Janaury Jones Once Gave a Scathing Review of Her Ex, Ashton Kutcher

Ashton Kutcher has been heavily involved in celebrity scandals in recent years. The famed actor’s proximity to Danny Masterson and now Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has led to speculation about him and his own behavior. While Masterson and Diddy’s scandals certainly brought Kutcher into the negative spotlight, an ex-girlfriend offered up a scathing review of the That 70s Show actor and his character years earlier. Those statements, made by January Jones years after she ended her relationship with Ashton Kutcher, are reemerging now.

January Jones painted Ashton Kutcher in a negative light in 2009

January Jones and Ashton Kutcher dated for several years when she first emerged in Hollywood. The couple’s relationship ended in 2001, just as Jones’ career was really taking off. While neither spoke openly about the breakup, January Jones did make some statements that suggested her former beau was unsupportive of her career. ‘

During a 2009 interview with GQ, Jones stated that she dated someone unsupportive of her acting career. She said they insisted she couldn’t make it as an actor and should remain focused on her modeling career. Jones never mentioned who the infamous ex was. Still, for years, fans assumed she was talking about Kutcher based on the timeline provided. More recently, in 2016, Jones played it coy when Andy Cohen asked about those very remarks during her appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. According to the Daily Mail, Jones did not deny that she was talking about Kutcher.

Ashton Kutcher apparently had jealousy issues, too

Kutcher’s unsupportive nature regarding Jones’ career was not the only problem in the relationship. He also reportedly had a jealous streak. Demi Moore called out her famous ex for accusing January Jones of having an affair with Bruce Willis, whom Moore was married to from 1987 until 1998.

According to Moore’s memoir, Inside Out, Kutcher accused Jones of having sex with her much older co-star when she acted alongside him in the 2001 flick Bandits. Kutcher and Jones’ relationship was winding down at that point. Moore said she later asked Jones about the situation. She said Jones scoffed at the idea, insisting she told Kutcher “100 times” that she didn’t want to “f–k that old man.” Jones is 23 years younger than Willis.

Moore and Kutcher didn’t hook up until years after he ended his romance with Jones. The timing suggests he was still discussing his suspicions years after the relationship ended.
