Hugh Hefner's widow, Crystal Harris is once again in the news. Following news about Jessica Biel playing a fictional version of her in the upcoming film titled "Playmates", Harris issued a video message pleading the actress not to go with the role. Harris tied the knot with Hefner in 2012 when she was 26 and remained married until Hefner died in 2017 at age 91. Later, she married James Ward.
"Please reconsider playing Hugh Hefner's 'wife' if this film intends to romanticize him or the Playboy world," Harris said in an Instagram direct message to the "Better Sister" actress. In the message Harris also detailed the "sexual, emotional, financial and physical abuse" she experienced with Hefner.
