Courtney Stodden urges Jason Alexander to take action with her apology
tmz Jason Alexander has given $15,000 to Unchained at Last, a non-profit organization dedicated to ending child marriage in the United States. Sources revealed the donation after Alexander made a public apology to Stodden. A representative for Alexander confirmed that he had made the donation. The representative did not comment on the amount.
The donation was made after Alexander apologized for the Funny or Die sketch he made with Stodden in 2012. Stodden was 17 when the sexually charged sketch was filmed. She recently said she was watching Pretty Woman again, and it brought back painful memories of that experience. Alexander played businessman Philip Stuckey opposite Julia Roberts in the 1990 film.
TMZ reports that Courtney Stodden told them that the film reminded her of the emotions she felt during the 2012 sketch. She accepted Alexander’s public apology and urged him to follow up his words with meaningful action. In addition to apologizing, Stodden asked Alexander to help Unchained at last. Alexander made the donation, which his representative later confirmed to the outlet.
Courtney Stodden is a strong supporter of the organization and its mission. Stodden supports Unchained at Last because she has experienced child marriage herself. She legally married actor Doug Hutchison in 2011, when she was 16, while Hutchison was 51. The charity took another step towards this cause after Alexander apologized to them.
