Ashton Kutcher is stepping down as chairman of the anti-child-sex-abuse organisation Thorn, which he co-founded in 2009 with then-wife Demi Moore, amid backlash over his letter of support for the now-convicted rapist Danny Masterson.

Mila Kunis, to whom Kutcher is now married and who also wrote a letter of support for Masterson, is also stepping down from her role as an observer on the board. The couple co-starred with Masterson in That ’70s Show between 1998 and 2005.
