Ashton Kutcher was Diddy’s friend for decades.
Now, like everyone who was once linked to the disgraced mogul, Ashton is attempting to distance himself.
And in Ashton’s case, that may involve literal distance.
Ashton Kutcher and Diddy’s long friendship
Like many celebrities who first rose to fame in the ’90s, Ashton quickly formed a close relationship with Diddy.
As you probably know, Diddy is in jail these days awaiting trial on a laundry list of charges. Most of them relate to allegations of sexual assault and sex trafficking.
Many celebrities who were once linked with the rapper, such as Justin Bieber, apparently no longer want anything to do with him these days.
But Ashton and wife Mila Kunis may be taking things a step further. According to a new report from in touchThe Kutcher family may soon relocate to Europe.
a major step
A source told the outlet that Ashton, Mila and their children spent most of the summer abroad. And now, they are eager to return.
“He had a great time in Europe. And in many ways the idea of going there is at the top of their list right now. They think it will be a great place to live and raise their kids with a more grounded lifestyle,” the insider says.
“The only thing stopping them from making that move is work as they still have a lot of business interests in the US so the worry is that Europe may be too far away.”
But it seems that even if Europe isn’t in the plans, the Kutchers are eager to raise their kids away from Hollywood.
“Northern California is very attractive to Ashton because he loves being around all the tech entrepreneurs. And it’s somewhere they can give their kids a more normal life,” the insider says.
The source added, “The main thing is they want to get the kids out of Hollywood and raise them somewhere more rural and away from all the superficiality and gossip.” “They just did it with Hollywood and going up to Montecito isn’t enough for a clean break. They would like to go far.”
ashton’s frustration
Sources close to the actor say Ashton is disappointed that he is being asked to comment on the Diddy situation.
The latest developments come after another sex scandal that indirectly involved Ashton – his friend Danny Masterson was convicted of rape.
“Ashton is so frustrated that once again he is being dragged through the mud because of his past relationships,” the insider says.
“First it was Danny Masterson and now it’s Diddy. And it convinced him that there were better places to live than Hollywood. In his view, the city is just a cesspool at this point.
In the weeks following Diddy’s arrest, several old clips of Ashton discussing their friendship have resurfaced.
“We became fast friends,” Ashton told Sean Evans during a 2019 appearance hot ones“We would just hang out and watch football together.”
When asked about Diddy’s infamous parties, Aston laughed and said, “I have too many that I can’t tell.”
