Nakon osnovne i srednje škole otišao je u vojsku, a poslije se oženio. Njegova supruga mu je priznala da je imala aferu dok je bio u vojsci. Sam Hefner je to nazvao "najgorim trenutkom u mom životu." Njegova supruga nije se protivila ako je on htio imati ljubavnice. Nakon deset godina braka i dvoje djece, Davida i Christie, razveli su se 1959. godine.

Known to friends and family as simply "Hef,"[36] in 1949, Hefner married Northwestern University student Mildred ("Millie") Williams. They had two children: daughter Christie (b. 1952) and son David (b. 1955).[37] Before the wedding, Mildred confessed that she had an affair while he was away in the army. He called the admission "the most devastating moment of my life." A 2006 E! True Hollywood Story profile of Hefner revealed that Mildred allowed him to have sex with other women, out of guilt for her own infidelity and in the hope that it would preserve their marriage. The two were divorced in 1959.[38][39]
Otišao je iz [[časopis]]a "Esquire" (gdje je radio kao ''copyrighter'') [[1953.|1953]]. godine, nakon što su mu odbili povišicu plaće od 5 [[dolar]]a. Iznajmivši namještaj za 600 i dobivši još 8.000 dolara od 45 investitora (uključujući i 1.000 dolara od majke), u prosincu [[1953.]] godine na stolu je složio prvi broj Playboya koji se originalno trebao zvati "Momačka večer" (''Stag Party'').
Hefner remade himself as a bon vivant and man about town, a lifestyle he promoted in his magazine and two TV shows he hosted, Playboy's Penthouse (1959–1960) and Playboy After Dark (1969–1970). He admitted to being "'involved' with maybe eleven out of twelve months' worth of Playmates" during some of these years.[40] Donna Michelle, Marilyn Cole, Lillian Müller, Shannon Tweed, Barbi Benton, Karen Christy, Sondra Theodore, and Carrie Leigh – who filed a $35 million palimony suit against him – were a few of his many lovers. In 1971, he acknowledged that he experimented in bisexuality.[41] Also in 1971, Hefner established a second residence in Los Angeles with the acquisition of Playboy Mansion West and, in 1975, moved there permanently from Chicago.[42]
Nije ga datirao jer nije bio siguran hoće li biti drugog broja.
In 1985, Hefner had a minor stroke at age 59. After re-evaluating his lifestyle, he made several changes. The wild, all-night parties were toned down significantly and in 1988, daughter Christie took over the operation of the Playboy empire. The following year, he married Playmate of the Year Kimberley Conrad; they were 36 years apart in age. The couple had two sons: Marston Glenn (born 1990) and Cooper Hefner (born 1991).[43] The E! True Hollywood Story profile noted that the notorious Playboy Mansion had been transformed into a family-friendly homestead. After he and Conrad separated in 1998, she moved into a house next door to the mansion.[44]
Hefner became known for moving an ever-changing coterie of young women into the Playboy Mansion, including twins Sandy and Mandy Bentley. He dated as many as seven women concurrently. He also dated Brande Roderick, Izabella St. James, Tina Marie Jordan, Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt, and Kendra Wilkinson. Madison, Wilkinson, and Marquardt appeared on The Girls Next Door depicting their lives at the Playboy Mansion.[45] In October 2008, all three girls decided to leave the mansion. After an 11-year separation, Hefner filed for divorce from Conrad citing irreconcilable differences.[46] Hefner has stated that he only remained nominally married to her for the sake of his children,[47] and his youngest child had just turned 18.[43]
In January 2009, Hefner began a relationship with Crystal Harris;[48] she joined the Shannon Twins after his previous "number one girlfriend", Holly Madison, had ended their seven-year relationship.[49] On December 24, 2010, he became engaged to Harris, to become his third wife.[50] Harris broke off their engagement on June 14, 2011, five days before their planned wedding.[51] In anticipation of the wedding, the July issue of Playboy, which reached store shelves and customer's homes within days of the wedding date, featured Harris on the cover and in a photo spread as well. The headline on the cover read "Introducing America's Princess, Mrs. Crystal Hefner".[52] Hefner and Harris subsequently reconciled and married on December 31, 2012.[53][54][55][56]
Hefner's brother Keith died at the age of 87 on April 8, 2016, one day before Hefner's 90th birthday.[57]
