Courtney Stodden Had To Block Their Ex-Husband 'Multiple Times' To Limit Contact

Courtney Stodden has always been at the forefront of many headlines. The model made waves when they got married to actor Doug Hutchison at age 16 while he was 51.

Following their divorce in March 2020, after a decade of being husband and wife, Stodden came out as non-binary, with her pronouns being they/them.

After Stodden shared the news, they released a music video called "Pleasure," which was a way of taking back control from their ex-husband and other men who have subjugated them.

Very recently, Stodden came out to unleash more shocking experiences they suffered from their exes. They also revealed that their ex still tries to be in contact with them. Read on to get the full details.

In an interview with InTouch, the model revealed that their ex-husband, to whom they were married for about ten years, still tries to be in correspondence with them.

"I had to block him multiple times," they said of his attempts to communicate with them. "There are times when I feel a struggle. And this is really interesting: I was talking to my fiancé [Chris Sheng] last night. We were at the Ivy last night. We were having a nice dinner, and then, I just started crying mid-dinner, you know, it just comes up."

They also added that there were some times when they wanted answers and would then unblock him. For them, there had to be a physiological reason for why he did what he did to them.

In spite of their ex-husband's persistence, Stodden is grateful for the "strength to move on" and the "grace not to beat themselves up," allowing themselves to "heal."

Stodden also explained to the publication that they were suffering from a "lot of trust issues" in the wake of their split from Hutchinson. However, they claimed that they were undergoing therapy and have been "trying to make sense of all they've gone through." 

They added that it was a tough walk, but they were going to take it one step at a time.

Since their divorce, the model has continually dropped bombshell revelations about their ex-husband, but this time, the model claimed Hutchinson was grooming her.

In the "Call Her Daddy" podcast with Alex Cooper, they recalled how the "Green Mile" actor was able to persuade their parents that they should get married a week after meeting, under the guise of teaching them how to act.

Although Hutchinson claimed not to have known her age, Stodden debunked it, adding that their manager "sent him pictures," and he knew "what I looked like."

They mentioned that their situation wasn't different from "the 3000 underage children who were married to adults between 2000 and 2018." They also assigned the blame to Hutchinson calling him a "predator."

They claimed that Hutchinson had also planned to get married to another minor after the divorce, but they worked to "get the little girl away from him."

"It just became my mission because I [knew] exactly what he was doing," they added.

Stodden once said that their ex, Hutchison, was "ingrained" in them because they were 16 when the relationship started. They claimed that he had his thumbprint all over their spirit, and it would be hard to grow out of him because he's their "identity."

Last year, Stodden took to their Instagram to announce their non-binary status, adding that they'd now be using pronouns they/them.

They shared that as a young child, they never fit anywhere and were bullied in school "because they were different." 

"My spirit is fluid with a kaleidoscope of color. #bekind #beopen #loveyourself," she concluded.

The "Celebrity Big Brother" alum took to their Instagram to announce their big news of getting engaged. The post featured a glittering engagement ring which they captioned, "I said yes ... OH and the ring made me gag it's so beautiful."

Their boyfriend, Chris Sheng, also confirmed the proposal as he shared the pictures of the diamond rock on his Instagram page..

The pair have been dating since 2017 amidst Stodden's breakup with ex-husband. While speaking of their relationship with Sheng to Us Weekly, Stodden admitted that they were "working on themselves" and learning how to "love again" through him.
