Hugh Hefner, the founder of Playboy, has started 2013 as a married man once again.

The 86-year-old exchanged vows with his "runaway bride" Crystal Harris at a private Playboy Mansion ceremony on New Year's Eve.

The 26-year-old was "Playmate of the Month" in 2009 and previously broke off her engagement to Hefner in 2011, just days before they were due to be married.

The couple's ages are separated by six decades. But Hefner has previously spoken about their prospects for a long life together.
