Crystal Hefner’s favourite film is The Little Mermaid. When her late husband, Hugh Hefner, the Playboy tycoon and notorious libertine, proposed in 2010, he presented her with a music box. Inside was a miniature Ariel, who twirled to Part of Your World, and a ring. “I hope it fits,” was all Hefner said; he never asked her to marry him, and she never said yes. “It wasn’t a question. It wasn’t a choice,” Crystal writes in her new memoir, Only Say Good Things. “Like all things with Hef, it was a transaction.”
