Ashton Kutcher fears Diddy may level false allegations against celebrity friends to defend himself
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ashton Kutcher has expressed deep regrets about his long-standing friendship with Sean 'Diddy' Combs amid serious legal troubles for the music mogul.
As Combs awaits trial on multiple charges, insiders reveal that Kutcher fears the rapper may resort to lying about his famous friends to protect himself. Once close companions, the two have had a relationship spanning nearly decades, but the current allegations have left Kutcher feeling betrayed and cautious.
Ashton Kutcher says he ‘regrets his friendship with’ Diddy
Ashton Kutcher, 46, had been close friends with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs for nearly two decades, often speaking highly of each other and even attending one of Combs' infamous White Parties. However, following Combs' arrest, sources say Kutcher is fearful that the rap star could "say anything, do anything, or turn on anyone" to secure his release.
"Ashton absolutely regrets his friendship with Diddy considering what has happened," an insider told Daily Mail "He feels lied to, betrayed, taken for granted and manipulated."
The source added, "He feels the same way about Danny Masterson. He now trusts no one except for his wife Mila [Kunis]. He is going to keep his circle to his family."
In October 2023, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis faced backlash after they shared letters supporting their former 'That '70s Show' co-star Danny Masterson, urging leniency before his 30-year sentence. Following the criticism, the couple issued an apology video, and Kutcher resigned from his role as chair of his anti-child sex abuse organization.
Now, after navigating the fallout from the Masterson situation, Kutcher is bracing for potential involvement in the investigation surrounding Sean 'Diddy' Combs. Insiders report that Kutcher fears Combs may lie to authorities and implicate his celebrity friends to secure his freedom.
"Ashton does have fears about how this investigation will play out. He feels Diddy would have no problem lying to authorities and tossing out some of his famous friend’s names if it meant it could get him out of jail. Diddy could say anything, do anything or turn on anyone at this point. Everyone who is close to Diddy fears the possibility of Diddy making up false allegations to clear his own name," the source said.
Sources confirmed Ashton Kutcher will cooperate fully as he has nothing to hide
Earlier this year, Ashton Kutcher anticipated receiving a subpoena when Diddy's properties were raided. "He does not want to get involved in this, but knows that his association means he already is" the insider explained. "If he gets contacted by the authorities, he will be fully cooperative as he has nothing to hide.."
While Kutcher acknowledges he has made mistakes, he never imagined Diddy would be involved in such serious allegations.
The insider emphasized that Kutcher had never participated in any of Combs' controversial gatherings, and the breaking point in their friendship came after seeing a video of Combs allegedly abusing his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. "But when Ashton and Mila saw the video of Cassie, they realized that he was a monster and not someone they want in their life."
Combs and Kutcher initially bonded over the actor's MTV show 'Punk'd', with Combs recalling his concern about being targeted on the show. In a 2019 interview, Kutcher described their friendship, mentioning how he encouraged Combs to run the New York City Marathon after a training session together.
The two have supported each other at various public events, including Combs' fragrance launch and his annual white party.
