HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Hugh Hefner is insisting that he's over his ex-girlfriend Holly Madison, despite a new interview in which he refers to her as the "love of his life."
In the interview with Los Angeles Confidential, the Playboy mogul hints that he wants the blonde bombshell to move back into the Mansion, but Hefner tells Us Weekly that his comments were taken out context.
"I have no idea where these crazy stories come from," he said in a statement to the mag. "The idea that I'm pining over former girlfriend Holly Madison and would 'welcome her back with open arms' is pure fiction. It was invented by someone to create publicity."
Hefner and Madison split last October after seven years together. The 83-year-old lover has since moved on to his new girlfriends, Crystal Harris and 19-year-old twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon.
"I'm in love with Crystal Harris and wouldn't trade her or the Shannon Twins for anyone in the past," Hef tells Us Weekly.
"Holly will always be welcome here at the mansion, but not as a girlfriend," he adds. "I think she's happy now, and I know I am."
