The ex-wife of That ’70s Show actor and convicted rapist Danny Masterson has undergone life-saving kidney surgery. Page Six reports that Havoc star Bijou Phillips, 46, had a transplant after five months of waiting for a donor. She had been on dialysis for that time, and has now expressed her gratitude on Instagram for having gotten the vital procedure she needed. “I am beyond beyond grateful to everyone who rushed into help me, get checked to donate, you are all hero’s [sic]!” she said, sharing a picture of herself in hospital scrubs. “My wonderful brother [Aron Wilson] donated in the kidney exchange! He saved a life, and the life he saved had a special person donate for them.” She continued: “And then a few weeks later, the voucher program found me a perfect match! So close it’s like I got the kidney from one of my parents! I am so blow [sic] away by Dr. Veale and the magic he does! The kidney exchange, voucher program, and his surgical skills!!! He only cut the facia! He didn’t cut the muscles so I didn’t even really need much pain medication at all, just Tylenol!” she added. “I feel at five days out like I did four months after my last surgery! The technique he developed is brilliant and he is a lifesaver!” Phillips married Masterson in 2011 after meeting at a celebrity poker tournament two years earlier. They welcomed their daughter, Fianna, in 2014. Phillips has been dating Jamie Mazur since 2024. The businessman was engaged to Victoria’s Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio for 10 years with the couple having two children together before they split in 2018.
