Crystal Harris

Crystal Harris is a 25-year old blonde with an aspiring singing career who chose not to marry an 85-year old who spends all day in a bathrobe.

Tomorrow night at 10 p.m. EST, Lifetime will spend an hour exploring the reasons behind this shocking split.

On Hef's Runaway Bride, the network says it will give viewers an "intimate look at the events and conversations that led up to the breakup." It will feature "new and exclusive interviews with both Hefner and Harris about the end of their relationship."

Because we know readers can't wait another milisecond to watch the special, we present the following trailer to get you excited for it:

A week ago at this time, the world assumed Crystal Harris would officially be Mrs. Hugh Hefner.

Instead, the model dumped her fiancee on Tuesday and hung out in a VIP cabana at a pool party in Las Vegas.

"I'm doing okay," she told People. "I just had to get away. Today is the day and I just had to get away. I'm going back tonight so I just wanted to get away for the day."

Holly Madison, who always wanted to marry the Playboy mogul herself, is appalled at Crystal's behavior.

"That's a new low," Holly Tweeted of Harris' partying. "That's disgusting and whoever booked her is tacky."

But, hey, at least this ordeal has given Madison a reason to be in the news again. She ought to be thanking Crystal.

The rumors are true. Crystal Harris and Jordan McGraw have been banging ...

... out songs together in the studio.

Ever since she bailed on Hugh Hefner days before their wedding, Crystal has been hanging out with McGraw, the son of Dr. Phil and her long-rumored over.

The twosome insists that their relationship is indeed about beautiful music together, but only in the literal sense. Seriously, they are carrying guitars here.

Sources close to Crystal and Jordan say they've been friends for about a year now and he lent a shoulder to cry on when she fled the Playboy Mansion.

They've been holed up in a Hollywood recording studio working on Crystal's new album. Despite Crystal's newly-single status, she insists it's platonic.

Maybe to her. As Chris Rock said, men do not have platonic friends, only women they haven't slept with YET. No way Jordan's not angling to tap that.

Guess we'll see. But after the way this played out, Hef may want to think about stronger language on his Playboy cover-altering sticker.

Hugh Hefner is a really nice guy and reeling emotionally after being dumped by Crystal Harris, but that didn't stop him from gaining a little revenge.

The publisher is making sure all copies of July's Crystal Harris Playboy cover come with a giant asterisk of sorts - a red "RUNAWAY BRIDE" sticker!

Before she dumped Hef and called off their wedding, he had already agreed to give her the July cover with the headline, "Mrs. Crystal Hefner."

Too late for a new cover model. Not too late for this:

A ton of copies have already been shipped without the sticker, TMZ reports, but Hefner insists that the big, red mark WILL appear on ALL newsstands.

Way to go, Hef, poking fun at a tough situation and getting back at his ex-fiancee at the same time. Our only complaint is that it's not big enough.

Another idea to help ease the pain? Moving on by dating one of several dozen Crystal Harris carbon copies that already live in HIS OWN HOUSE.

Was Crystal Harris cheating on Hugh Hefner with Dr. Phil's son, Jordan McGraw? Does she really want a career in music? Why is it surprising news that a 25-year old would choose not to marry an 85-year old?

Yes, there are numerous questions surrounding the split of Harris and Hefner, mostly because it took place five days prior to their wedding date.

But this much we know for certain: Playboy couldn't have timed its latest cover any worse. Take a look at the name by which it refers to Harris on the cover:

Seriously, though, what really happened between the couple?

Crystal was a guest on Ryan Seacest's radio program this morning and said there was no big falling out: "It was mutual between Hef and I, there was no fight, we sat down and we talked about it."

It's definitely over for Crystal Harris and Hugh Hefner.

The Playboy founder acknowledged via Twitter yesterday that his 25-year old fiancee walked out on him five days prior to their wedding, and now Harris has also confirmed the split.

"After much deep reflection and thought, I have decided to end my engagement with Hef," Harris said in a statement. "I have the utmost respect for Hef and wish him the best going forward."

