Bijou Phillips is ending her 12-year long marriage with Danny Masterson.
The Almost Famous alum filed for divorce from the That ‘70s Show star on Sept. 18 in California, according to legal documents obtained by TMZ. The former couple's breakup comes two weeks after Masterson was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison for two counts of rape.
Phillips, who wed Masterson in 2011, had been by his side throughout through the legal proceedings, during which prosecutors alleged that the actor sexually assaulted three women—who said they met Masterson through the Church of Scientology—in separate incidents between 2001 and 2003 at his Hollywood Hills home.
Masterson, 47, had pled not guilty but was convicted on two counts of rape in May, with the jury unable to reach a verdict on the third count. (His first trial on the charges had ended in a mistrial in November 2022 after the jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict.)
After Masterson was declared guilty, Phillips cried when he was taken away from the courtroom in handcuffs, according to NBC News.
Phillips and Masterson share daughter Fianna Francis Masterson, 9.
E! News has reached out to Phillips and Masterson's reps for comment and has not heard back.
