Ashton Kutcher admits he was was ‘f**king p**sed’ about ex-wife Demi Moore’s 2019 bombshell memoir

Angry: Ashton Kutcher admitted he was not pleased by his ex-wife Demi Moore’s decision to detail their marital problems in her 2019 bombshell memoir, Inside Out, while gracing Esquire ‘s first-ever digital cover story this month

First marriage: When asked about his feelings about the book, the 44-year-old Vengeance actor stated that he was ‘f**king pissed’ at his former spouse, 60, for reigniting a media frenzy over his personal life; seen in 2003

‘I’d finally gotten to a place where the press had really laid off me and [wife Mila Kunis], and my life and my family. And then the next day, [the paparazzi] are at my kids’ school,’ the father-of-two reflected of the renewed interest of his first marriage, following Moore’s book release.

Focusing on the positive: Despite the frustration, the That ’70s Show alum stopped himself mid-sentence, before concluding that he doesn’t ‘want to open anything up in that realm’

Looking back: During his interview, the People’s Choice Award winner recalled exactly how his ‘life changed’ the ‘moment’ news broke over his relationship with Moore, who is 15 years his senior

Hands full: After they walked down the aisle in 2005, Kutcher became a stepfather to her three younger daughters Rumer, 34, Scout, 31, and Tallulah, 28

‘I was twenty-six, bearing the responsibility of an eight-year-old, a ten-year-old, and a twelve-year-old,’ he said of becoming a stepfather in his mid-twenties. ‘That’s how some teen parents must experience their twenties’

Sad: Kutcher also reflected on Moore’s devastating miscarriage during their marriage, which occurred six months into her pregnancy

‘Losing a kid that you think you’re going to have, and that close to thinking you’re going to have a kid, is really, really painful,’ he said

Dreams of fatherhood: The star continued: ‘Everyone deals with that in different ways. He doesn’t say how he coped at the time’

‘I love kids,’ Kutcher pointed out. ‘I wouldn’t have gotten married to a woman that had three kids if I didn’t love kids. The idea of having another kid would have been incredible.’ But Kutcher wouldn’t change what happened. He accepts that moment. ‘For whatever reason, I had to have that experience’

Tough time: After grieving the loss of their baby-to-be, Kutcher struggled with feeling like a ‘failure’ after their marriage ended

‘Nothing makes you feel like a failure like divorce,’ he said. ‘Divorce feels like a wholesale f**king failure. You failed at marriage’

Sweet: As for his relationship with Kunis, who he wed in 2015 after three years of dating, the performer raved that ‘the thing about’ his wife that made their ‘relationship accelerate was’ how he ‘always admired her’
