Former actress Bijou Phillips, amidst the ongoing divorce proceedings with her estranged husband Danny Masterson, found solace in a girls’ trip to the picturesque South of France. Sharing moments of joy and camaraderie on social media, Phillips, 44, highlighted her excursion alongside notable friends Nicky Hilton Rothschild and Paris Jackson.
The getaway comes as a respite for Phillips, who has been navigating her divorce from Masterson, the former "That '70s Show" star currently serving a 30-year prison sentence after being found guilty on two rape charges. Despite the tumultuous legal battle, Phillips maintained a positive outlook, captioning her Instagram post with expressions of love and gratitude towards her companions.
The divorce proceedings, initiated by Phillips in September 2023 citing "irreconcilable differences," underscored the challenges faced by the couple. Despite their shared involvement in the Church of Scientology and a decade-long marriage, Phillips prioritized her daughter’s well-being and future, ultimately seeking full custody.
Friends and family reportedly encouraged Phillips to prioritize her role as a mother and consider divorce to set an example for her daughter and protect her assets. Despite the adversity, Phillips exhibited resilience, emphasizing her commitment to her daughter’s upbringing and securing a stable future.
While the trip provided a temporary escape, Phillips remains focused on her daughter’s welfare and navigating the complexities of divorce from Masterson. As she continues her journey post-divorce, Phillips exemplifies strength and determination in the face of personal challenges.
