Stodden is best known for her controversial marriage to actor Doug Hutchison when he was 50 and she was 16. Stodden and Hutchison appeared together on Season 2 of the VH1 reality show Couples Therapy and are now separated.
“I was taking online acting courses from him and somewhere in there, you know, we started falling for each other and I, I fell in love with him,” Stodden said. “We married eight months after we started communicating. I was 16 and he was 50 years old.”
