Speaking to Esquire in a recent interview, Kutcher revealed that he was "f**king pissed" when his ex-wife Moore released her memoir in September 2019. In the feature published on Tuesday, the actor declined to say much about the matter; however, he shed some light on how the book affected his family. 

"I'd finally gotten to a place where the press had really laid off me and [my wife] Mila [Kunis] and my life and my family," Kutcher said, per Page Six. The "Two and a Half Men" actor is married to Mila Kunis, with whom he has two children, Wyatt and Dimitri.

According to him, Moore's memoir prompted the paparazzi to resume hounding him and his family, even going as far as his children's school.

In her memoir, Moore talked about her and Kutcher's time together, including the two threesomes they had in their relationship. The actress also accused Kutcher of making her relapse into drinking.

During his interview with Esquire, Kutcher talked about the responsibility he had to bear at the time, especially with Moore's three children from her previous marriages. "I was 26, bearing the responsibility of an 8-year-old, a 10-year-old, and a 12-year-old," the actor said. He also disclosed that he still had a relationship with Moore's children.

Moore and Kutcher finalized their divorce in 2013, two years after they separated. Speaking of the time, Kutcher revealed that he felt like a "f**king failure." He continued, "Nothing makes you feel like a failure like divorce. You failed at marriage."

By 2013, the actor became romantically involved with Kunis and married two years later. Speaking about their union, Kutcher commended Kunis for her independence as well as her talents, skills, and gifts. 

He said, "The thing about Mila that made our relationship accelerate was that I had always admired her. Her talent, her skills, her gifts. I knew that she didn't need me. And she knew that I didn't need her. We already knew all of each other's dirt."

Kutcher also shared that Kunis was "so much cooler" than he was. One year after they got married, the "Bad Moms" actress gave birth to Wyatt, and in 2016 they welcomed Dimitri.

After six years together, Moore ended her marriage to Kutcher in 2013. There were reports of Kutcher cheating on her at the time, and the actress all but confirmed it in her announcement when she said she had "certain values and vows that I hold sacred." 

"As a woman, a mother, and a wife there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred, and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life," Moore said according to People Magazine. "This is a trying time for me and my family, and so I would ask for the same compassion and privacy that you would give to anyone going through a similar situation."

The "No Strings Attached" actor was rumored to have cheated on Moore with a 22-year-old blonde allegedly on the night of his sixth wedding anniversary with the actress. Kutcher also released a statement concerning the divorce minutes after Moore's, revealing that he would always "cherish" their time together. 

"I will forever cherish the time I spent with Demi. Marriage is one of the most difficult things in the world, and unfortunately, sometimes, they fail. Love and Light."