So, why did Crystal make this decision, aside from the obvious (dude is REALLY old!)? Sources have linked her to Jordan McGraw, but Harris' rep says this chatter is a "complete fabrication."

Instead, according to various insiders, the problems came down to money and music. TMZ quotes those in the know as saying Harris was annoyed by her "couple hundred dollar" per week allowance, and felt like she didn't have the freedom necessary to pursue a singing career.

It's unclear how this could be the case, though. Aren't 85-year olds asleep by six every night?

The seemingly perfect union between a twice-married 85-year old with a harem of housemates and his 25-year old model of a girlfriend appears to be over before it officially began.

That's right, readers: Crystal Harris has walked out on Hugh Hefner. Five days before their scheduled wedding date!

Crystal has made it clear: she doesn't want to be wife number-three.

Sources at the Playboy Mansion tell TMZ the couple got into such a big argument over the weekend that Crystal has already packed her stuff and moved out.

What was the source of the fight? It's unclear. But rumors have linked Harris with Jordan McGraw, Dr. Phil's son!

That sound you hear, meanwhile? It's Holly Madison frantically dialing her ancient ex.

UPDATE: It's - gulp! - true: "The wedding is off," Hefner Tweeted. "Crystal has had a change of heart."

Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris are not exactly your typical couple.

Their June wedding will reflect their unorthodox nature accordingly.

"The dress is not going to be white," Harris says. "I love pink! So, the dress will be pink and Hef and I want the wedding to be a lot of different colors."

At least they're on the same page, too. Plans are going smoothly!

"It's pretty great that we haven't argued about anything yet," the 24-year-old says. "Things that I feel strongly about, he's okay with, and things that he feels strongly about, I'm okay with doing things his way, so it works out."

The Playboy founder, 84, is in charge of the cake (strawberry) and music.

"Hef's friend Ray Anthony, he has a band," Harris says, "so we're going to have a big band and then we're going to have a deejay at the end of the evening."

Hefner's brother Keith, 82, will serve as his best man, with Hefner's two youngest sons, twins Marston and Cooper, 20, serving as groomsmen. Pretty cool.

What won't be involved? A prenup. Or Jordan McGraw, we're guessing.

The guest list at Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris' wedding is mostly set.

Holly Madison? Not on it.

"I think Holly [Madison] has expressed publicly that it would be a little strange if she was there and I respect that," the Playboy founder said Saturday.

Madison had hoped to marry Hefner but eventually moved on and relocated to Las Vegas. Hefner, 85, moved on and got engaged to Crystal Harris, 24.

The feud between Madison and Harris has been well documented.

The former Girls Next Door star and Hef's #1 girlfriend has slammed her replacement and even questioned Crystal's motives for marrying him.

We can't imagine what she has to say about the couple's reported lack of pre-nup. As for other gals who used to parade around Hef's place nude?

Despite Kendra Wilkinson's claims that she hasn't received a "Save The Date," Hef said. "She knows she's invited. The invitations haven't gone out."

"I never expected to get married again," he added. "But I can't see myself with anybody else, and I just want to give that kind of statement."

"I think Crystal deserves it. I love happy endings."

So does she. Happy endings with so many zeroes.

Hugh Hefner has no intention of making loving, caring fiancee Crystal Harris sign a prenuptial agreement, according to reports. And seriously, why would he?

She's only 60 years younger than he and he only has like $43 million.

Sources close to Hugh and Crystal Harris say neither has even uttered the word "prenup" at any point in their courtship. The wedding is 10 weeks away.

What could go wrong?

There have already been concerns raised by his other exes and even rumors of Crystal cheating with Jordan McGraw. But Hugh's just not going there.

Hef, who has been married twice before, hasn't raised a prenup convo because he "actually cares about Crystal" and doesn't want to ask her to sign one.

Airtight reasoning right there.

Crystal doesn't believe that Hef will bring it up before they tie the knot and, rather stunningly, doesn't intent to raise the issue herself. So it totally works out.
