<\/p>\n
Mila Kunis claimed Danny Masterson offered to pay Ashton Kutcher money to \u2018French kiss her\u2019 on the set of That 70s Show when she was just 14.<\/p>\n
Unearthed footage of Kunis and Kutcher \u2013 who are now married and 40 and 45 respectively \u2013 appearing on The Rosie O\u2019Donnell show in 2002 has started doing the social media rounds after they were criticised for publicly supporting Masterson last week.<\/p>\n
On September 7, their former co-star was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison, after being found guilty of two counts of forcible rape.<\/p>\n
It emerged shortly afterward that Kunis and Kutcher shared statements on his behalf<\/strong>\u00a0ahead of his sentencing.<\/p>\n In the wake of the backlash, the A-list couple apologised for sending letters of support in Masterson\u2019s rape trial.<\/p>\n But that hasn\u2019t stopped people digging around for old clips of the That 70s Show cast, and in one shared on Twitter over the weekend, a then 19-year-old Kunis tells O\u2019Donnell about a time her and Kutcher\u2019s characters had to \u2018make out\u2019.<\/p>\n The couple came under intense fire for their actions and quickly addressed the criticism in a video.<\/p>\n In a statement shared to Instagram, Kutcher began: \u2018We are aware of the pain that has been caused by the character letters that we wrote on behalf of Danny Masterson.\u2019<\/p>\n Kunis then said: \u2018We support all victims.<\/p>\n \u2018We have done this historically through all our work and will continue to do so in the future.\u2019<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Explaining the meaning behind their letters, Kutcher added: \u2018A couple of months ago, Danny\u2019s 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.\u2019<\/p>\n Kutcher also said their letters were in no way meant to \u2018re-traumatise\u2019 the victims.<\/p>\n \u2018The letters were not written to question the legitimacy of the judicial system or the validity of a jury\u2019s ruling,\u2019 Kunis added.<\/p>\n \u2018They were intended for the judge to read,\u2019 stated Kutcher. \u2018And not to undermine the testimonies of the victims or re-traumatise them in any way. We never want to do that.\u2019<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Cw-6kG2PusA\/<\/p>\n \u2018We\u2019re sorry that that has taken place,\u2019 he added as Kunis nodded.<\/p>\n \u2018Our hearts go out to every single person who\u2019s ever been a victim of sexual assault, sexual abuse, or rape,\u2019 she concluded.<\/p>\n Other people\u00a0who are known to have sent letters<\/strong>\u00a0of support for Masterson include actress Debra Jo Rupp and actor Kurtwood Smith, who played Kitty and Red Forman on\u00a0That \u201870s Show.<\/p>\n Letters were also submitted by Smith\u2019s brother-in-law, actor William Baldwin, and brother\/sister actors Giovanni and Marissa Ribisi.<\/p>\n Metro.co.uk has reached out to Kutcher and Kunis\u2019 reps for comment.<\/em><\/p>\n Got a story?<\/strong><\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got a celebrity story, video or pictures get in touch with the Metro.co.uk entertainment team by emailing us celebtips@metro.co.uk, calling 020 3615 2145 or by visiting our Submit Stuff page \u2013 we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n
