Fans of Kutcher may remember when he posted a note on Twitter that seemed to include his phone number, complete with an Iowa area code for his home state. According to NW, that post was doing more than reaching out to a massive fanbase — it was a call for help.
Calling Kutcher and Kunis “trapped in a bad marriage” after “fights, lies, and loneliness,” the magazine says that when the actor wrote that he was looking for a “real connection,” he was including his wife as one of the people with whom he lacks a connection.
Although “it didn’t take long for the actor to delete the awks tweet,” there was only thing it could be: “a cry for help.” An anonymous source tells the magazine,
When Ashton shared his number, it set tongues wagging.
A family, the magazine argues, should be a pretty obvious source for what Kutcher’s looking for. “It’s pretty odd that he says he misses having a connection with people when he has a wife and two kids at home,” they explain.
“Now it’s raising eyebrows, and people are speculating about the state of Ashton and Mila’s marriage.” It’s somewhat surprising to hear that the development was shocking enough to set both eyebrows and tongues into motion, but the insider says that there was a distinct gap between Kutcher and Kunis.
“Ashton and Mila have had their ups and downs,” they say. “It seems like he must be feeling pretty lonely if he’s going to these lengths. Mila has to find it odd that he wants to spend the little free time he has talking to a bunch of strangers.”
At that point, the magazine asserts, Kunis felt like she and her husband were “living separate lives.” A different, but still unnamed, snitch says,
Mila feels like she’s trapped in a bad marriage.
“They have friends who’ve noticed [the change] and say they’ve definitely grown apart,” the tipster continues. “They often think of having a third [child], but sometimes she feels like she can’t trust Ashton, so why have more children with him?”
The outlet then points to Kunis’ seemingly exasperated response to a question in an interview with Live with Kelly and Ryan where she said that Kutcher gets on her nerves “every day.” The snitch claims,
She and Ashton don’t see eye to eye on many things. Ashton can get on her last nerve. He’s very controlling and particular about the littlest things.
The conflict had been supposedly going on long enough to impact the actress’ health even. “Mila’s anxiety about it all is eating her up, but ironically, she’s hardly eating anything at all,” a source that doesn’t know what irony is tells the magazine. Allegedly, the actress had lost 35 pounds over the stress, according to “one expert’s” estimate.
