Hugh Hefner‘s 21-year-old son Marston was taken into custody Sunday evening for allegedly assaulting 2011’s Playmate of the Year, Claire Sinclair.

Sinclair had suffered minor injuries according to authorities. Marston was charged with battery on a spouse (the pair are not married, but California state law also considers a cohabitant a spouse) and released early Monday morning after posting $20,000 bail.
Monday, Sinclair seemed to comment on the situation, tweeting, “There’s two types of pain in the world – pain that hurts you, and pain that makes you stronger. All of your positivity is giving me strength.”
