It’s no secret that Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have been close with Danny Masterson over the years. The trio all starred together on “That 70s Show” in their younger years. After Kutcher tied the knot with Kunis, he and Masterson went on to star together on the Netflix series “The Ranch.” However, Masterson was later written off of the show due to his sexual assault allegations.
Throughout it all, Kutcher has been adamant about supporting Masterson. In early 2023, the actor spoke out about his friend’s legal situation. “I don’t want him to elude the law, but I wish for the truth to show he’s innocent,” Kutcher told Esquire (via Rolling Stone). However, he did claim that he couldn’t comment about whether or not his friend was guilty or innocent. “I can’t know… I’m not the judge, the jury, the DA, the victim, or the accused. I’m in no position to comment. I genuinely don’t know,” he added.
