Recent rumors suggesting trouble between That ‘70s Show stars Ashton Kutcher, 46, and Mila Kunis, 41, have been swiftly dismissed by sources close to the couple. Online speculation claimed their marriage was under strain due to Ashton Kutcher’s past association with music mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs, but insiders have strongly refuted these speculations.
The rumors surfaced after Diddy was arrested in Manhattan on September 16, facing charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and prostitution-related offenses. The resurfacing of clips from Diddy’s past, allegedly implicating various celebrities, brought Ashton Kutcher’s old friendship with the rapper into the spotlight. However, a source quickly shut down the breakup claims, labeling them “absolutely ridiculous and false.”Another insider addressed the resurfaced photos
of Ashton Kutcher and Diddy, stating to PEOPLE, “Ashton has no involvement in any of this. He doesn’t belong in this conversation.” The source added that Ashton Kutcher’s connection to Sean Combs was limited to a handful of documented social and business events. Ashton Kutcher was previously photographed attending Diddy’s notorious white party in 2009 alongside his then-wife Demi Moore, and had appeared at other public events with the music icon.
Ashton Kutcher had previously opened up about his friendship with Diddy during a 2019 interview on Hot Ones, sharing that they "became fast friends" and would often watch football together. When asked about the rapper’s infamous parties, Ashton Kutcher teased, “I have a lot I can’t disclose... I can’t disclose that one either.”
In light of federal raids on Diddy’s Los Angeles and Miami homes in March 2024, a source revealed to Daily Mail that Ashton Kutcher was anticipating a subpoena due to their 20-year friendship.
Adding to the couple's challenges, Ashton and Mila's reputations took a hit following their support of fellow That ‘70s Show co-star Danny Masterson, who was convicted of two counts of rape in 2023. The married pair faced backlash after it was revealed they had written letters to the court asking for leniency for Masterson. Following public outcry, they released a video apology, but it only worsened the situation, drawing criticism from other celebrities and one of Masterson’s victims.

The fallout from their involvement in the Masterson case eventually led the pair to step down from their leadership roles at Thorn, an anti-child sexual abuse organization Kutcher co-founded with Demi Moore in 2009.

They married in July 2015 and are parents to two children: daughter Wyatt (9) and son Dimitri (7).
