Courtney Stodden, 19, Splits With Doug Hutchison, 53, After Two Years of Marriage
She's got her whole life ahead of her to love again! After two very controversial years of marriage, Courtney Stodden has separated from her much-older actor husband Doug Hutchison, a source
confirms to Us Weekly. RadarOnline first broke the story that the buxom model and reality star, 19, and the former Lost actor, 53, were going their separate ways; no word yet on whether either party has filed divorce papers.PHOTOS: Hollywood's weirdest stars
During their courtship and
throughout their marriage, much was made about the considerable age
disparity between the pair -- and Stodden's countless, photo shoots in barely-there swimsuits and less.
According to the source, Stodden's unusual fame -- which she parlayed into a role on a recent season of Celebrity Big Brother in the UK -- was a key factor in the couple's split.
"After Courtney experienced being
in Celebrity Big Brother in the UK she realized that there is this whole
world out there to explore," the source explains. "She was so reliant
on Doug up until doing the show, but after going so far away, she
realized she could survive by herself."
The controversial star's time in London was "her first ever
experience of having indepedence," the source says of the outspoken

"The dynamics had suddenly totally changed. They've been arguing so much since they came back from London."
