Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis apologize for letters of support for Masterson

Husband and wife Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have apologized for writing character testimonials for Danny Masterson, who was convicted of rape and sentenced to 30 years, Thursday, 8 September. All three starred in "The 70's Show", a sitcom hit that aired in the 2000s.

Kutcher and Kunis' letters went viral after the conviction and the severe backlash and condemnation of the public has left them addressing the issue on Kutcher's Instagram.

"We are aware of the pain that has been caused by the character letters that we wrote on behalf of Danny Masterson," began Kutcher, and Kunis followed with, "We support the victims and we have done this historically through our work…"

The couple, particularly Kutcher, has been branded as a hypocrite, especially since he even testified in Congress on behalf of victims of human trafficking. Commenters have said it is typical for people to pay lip service, supporting victims of sexual assault until it's their friend who's accused and/or convicted.

A lot of the tongue-in-cheek comments said, what can be expected of parents who don't bathe their kids? In reference to their admission a couple of years ago that Kutcher and Kunis don't bathe their kids until they smell.

The other members of the cast have remained silent, save for Debra Joe Rupp and Kurtwood Smith, who also wrote letters on Masterson's behalf.
