Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher took a lot of heat after they defended their friend Danny Masterson following his sexual assault conviction. The famous couple were scrutinized for writing character letters for Masterson, and eventually had to issue a public apology for their decision. Now, Kutcher seems to be under fire again as his close friend, Diddy, has been arrested for sex trafficking. Kunis allegedly doesn’t want to deal with anymore negative press, so she’s said to be keeping her husband in line amid the scandal.
The Mirror reports that Mila Kunis is holding Ashton Kutcher back from making a huge mistake as all eyes are on them currently. Because of Kutcher’s once close friendship with Diddy, the pair are rumored to have some involvement with the disgraced rapper’s wild parties. However, they’ve opted not to speak out on the drama. Instead, they’ve been seen going on dinner dates and spending time with their two children. The family outings could be part of a plan to help their image during this tense time.
“There is no way in hell Ashton or Mila will be showing any sort of public support for Diddy right now,” an insider revealed. “Regardless of Ashton’s long history with him, he has distanced himself from Diddy since Cassie’s lawsuit, and even more so in the wake of the new ones. Mila will not let Ashton be in any sort of contact. He is expecting a subpoena as they have been friends for two decades,” the source added.
Mila Kunis Keeping Ashton Kutcher In Line Amid Diddy Scandal
Since Diddy’s arrest, Kutcher’s former comments about his friendship with the music mogul have come back to haunt him. The resurfaced clips reveal the TV star’s words about partying with Diddy and their close relationship. Now, fans are on high alert. Some even expect that Ashton and possibly Mila could know more than they’re letting on.
“This isn’t good Ashton Kutcher is supposed to be a champion for human trafficking,” one person wrote on Reddit.
“Him and Mila don’t exactly keep good company,” another pointed out.
“Pretty easy to connect the dots on this one,” said another.
“Mila is keeping him on a short leash. She doesn’t want to have to issue another public apology like with Danny Masterson,” a fourth comment read.
For now, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are keeping their distance from the Diddy drama. The actor is also said to be in the clear from the federal investigation. However, as the situation continues to play out there is no telling what will come out about Diddy’s famous friends.
