Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher were never legally married

Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher have sparked speculation they were never legally married after failing to lodge divorce documents almost a year after splitting.

Demi Moore announced she was ending her marriage in November and Ashton Kutcher has moved on with new love Mila Kunis.

Now new reports have hinted that perhaps the couple were never ever officially married to begin with.

Sources have told Radaronline that the former couple’s Kabbalah wedding was merely a “symbolic ceremony and not a legal marriage”.

The couple wed in September 2005 in a ceremony attended by 150 guests, including Demi Moore’s ex-husband Bruce Willis.

After the pair split last year following allegations that Ashton Kutcher, 34, cheated on Demi Moore with party girl Sara Leal, the 49-year-old actress released a statement saying ending the marriage with “great sadness and a heavy heart”.

Immediately after the announcement, Ashton Kutcher posted his own statement on Twitter.

He wrote: “I will forever cherish the time I spent with Demi.

“Marriage is one of the most difficult things in the world and unfortunately sometimes they fail. Love and Light, AK.”

Despite their dignified statements, Demi Moore was reportedly gearing up to battle it out over their $290 million fortune after enduring public humiliation because of his alleged infidelity.

According to reports, Demi Moore is worth $150m, while Ashton Kutcher’s fortune is said to be worth $140 million.
