Bijou Phillips Confirms Romance with Jamie Mazur After Danny Masterson Breakup

​​​​​​​View Date:2024-12-23 11:30:35

Bijou Phillips is moving on. 

Indeed, nine months after filing for divorce from Danny Masterson in the wake of his conviction and sentencing for rape, the actress made a rare public appearance with a new flame, Jamie Mazur.  

Jamie and Bijou walked side-by-side in New York City's Central Park, where they split a bag of popcorn and were also spotted holding hands. 

For the outing, the Raising Hope alum donned a Stanford University T-shirt, as well as jeans, a cream cardigan and loafers. Meanwhile, Jamie sported a denim vest with a T-shirt, jeans and Converse sneakers. 

The 44-year-old's new romance with Jamie comes less than a year after she filed for divorce from her estranged husband. Although Bijou—who shares daughter Fianna, 9, with Danny—stood by the That ‘70s Show alum throughout his highly publicized trials, she filed for divorce after the 48-year-old was found guilty of two of his three counts of forcible rape, and subsequently sentenced to 30 years to life in prison. 

In February, the Havoc star—who was married to Danny for 12 years—detailed how she and her 9-year-old were coping amid Danny's incarceration. 

"I'm doing good," she told E! News, adding that she and her daughter are "a great little team."

Danny was first arrested for three charges of forcible rape in 2020 for raping two women in his Los Angeles home between 2001 and 2003, as well as a former girlfriend. After a jury deadlocked at his first trial in late 2022, he was retried the following spring and on May 31, 2023, a jury found him guilty of two counts but could not reach a verdict for the third, concerning his former relationship. He was later sentenced to 30 years to life in September 2023. (His attorneys have since filed to appeal the conviction.)

Ahead of sentencing, Bijou—along with longtime friends like Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis—wrote an impassioned character letter on his behalf for his sentencing.  

 

"Danny is an amazing father," Bijou wrote. "Our daughter and I are heartbroken that he is not home with us. It has been very difficult without him here. Even though he is now in jail, he calls her every day. He helps her with homework every night."

E! News has reached out to reps for Bijou for comment but has not yet heard back.
