Crystal weds hard-sell Hef

Maybe she thinks he’s sexier the second time around.

Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, 86, has a new Playwife — former runaway bride Crystal Harris, 26 — who slammed Hef’s staying power in the sack after she dumped him days before they were to get hitched in 2011.

The millionaire mogul swapped his usual silk pajamas for a tuxedo, and the bosomy blond wore a pale pink strapless gown at the New Year’s Eve ceremony at the Playboy Mansion in Beverly Hills.

Hefner and the Playboy Playmate of the Month for December 2009 tied the knot as permanent playmates under an arch of pink, purple and white flowers.

The gushing bride spent part of Monday tweeting her joy. “Today is the day I become Mrs. Hugh Hefner,’’ she wrote. “Feeling very happy, lucky and blessed.’’

She didn’t feel that way when she bailed out five days before their scheduled June 2011 nuptials.

Her cold feet were so last-minute that Playboy’s July issue — featuring her on the cover to introduce “Mrs. Crystal Hefner,’’ had to have stickers slapped on proclaiming “Runaway Bride.’’

Harris told Howard Stern that she and Hef had sex once and it “lasted like two seconds.’’

“Then I was just over it,’’ said Harris, who had been dating Hefner two years after she caught his eye at a party. “I couldn’t even stay another couple days . . . I couldn’t do it.’’

“I was like, ‘Ahhh.’ I just, like, walked away,’’ she continued.

“I’m not turned on by Hef, sorry,’’ she said at another point.

Hefner has been married twice before and has four children.
