Hugh Hefner s widow misses him

Sydney Jan 21 (IANS) Hugh Hefner s widow Crystal Harris still mourns the loss of her Playboy founder husband and says she misses him every day.

Hefner died in September last year.

"I miss him every day. He taught me a lot. He taught me love. He taught me kindness. He was so kind to everybody so welcoming to everybody into his home it didn t matter who you were " Harris 31 told Australia s The Sunday Telegraph.

Since his death Harris says she does not feel the need to be "dolled up" in lots of make-up because that is something she did just to be part of the Playboy image dailymail.co.uk reports.

She said: "I ve never been the heel and dress and full make-up I ve never been that kind of person. Maybe I felt like I had to be in the role I was in being Playmate or being a part of Playboy that I had to be dolled up.

"I think now I am more myself which is the more down-to-earth minimal makeup that is where I feel the most comfortable."

Harris was believed to be a "pillar of strength" in Hefner s final years and stayed by his side through his "declining years".
