Hugh Hefner’s son, Cooper, who will likely take over the Playboy empire when (if?) his famous father dies, grew up at the world’s most famous mansion. But, “My parents kept us sheltered from adulthood like any other parent does,” he’s said. “We were kept away from the parties while we were younger.” Poor guy, you might think, until you realize he’s worth $14 million.
Despite being named Cooper, he must’ve been raised right because, at the age of 23, he’s already settled down. Earlier this week, he proposed to actress Scarlett Byrne, best known for playing Pansy Parkinson in the final three Harry Potter movies and starring in Falling Skies.
Hef’s son had jetted overseas to Byrne’s birthplace to ask her father for her hand in marriage prior to getting down on one knee with a massive yellow diamond. After the 24-year-old Harry Potter actress said yes, the families celebrated their happy news — Cooper even brought his grandma along for the trip! (Via)
Cooper’s grandma must have some good stories for the gals during Pinochle night. Hef wasn’t there for the proposal, but he, or one of his intern Bunnies, tweeted, “Sending love and congratulations to my son Cooper and his fiancée Scarlett on their engagement!”
I wonder where the bachelor party will be held.
