Courtney Stodden is speaking out after Jason Alexander’s apology for a 2012 sketch in which she was just seventeen—revealing he repeatedly touched her inappropriately. She calls for real change, not just apologies, urging Alexander to support California’s AB 1267, which would set the minimum marriage age at 18, and the nonprofit Unchained At Last, which combats child and forced marriages. Stodden, who married at sixteen, sees the apology as a rare but vital first step—and warns that California’s lack of a minimum age is shocking and dangerous. She compares the sketch to a scene in Pretty Woman, calling it exploitative and hoping the moment sparks urgent legislative reform to protect young people.
