Hugh Hefner, the founder of the legendary men’s magazine Playboy, has always been surrounded by the first beauties. At the same time, he managed to marry three times, he had four children: three sons and a daughter. One of the sons, Cooper Hefner, rose to public prominence when he married Scarlett Byrne, best known for her role as Pansy Parkinson in the Harry Potter film series. And now another offshoot of the media mogul, Marston Hefner, is making headlines. We tell you why.
Marston’s mother was blonde model Kimberley Conrad, who in 1988 became Playboy’s Playmate of the Month.
On July 1, 1989, Hefner and Konrad were married. He was 63 years old. She is 26 years old. The press described marriage as a defining cultural moment – the final domestication of a bachelor. The wedding even made the cover of People magazine.
With Hefner, Kimberly was 10 – they divorced in 1998. Marston’s childhood was spent in that same legendary Playboy mansion, full of half-naked girls and provocative portraits on the walls.
