In the latest twist of the ongoing saga surrounding former ‘That ’70s Show’ actor Danny Masterson, his estranged wife, Bijou Phillips, is reportedly grappling with the emotional fallout of his recent prison transfer. The convicted rapist’s move from North Kern State Prison to Corcoran State Prison has proven to be “very triggering” for Phillips, who is still navigating the aftermath of their divorce. The prison’s notorious history, marked by gruesome violence, has only intensified the emotional toll on the actress.
Bijou Phillips’ Heartbreak:
Phillips filed for divorce from Masterson following his sentencing to 30 years for the rape of two women in the early 2000s. Despite the official end of their 12-year marriage, sources reveal that Phillips is struggling to heal from the heartbreak and is apprehensive about upcoming significant events, including her daughter’s birthday – the first celebration without Masterson.
Emotional Toll of Masterson’s Transfer:
Masterson’s relocation to Corcoran State Prison has reportedly taken an “emotional toll” on Phillips this week, according to an insider. The source suggests that the move has stirred up past emotions, making it particularly challenging for Phillips to cope. Despite her attempts to find stress relief through outings and vacations, the actress is still grappling with the profound changes in her life.
Ongoing Emotional Struggles:
The insider shared that Phillips is enduring an emotional toll that will likely persist for an extended period. Stress and heartache have marked her life, compounded by her father’s accusations. In 2009, her sister accused their late father, John Phillips of The Mamas and the Papas, of rape. Phillips defended her father, adding an additional layer of complexity to her personal history.
‘Birthday Dread’ and Mama Bear Mode:
As Phillips attempts to mend her broken heart, the source claims she is in “mama bear mode.” Birthdays, especially the upcoming celebrations, are expected to be challenging for her, serving as poignant reminders of what has been lost. The actress is said to be dreading these occasions, reflecting on the profound impact on her family.
Corcoran State Prison: A Troubled History:
Corcoran State Prison, where Masterson is now incarcerated, has a history marked by shocking incidents, including the gruesome beheading of an inmate that went unnoticed by guards. Notably, it was also the prison where notorious serial killer Charles Manson lived until his death in 2017. A high-profile murder involving inmate Jaime Osuna allegedly torturing and decapitating his cellmate adds another layer of concern to Masterson’s new location.
