LOS ANGELES (AP) — Bijou Phillips has filed for divorce from Danny Masterson, days after the former “That '70s Show” star was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison for two rape convictions.
Phillips, a 43-year-old actor, filed a petition in Santa Barbara Superior Court on Monday to end her nearly 12-year marriage to the 47-year-old Masterson, according to the court's website.
An attorney for Phillips did not respond to emails, and a representative for Masterson declined comment.
