Danny Masterson’s wife, Bijou Phillips, has filed for divorce nearly two weeks after he was sentenced to 30 years in prison for rape.
Phillips reportedly filed to legally end her marriage to the “That ’70s Show” star on Monday in a California court.
Previously, Phillips stood by her convicted husband, with some reports inaccurately claiming that she had no plans to divorce him.

It makes sense, given that Danny Masterson was recently sentenced to 30 years in prison for rape and sexual assault, and won’t see the light of day for a long time.
According to court documents, she filed for separation on Monday, September 18. This divorce filing comes as a surprise, as earlier reports claimed she had no plans to separate from the actor and stood by his side despite his crimes.
It should be noted, there may be insurance and financial issues behind the decision — given that he could pull the trigger at any time during his criminal trial. Also, this might have been his plan all along, because breaking it off during the trial might make him look guilty.
