Danny Masterson's wife Bijou Phillips 'doing good' after filing for divorce

In September, the same month Masterson received his prison sentence, his wife Bijou Phillips filed for divorce. She requested full legal and physical custody of their daughter, Fianna. The following month, Masterson requested that Phillips, who stood by him during his rape trial, be granted legal and physical custody of Fianna, with visitation rights for himself.

Danny Masterson'swife stood by him. Now she's filed for divorce. It's not uncommon.

In February, Phillips stepped out at a Grammys viewing party. She also briefly spoke to E! News, telling the outlet she's "doing good." She added that she and her daughter are a "great little team."

Ashton Kutcher returns to social media after backlash over Masterson character letters

In September, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis faced significant backlash after writing character letters in support of Masterson, their former co-star on "That '70s Show." They apologized at the time in a video shared on social media.

Kutcher said the letters were meant to "represent the person that we knew for 25 years" so a judge could "take that into full consideration" when sentencing him. But Kunis said they "were not written to question the legitimacy of the judicial system or the validity of the jury's ruling."

"They were intended for the judge to read, and not to undermine the testimony of the victims, or to retraumatize them in any way," Kutcher added. "We would never want to do that. And we're sorry if that has taken place."

Backlash over the letters led Kutcher to resign from Thorn, the organization he co-founded to fight child sexual abuse.

"After my wife and I spent several days of listening, personal reflection, learning, and conversations with survivors and the employees and leadership at Thorn, I have determined the responsible thing for me to do is resign as Chairman of the Board, effectively immediately," Kutcher wrote in a letter. "I cannot allow my error in judgment to distract from our efforts and the children we serve."

In December, Kutcher returned to Instagram with his first post since his apology video with Kunis to wish his followers a happy Hanukkah.

The actor has also returned to posting on X, formerly Twitter. In a November post, he appeared to allude to the backlash while sending a Thanksgiving message. "I'm Thankful for 'No comment', thankful for learning, thankful for listening," he wrote. "Thankful for sharing this life with you."
