Reflecting on his marriage, Kutcher was pretty transparent about his bond with the G.I. Jane Star, revealing that he battled with jealousy following Moore’s history with Bruce Willis, Considering Willis and Moore were also among the most talked about couples of the 90s, The Butterfly Effect Star had a hard time getting along with Willis.

Ashton Kutcher and Bruce Willis Eventually Buried the Hatchet

Despite their jealousy, Ashton Kutcher and Bruce Willis eventually buried the hatchet, becoming good friends in the process. Although it took time for Kutcher to get over his jealousy, things eventually got easier as things between the two progressed. Even though they might not see eye to eye on every matter, there was no longer any rift between the two. Kutcher explained,

“But once you overcome the jealousy, which is just your own personal insecurity, it gets easier. People ask us, ‘How do you guys get on so well?’ Well, I don’t like everything Bruce does, and I’m sure he doesn’t think everything I do is great But being with Bruce is normal to me now. We go scuba-diving, skiing, we hang out with the girls together, we watch movies, we talk about sport.”
