Ashton Kutcher is expecting a subpoena over his ‘good friend’ Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs as part of the hip hop mogul’s s*x trafficking investigation – just months after he and his wife Mila Kunis were shunned for supporting convicted rapist Danny Masterson.
Diddy’s Miami and Los Angeles mansions were raided by federal Homeland Security Investigations agents last month, while his alleged associate, Brendan Paul 25, who was accused of being his ‘drug mule,’ was arrested by police.
Diddy, 54, and Ashton, 46, have been friends for decades, but the former Punk’d host will not be commenting on the scandal, with insiders claiming his wife Mila, 40, has forbidden any contact.
‘There is no way in hell Ashton or Mila will be showing any sort of public support for Diddy right now,’ the source told DaiyMail.com exclusively.

‘Regardless of Ashton’s long history with him, he has distanced himself from Diddy since Cassie’s lawsuit, and even more so in the wake of the new ones.
‘Mila will not let Ashton be in any sort of contact. He is expecting a subpoena as they have been good friends for 20 years.’
In October 2023, Ashton and his wife Mila, 40, came under fire after sharing letters of support for their former That 70’s Show costar Danny, in which they pleaded for the judge to show leniency to the actor before he was sentenced to 30 years.
Danny, 47, had already been found guilty of raping two women when the Hollywood A-listers aired their pleas.
In their letters, obtained by DailyMail.com, both Ashton and Mila spoke highly of Danny, claiming he always ‘treated people with decency, equality, and generosity.’
Following the backlash, the couple – who got married in 2015 and share two children – posted an apology video, and Ashton stepped down as chair of his anti-child s*x abuse organization.
Speaking to DailyMail.com, the insider added: ‘Ashton and Mila have been laying super low since the Danny Masterson support and they are in no way about to get sucked into this mess.
‘They are focusing on their family and their marriage and enjoying the lowkey home life right now.’

Ashton and Diddy’s friendship spans more than two decades, with the pair speaking highly of each other in interviews.
During an appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden in 2018, Diddy revealed that Ashton’s MTV show Punk’d – which he fronted from 2003 to 2007 – brought them together.
He recalled: ‘I gave [Ashton] a call one day and said, “I heard you are going to Punk me and I just don’t think that’s a good idea. If you do that that will not end well for you, but I think we should work out a deal.”‘
Diddy explained that he was fearful of being targeted on Punk’d after watching an episode with Kanye West, adding that it ‘got so dangerous.’
In 2019, Ashton shared more details of his friendship with the rapper during an appearance on Sean Evans’ Hot Ones.

At the time, he said: ‘We became fast friends. We used to just hang out and watch football together.’
Ashton went onto reveal that he also played a part in getting Diddy to sign up for the New York City Marathon in 2003 after he had joined the actor on a run.
He said: ‘Halfway through the run, he’s [Diddy] like “I’m running out of gas right now.” There was paparazzi all around us at the time.
‘He’s like, “You gotta slow down and make it look like you’re not slowing down because I don’t want to look like I’m not going to be able to finish this thing.”
‘And he was losing it.’
Ashton continued: ‘We finish out the run and then he was so upset over the fact that he got skunked on this run that he decided he would run the New York Marathon.
‘He just started immediately training for the New York Marathon.

‘He just can’t lose. Even when he’s that close to humility, it becomes a driver, so then he went out and ran the New York Marathon.’
Ashton has also supported the I’ll Be Missing You rapper at public events.
In 2007, he attended Diddy’s Unforgiveable Woman fragrance launch in New York.
He was also among the A-listers invited to Diddy’s infamous annual white party in Los Angeles in 2009 where he posed for a picture alongside the mogul and actress Demi Moore, 61.
Diddy’s homes were raided by federal authorities on March 24, as part of an ongoing s*x trafficking investigation by federal authorities in New York.
The musician was not detained and spoke to authorities. His son’s Justin, 30, and King, 26, were handcuffed at the scene.
His lawyer later accused officers of a ‘gross overuse of military-level force,’ adding: ‘There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated.’
The statement continued: ‘Mr. Combs was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities.
‘Despite media speculation, neither Mr. Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way.’
The raids came months after Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassie accused him of rape and repeated physical abuse.
Filed in November, her lawsuit claimed Diddy allegedly controlled and abused her for over a decade – as well as plying her with drugs, beating her, and forcing her to have s*x with multiple male prostitutes while he watched and recorded.
The pair, who met in 2005 when she was aged 19, split in 2018. The lawsuit claimed that just before the end of their relationship, he forced his way into her home and raped her.

Among Cassie’s serious allegations was that Diddy s*x trafficked her to male prostitutes to fulfil his voyeurism fantasies in hotels and at his home. The lawsuit was settled.
Diddy vehemently denied all of the ‘offensive and outrageous allegations.’
One day after being filed, the federal lawsuit was settled after they both released statements announcing they had reached an agreement and resolved.
No specific details on the terms of the settlement were revealed.
Less than a week after Cassie’s lawsuit was filed, Joi Dickerson-Neal claimed that Diddy drugged and s*xually assaulted her while she was a psychology student at Syracuse University in January 1991 – alleging that he also filmed the attack.
She claimed Diddy pressured her for a date, and then slipped something into her drink before taking her to an apartment, s*xually assaulting her and filming it.
She alleged he shared the video widely, and claims she was told by DeVante Swing, a member of R&B group Jodeci, that ‘everyone’ had seen the footage.
Joi claimed she was traumatized by the encounter and dropped out of college, failing to complete her degree and abandoning her music career dreams.
She is seeking unspecified damages.
Later that month Liza Gardner also filed a second lawsuit claiming Diddy and R&B singer Aaron Hall s*xually assaulted her at Hall’s apartment in the early 1990s.
In a statement to DailyMail.com, a spokesperson for Diddy vehemently denied the allegations and described it as a ‘money grab.’
In December, another alleged victim came forward to accuse the hip hop mogul and his entourage of gang raping her when she was 17 years old after he flew her to his New York studio in 2003.

Record producer Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones claims he was subjected to a year of grooming and abuse by Diddy
+17
Within an hour of December’s lawsuit being filed, Diddy emphatically denied all accusations against him in a tweet
Diddy immediately tweeted a denial, and said all of the allegations made against him are from people ‘looking for a quick payday.’
In February, record producer Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones claimed Diddy subjected him to a year of groping and ‘constant unsolicited touching of his anus.’
He says he was ordered to recruit prostitutes and have s*x with them for the star’s pleasure, and claimed he has hundreds of hours of video documenting Diddy’s ‘serious illegal activity.’
Lil Rod’s allegations have been slammed by Diddy’s lawyer, who told TMZ he ‘is nothing more than a liar who filed a $30 billion lawsuit shamelessly looking for an undeserved payday.’
‘His reckless name-dropping about events that are pure fiction and simply did not happen is nothing more than a transparent attempt to garner headlines,’ he continued.
‘We have overwhelming, indisputable proof that his claims are complete lies. Our attempts to share this proof with Mr Jones’ attorney, Tyrone Blackburn, have been ignored, as Mr Blackburn refuses to return our calls.’
