Crystal Hefner received 'so much unnecessary hate' during her relationship with Hugh Hefner who was 60 years older than she.
The 34-year-old model and television personality was married to the Playboy founder - who was born in 1926 - for five years until his death in September 2017 and she admits it was a tough time being criticized.
'I really appreciate all the positive and beautiful comments you guys leave. It took a while for my page to get to a place of love,' she shared on Instagram. 'I used to get so much unnecessary hate in my Playboy days about my look, my relationship, and pretty much everything in between.'
