Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have apologised for sending letters of support in Danny Masterson’s rape trial.
In a video uploaded to Instagram, Kutcher began: ‘We are aware of the pain that has been caused by the character letters that we wrote on behalf of Danny Masterson.’
Kunis then said: ‘We support all victims.
‘We have done this historically through all our work and will continue to do so in the future.’
Explaining the meaning behind their letters, Kutcher added: ‘A couple of months ago, Danny’s family reached out to us and they asked us to write character letters to represent the person that we knew for 25 years so that the judge could take that into full consideration relative to the sentencing.’
Kutcher also said their letters were in no way meant to ‘re-traumatise’ the victims.
