Ashton Kutcher Reveals Wife Mila Kunis Talked Him Out Of Virgin Space Flight

Actor Ashton Kutcher revealed his wife Mila Kunis is the reason he hasn’t traveled to space.

Kutcher had a ticket to fly to space aboard Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic ship, but Kunis advised it might not be a “smart family decision.”

“When I got married and had kids, my wife basically encouraged that it was not a smart family decision to be heading into space when we have young children, so I ended up selling my ticket back to Virgin Galactic,” Kutcher said in an interview. “I was supposed to be on the next flight, but I will not be on the next flight.”

Kutcher did confirm that he will be traveling to space “at some point.”

Virgin will complete two more test flights before customers can pay at minimum $250,000 for a seat on a flight to space. The expected launch for commercial flights is in 2022.
