Ashton Kutcher is known for his fun-loving personality and silly sense of humor, both on-screen and off.
Kutcher married his former co-star Mila Kunis in 2015, and the couple shares two children.
In fact, Michael wasn’t even breathing when he was born, according to"Today.
“Michael survived this but faced more health issues as a young child.
I was called every name in the book on the playground,” he shared with “Today.”
But Ashton always stood up for him, fighting off bullies and making sure to always include him.
“He’s my brother.
When the twins were in eighth grade, Michael suffered another scary health setback.
He was diagnosed with an enlarged heart and given just weeks to live unless he could receive a transplant.
“Now you start running that cycle through your head.
You’re like, ‘This balcony looks far enough to take things.'”
Thankfully, a donor was found within 24 hours and Michael’s heart transplant was successful.
But a silly prank proved more costly than he could have imagined, jeopardizing many aspects of his life.
“[M]y girlfriend broke up with me.
He wasn’t even allowed to attend prom.
But Kutcher revealed that the experience ended up being a wake-up call for him.
“Getting in trouble, learning a life lesson it straightened me out pretty quick,” he explained.
Kutcher met 22-year-old fashion student Ashley Ellerin through friends and the pair got along well.
Kutcher called Ellerin on his way to her place but she didn’t answer the phone.
When he knocked on her door, there was no response.
He looked through a window and saw what he assumed to be red wine spilled on the carpet.
He later found out it was blood.
Ellerin had been stabbed 47 times after getting out of the shower.
“I told [an officer], ‘Let me tell you what happened.'”
The pair had obvious chemistry on-screen and apparently off-screen as well: They began dating after filming wrapped.
… And now we’ve been hanging out a lot more.”
During a press tour for “Just Married,” the couple seemed smitten.
“He’s an extraordinary person,” Murphy gushed.
Despite the love between them, Kutcher and Murphy split in the spring of 2003.
Six years later, Murphy died suddenly.
The actor was just 32 years old.
Kutcher expressed his grief in an interview with “Nightline.”
They seemed blissfully happy and destined for family life together.
But all was not well behind the smiles in the couple’s paparazzi pics.
Kutcher and Moore suffered a devastating loss together not long after they began dating.
Sadly, Moore blamed herself.
I was wracked with guilt and convinced what had happened was my doing.”
Kutcher reflected on the painful ordeal in a 2023 interview withEsquire.
“Everyone deals with that in different ways.”
According to Moore, she believed Leal’s account.
“I knew she wasn’t lying,” she said.
“He admitted it right away.”
Not long after the cheating allegations came out, the couple announced their split.
Moore was initially seeking spousal support from Kutcher to the tune of millions, according to E!
Ultimately, the ex-spouses reached a settlement, with neither receiving financial support from the other.
Divorce feels like a wholesale f***ing failure.
You failed at marriage."
But what worked for Jobs ended up landing Kutcher in the hospital.
On a 2019 episode of"Hot Ones,“Kutcher explained what went awry.
“I started just drinking carrot juice like nonstop, like, all day long,” he said.
“Oh, he’s downplaying it,” she said.
“He was so dumb.
He also, I think, only ate, like, grapes at one point.”
But Roberts’ death hit Kutcher especially hard, especially since the media mishandled reporting the actor’s passing.
Kutcher revealed that it took him nearly a year to fully recover.
The experience also left him questioning if he’d ever have a normal life again.
“You don’t really appreciate it until it’s gone,” he said.
“You start surfing on top of your problems instead of living underneath them,” he told Grylls.
