Crystal Hefner Brands Dr. Phil An ‘Entitled Bad Actor’

The TV star, 73, encouraged Crystal to leave her “trapped” surroundings, and eventually, Crystal found the courage to do so. At the time, she felt empowered by Dr. Phil’s words, but later on, she came to believe he had an “ulterior motive” — making her his son’s arm candy.

“I was convinced by bad actors to give up something I shouldn’t have let go,” she wrote in her book. “Dr. Phil’s words on his couch on the day that Jordan sent me up there to him started to seem so sinister — not a kind man giving good advice, but an entitled man used to getting his way, trying to get his son something he wanted.”
