Years after his death, stories about Hugh Hefner‘s behaviour continue to bubble to the surface.

Recently, Crystal Hefner appeared on the Lisa Guerrero Unleashed podcast, where she went into graphic detail about the Playboy founder’s behaviour in the bedroom.

“I do believe that I did whatever he wanted me to do,” she said. “And if that involved sex, then I just did what he wanted me to do.”

Crystal and Hefner married in 2012 and remained together until he died of cardiac arrest and respiratory failure at the Playboy Mansion in September 2017. He was 91.

The host asked the widow if she believed her former husband raped her during their five-year marriage.

“There were times that were really uncomfortable for me in the bedroom,” she said. “In the bedroom, things would happen that ended up just not being OK.”

The 40-year-old widow also compared Hefner to Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender.

“Hef was his own Epstein, like an open Epstein,” she said. “That was very strange. And I also think Playboy paved the way for this heinous behaviour from other men. It made it OK to see women as objects and not humans.”

‘Disgusting’ behaviour

Crystal said she was also shocked when Hefner tried to get twins to engage in sexual activity with each other.

“That is incest. That is disgusting,” she said. “I didn’t want them to have to do something like that with each other. So that was very, very hard.”

Crystal also alleged that Hefner forced her and other Playmates to use visibly dirty sex toys.

“He’s not gentle,” she said. “After, he’s snoring and I’m like trying to sleep after what happened and my body is in pain.”

Earlier this month, Page Six reported that the former reality star had begged Jessica Biel not to play his wifein the forthcoming Playmates film.

Since his death, Crystal has been outspoken about her late husband.

“Many other women have come forward with allegations of rape, coercion, drugging and exploitation as well,” she said.
