News<\/a><\/em> on Sunday, February 4. As for the pair\u2019s daughter, Fianna Francis Masterson, Bijou gushed that they make a \u201cgreat little team.\u201d<\/p>\n The Connecticut native ended her near 12-year marriage with Danny, 47, on September 18, 2023, two weeks after he was sentenced to 30 years in prison. The That \u201870s Show actor was found guilty of two counts of rape following his 2020 arrest. Bijou stood by Danny\u2019s side during the trial, but ultimately cited \u201cirreconcilable differences\u201d as the cause of their crumbling marriage.<\/p>\n Shortly after Bijou\u2019s divorce filing, a source exclusively told Life & Style<\/em> that the split was \u201cgoing to get ugly<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThis has been a difficult and painful decision to make, but Bijou feels it\u2019s for the best that she ends things with Danny and moves on with her life,\u201d the insider admitted, noting that Danny was \u201cupset\u201d about the divorce. \u201cHe never saw it coming. Bijou was just talking to his lawyers about the appeal. Now she\u2019s done this.\u201d<\/p>\n The insider also revealed to Life & Style<\/em>, \u201cThere wasn\u2019t a prenup, and Bijou has no income right now. She hasn\u2019t acted or modeled in years.\u201d As for their daughter\u2019s relationship with her dad, \u201cBijou doesn\u2019t want to keep Fianna away from her father.\u201d<\/p>\n In November 2023, a different source exclusively told Life & Style<\/em> that Bijou was inquiring a \u201crich man\u201d<\/a> to help maintain her \u201cextremely expensive lifestyle, and there\u2019s no way she can maintain it now that Danny\u2019s out of the picture.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cShe seems to think her only option is to find another rich man to rescue her. She\u2019s discreetly putting the word out, seeing what her options are,\u201d the source admitted.<\/p>\n In the midst of making big life changes, Bijou decided to step away from the Church of Scientology<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s not looking to antagonize anyone within the church, she\u2019s just putting herself first,\u201d a third insider exclusively told Life & Style<\/em> in a February report. \u201cFor so many years, she\u2019s been in Danny\u2019s shadow, dutifully following him and pledging her unwavering loyalty to Scientology<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n Danny will face another legal battle in a 2025 civil suit filed by three victims who claim that the organization harassed them for speaking out against the actor.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s hoping he\u2019ll be reprieved or at least supported by his old Scientology bosses. It\u2019s in both his and their interests to stick together for the trial,\u201d the insider dished to Life & Style<\/em>. \u201cTo be clear, Bijou is not attacking the church and she\u2019s not trying to excuse any of this terrible behavior. She just wants to move forward with her daughter in a brand-new life.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
