LOS ANGELES (AP) - Hugh Hefner is celebrating the new year as a married man once again.
The 86-year-old Playboy magazine founder exchanged vows with his "runaway bride", Crystal Harris, at a private Playboy Mansion ceremony on New Year's Eve.
Harris, a 26-year-old "Playmate of the Month" in 2009, broke off a previous engagement to Hefner just before they were to be married in 2011.
Playboy said on Tuesday that the couple celebrated at a New Year's Eve party at the mansion with guests that included comic Jon Lovitz and Gene Simmons of KISS.
