Hugh Hefner to Marry Again?

By: Shannon Gossage

Hefner currently has three girlfriends – Madison, Bridget Marquardt, and Kendra Wilkinson – and he is reportedly going to marry Madison by the end of the year. Hef’s relationship with the girls is the focus of the hit reality show "The Girls Next Door" which airs on the E! Channel and depicts what life at the Playboy mansion is like. A source close to Hef said that he wants to get married on the show and said, "Hef thinks business all the time, and looks for a new hook, although he really does love Holly. Kendra is never there, and they both hate each other, and Bridget is hanging on by being very friendly to Holly"

It has not been confirmed whether or not Hefner, 80, and Madison, 27, will be tying the knot but a source said, "This is very secret, but the word is ‘yes.’" Sources say that Madison has been trying to get Hefner to get her pregnant and that he is considering it but wants to take the steps to make it legal. The wedding is reportedly supposed to take place by the end of the year.

If the couple goes through with the wedding this will be Madison’s first marriage and Hef’s third. He was previously married to Mildred Williams. The couple tied the knot in 1949 and was divorced 10-years later in 1959. The couple has two children, Christie and David Paul. Hefner married Playboy Playmate Kimberly Conrad in 1989. The couple separated in 1998 and has two sons, Cooper and Marston.
