, a wedding, of course, which took place a year-and-a-half after Harris ended the couple's first engagement.

But while Harris will undoubtedly increase her exposure and land more marking deals as a result of marrying the Playboy founder, this tabloid source says Hefner did NOT amend his will to include her.

The senior citizen's fortune is still bound to "his children, the University of Southern California film school and a variety of charities," according to the mole.

The runaway bride is now the beaming bride.

After walking out on her wedding and her groom in June 2011, Crystal Harris and Hugh Hefner exchanged vows Sunday, saying "I Do" inside the 86-year old Playboy founder's iconic mansion.

So, what was different for the centerfold this time around?

"When the wedding didn't work out the first time, it was because of me," Harris told Us Weekly. "I needed to explore out there and take the time away [from Hef and the Mansion].

"The time away really helped make me realize that where I'm meant to be is here with Hef. Our relationship is better than it ever has been before. I'm very happy and Hef's very happy and we're excited."

Congratulations to the totally normal couple!

As the nation narrowly avoided plunging over the fiscal cliff, Crystal Harris and Hugh Hefner took a plunge of their own, getting married on New Year's Eve!

The couple tied the knot in a small ceremony at the Playboy Mansion.

Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris were originally supposed to walk down the aisle in June 2011, but she called off the wedding days before it was scheduled.

They reconciled earlier this year and got engaged just a few months ago.

Updating a previous report in which Crystal Harris was rumored to have moved back into the Playboy Mansion, the model herself confirms it is in fact the case.

She's not just living there, either. She and Hugh Hefner are a couple again!

"Yes @hughhefner and I are back together. Yes I am his #1 girl again. Yes we are happy. Hope that clears up any confusion! xoxo," Harris tweeted on Friday.

Guess Hugh is as forgiving as he is affable, friendly and rich. What a guy!

"It's Mary O'Conner that brought Crystal Harris back," Hef Tweeted. "Crystal was miserable & said so. Mary told Crystal to write & tell me, which she did."

And though you might be stunned to see Hefner take back a woman who essentially left him standing at the altar last year, Harris was always "the one."

"He loved Crystal more than he had loved any woman in a very long time, that's why he was willing to marry her," said a close Hefner source.

"There were so many women he couldn't properly commit to ... she had a hold on him he has never been able to shake. So it's of no surprise to me that he would get close to her again. He can't help himself. He has a deep connection to her."

So does this mean there might be another attempted marriage? It's unclear ... as is how Shera Bechard will respond to her demotion to backup status.

Hugh Hefner has reportedly traded one young blonde for another, but there's a twist:

The Playboy founder's new roommate is also his old roommate... and former fiancee!

Sources tell Radar Online that Hef has kicked out Shera Bechard in order to make room for Crystal Harris, the large-breasted model who essentially left Hefner at the altar just a few days prior to their planned wedding last summer.

Crystal Harris has offered Hugh Hefner two sizeable reasons for reconciliation.

"Crystal begged Hef to let her come back," a Playboy Mansion source says. "He surprisingly doesn't have any hard feelings against her, so he let her move back into the Mansion."

Well, no. Hugh doesn't have hard anything against anyone at his age without medical assistance.

But just because Harris is once again residing at the famous home, that doesn't mean she and Hefner might actually get married now, does it?

"Never say never where Hugh Hefner is concerned," the insider concludes.

According to founder Gina Rodriguez, the celebrities are in charge of their rate and no one is doing better than Staub, who has reportedly raked in $1,000 in an hour.

"I think recording artists will do really well," Rodriguez tells The Huffington Post. "Imagine if Lady Gaga did it."

Which, of course, forces us to ask: which of these "stars" would you most want to chat with on the phone?

Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris are involved in a major doggy dilemma. A canine conundrum. A puppy problem for the ages... literally!

While this couple narrowly avoided a wedding in June - when the young blonde essentially stood her much elder fiance up at the altar - and while they have little contact with each other at this point, Hefner tells People Magazine there's still one very cute point of contention between him and his ex.

Their puppy, a Cavalier King Charles spaniel.

"We both love the puppy," Hefner said of the dog and the debate over who gets to keep him. "I told her if she wants to keep the ring and the Bentley, then maybe I can keep the puppy. I [hope] we will work it out."

Of course, even if it doesn't, we have a feeling the Playboy founder will be okay.

He's moved on from Harris with Anna Sophia Berglund and Shera Bechard, two busty women we're assuming he can put to good use in other, doggy-related ways.

Hugh Hefner may have given it to Crystal Harris on multiple occasions, but the Playboy founder's former fiancee is about to give it right back to her ex - but giving away his engagement ring!

TMZ has actually posted the listing for this 3.39 carat rock, which will go up for auction in October at Christie's, a famous auction house in New York City. It's expected to fetch between $20,000 to $30,000.

Why is Harris parting with the stone? Because, insiders say, the busty blonde "couldn't bear to look at the ring anymore because it brought back bad memories."

And if you truly believe that's the reason, you likely also believe the Boston Red Sox still have a shot to make the playoffs this season.
