Courtney Stodden claims sexual abuse while separated from Doug Hutchison

In an interview on the "Tomorrow Show" with Keven Undergaro, 23-year-old "Celebrity Big Brother" alum Courtney Stodden alleged she was sexually assaulted while separated from her husband Doug Hutchison.

She made the reveal when she was asked if she had any personal #MeToo experiences relating to power and sex

"Both -- both power and sex,” she replied, adding that she’ll tell more in an upcoming book.

Stodden explained the many women who came forward to tell their stories as part of the #MeToo and Times Up movement made her realize that she too has been a victim.

After she and her husband -- who she married when she was 16 and he was 50 -- reconciled, Stodden says she never told him about the alleged abuse, which she alleges happened twice.

“At that age -- I was only 19 when my first experience happened -- I didn’t really think it was wrong, which is the crazy part," she explained. "I felt like, ‘Okay, well that’s how sex is.’”

Stodden and Hutchinson separated in 2013 for nine months -- two years after their controversial 2011 wedding -- before eventually calling it quits for good in 2016. In March of 2018 Stodden, officially filed for divorce.
