In a recent turn of events, actress and model Bijou Phillips has initiated divorce proceedings against her husband, actor Danny Masterson. The decision comes in the wake of Masterson’s ongoing legal battle and recent imprisonment.
Masterson was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison after being found guilty in May on two counts of forcible rape. A jury was hung on a third charge.
Masterson, known for his role in the hit TV series That ’70s Show, has been facing legal troubles related to sexual assault allegations for several years. Recently, he was sentenced to prison, further straining the couple’s relationship.
Phillips, in her filing, cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for divorce. She is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their child. This difficult decision underscores the challenges faced by couples in the public eye and the profound impact of legal battles on personal relationships.
