As the scandal surrounding Sean “Diddy” Combs escalates, Ashton Kutcher finds himself grappling with the consequences of a once-close friendship.

Combs, 54, currently awaits trial on serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York. With allegations of a sordid criminal enterprise and a reputation tarnished, the actor, 46, now fears that his association with Combs could lead to unforeseen repercussions, as reported by The Daily Mail.

For nearly two decades, Kutcher and Combs shared a bond that many viewed as unshakeable. They often spoke fondly of each other, and Kutcher even attended some of Combs’ lavish White Parties.

However, insiders claim that Kutcher now deeply regrets this friendship, feeling betrayed and manipulated by the hip-hop mogul. As one source disclosed, “Ashton absolutely regrets his friendship with Diddy considering what has happened. He feels lied to, betrayed, taken for granted and manipulated.”

This sense of betrayal extends to Kutcher’s past relationships as well. Insiders reveal that he now only trusts his wife, Mila Kunis, and plans to keep his circle limited to family.

The fallout from his support for Danny Masterson, Kutcher’s former co-star in That ’70s Show, has left him under scrutiny, especially after the backlash over letters he wrote advocating for leniency in Masterson’s sentencing.

Amidst the chaos, Kutcher is reportedly concerned about the possibility of being dragged into the investigation surrounding Combs. “He fears Diddy would have no problem lying to authorities and tossing out some of his famous friends’ names if it meant it could get him out of jail,” said an insider.

Given the severity of the charges against Combs, which include claims of coercion and physical abuse, it’s understandable that those close to him are apprehensive.

Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which stem from alleged “freak offs” — private sex parties that reportedly involved drugs and coercion, sometimes lasting for days.

These events culminated in a horrific incident in 2016 when security footage captured Combs attacking his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, as she attempted to escape. Following her lawsuit against him, many others have come forward with similar claims of abuse.

In light of this grim situation, Kutcher prepares for the potential fallout. He anticipates a subpoena after Combs’ residences were raided, understanding that his past involvement means he may already be implicated. However, sources assure that Kutcher plans to fully cooperate with any investigation, as he maintains he has nothing to hide.

As he navigates this treacherous landscape, Kutcher’s friendship with Combs seems irreparably damaged. A source noted that the turning point came when Kutcher and Kunis witnessed the disturbing footage of Combs’ behavior. “They realized that he was a monster and not someone they want in their life,” the source remarked.

While Kutcher once embraced the celebrity lifestyle alongside Combs, he now faces a stark reality. With the weight of Combs’ charges looming over him, Kutcher is determined to distance himself from the scandal and focus on protecting his family.
