Marston Hefner, 21, was sentenced to a 52-week domestic violence program and periodic progress reports with the court over the next three years, the Pasadena City Prosecutor’s office confirmed.

The soft-core scion must also continue private therapy and stay away from victim Claire Sinclair – a Bettie Page look-alike and Playboy’s 2011 Playmate of the year – during the de-facto three year probation, prosecutors said.

“At the end of the three years, he can withdraw his plea, similar to an expungement. But it’s contingent upon him obeying all laws and court conditions,” Assistant Pasadena City Prosecutor Chris Blankenhorn told the Daily News.

Marston Hefner was accused of one count of battery on a spouse or cohabitant and one count of vandalizing a laptop computer after the Feb. 12 meltdown.

“The (vandalism) charge was dismissed with a waiver he’ll pay restitution for replacing that,” Blankenhorn said. “They’re not living together anymore. She had moved out prior to charges even being filed.”

If convicted at trial, Marston Hefner faced the possibility of more than a year in jail.

Shortly after the incident, Sinclair posed for TMZ.com with a giant purple bruise on her arm and claimed the heir had been violent before.

“I will not press charges against Marston Hefner if he keeps his word to give a public apology for physically abusing me on several occasions and seeks psychiatric help for his anger issues,” she told TMZ.

“If they care about each other, they’ll patch it up,” Hugh Hefner later told the website.
