Hugh Hefner Finally Gets Around to Divorcing

5584937hughhefner99200945141pm

Hugh Hefner and his wife Kimberly Conrad (she’s an ex-Playmate, obviously) split back in 1998.  She really has been the original “girl next door” as she lived in a property adjacent to the manse where she lived with their two sons.  Now, after many years of very cordial separation, things are getting a bit ugly.  

Hef sold Kimberly’s house which prompted her to sue.  He also finally the paperwork to get officially unhitched.  With that, he had to expose his monthly earnings:

  •  Salary from Playboy: $116,667
  •  Social Security: $1,896
  •  Dividends and interest: $121,099 
  •  Rental property: $17, 058
  •  Income from HMH Productions: $15,808 
  •  Pensions and retirement: $413
  •  Other miscellaneous income: $17,639

This is what Hef spends a month:

  •  Rent (including groceries, household supplies, utilities, cell phone and email): $53,593
  •  Food (approximate): $18,000
  •  Entertainment: $25,000
  •  College expenses for kids: $10,130
  •  Health care: $3,215

Wait — $18,000 a month on food?  For what?  Bunny food is more expensive than college tuition and health care combined?  It’s not like those twin twats eat anything, anyway.  I challenge these numbers.

Other assets include about $36M in stock, $6M in a joint account and $306,000 in liquid cash.  Bottom line?  HH is worth $43M and the cheap old prune wants spousal support to be set at $20,000 a month.  $20K to his wife of two decades and mother of his children?  Cripes, he spends that much on food …

  • **** Wendie Speak ****

    “manse” = Mansion

    “finally” = Finalized

    **** Evil Beet Readers Speak”

    “Wendie” = Moron

    • Oh, come on! A big boys gotta eat, Wendie! Totally kidding; thats friggin 9 times what my parents pay for rent. I totally agree with Catherine about the social security thing. But hell, what can you expect from a man who makes a living turning women into sex objects.

    • He paid money into Social Security for years..probably a hell of a lot more than he is getting out. Save your outrage, and your money! Maybe one day you too can collect Social Security.

  • I think that’s bullshit. First of all, he should not be able to collect any kind of money from the goverment whatsoever, i think that’s wrong in so many levels. Second of all, why in the fuck would he pay rent??? rent for what??? he’s worth 43 million dollars ffs!! if i had 5,000 the first thing i would do is use it for a down payment on a fucking house like normal people do… That is really stupid of him. And then 38,000 a month for food and entertainment???? what the fuck!!!???… Not even octomom, or the dungars (or whatever their name is…) spend that kind of money on fucking grceries.. That is total bullshit!!
    It’s absolutely amazing that the goverment gives him money just like that.. We live in a sick sick world..

    • Look at the post on the previous Page where Christian Audiger shells out $100 000 a month for rent. That is exactly why I have no sympathy when ppl like that guy who got axed from Greys end up homeless. Wait.. what is the min. percentage of a down payment in the US? $5 000???? Im trying to save up $48 000 for a down payment!

    • He paid money into the government..he should be able to receive benefits. The Playboy Corporation owns the mansion, and he pays rent back to it. The government does not “give” him money…YOU PAY FOR SOCIAL SECURITY.

    • You may not have noticed, but the rent includes groceries, household supplies, utilities, cell phone and email. He may not even pay any rent at all, it’s just the heading that stuff goes under.

  • Why shouldn’t he be able to collect social security? I mean it’s his money. I’m assuming since he qualified for it in the first place, he’s been paying his FICA taxes all these years. Why shouldn’t he get that back?

  • “Food” probably covers the alcohol and catering for events that go on at his mansion. He may also wine and dine investors. Who knows ?

  • Hef is apparently trying some accounting games to get around the alimony. He is also “renting” the mansion to dodge the property taxes. The mansion is the corporation’s and written off as a business expense for the parties, etc.

    I think it is interesting that he is trying to divorce his wife now. Apparently, someone told him that she, as his legal wife, would get the estate when he dies. So he is trying to cut his losses for his heirs by divorcing her now.

    Yes, he is pond scum.

  • Twenty years ago Kimberly Conrad Hefner called fine art publisher
    Carrie Leigh a gold digger and Carrie walked away with nothing to
    build her own empire. Noe the god digging whore Kimberly is out for
    all Hef has left. My my history plays out in the funniest of ways.
    I hope Hef lives long enough to prove what he has always said, “Kimberly had sex with the household help within weeks of the wedding.
