Topher Grace’s wife Ashley Hinshaw made a post to her Instagram story in solidarity with sexual abuse victims.
The Chronicle star wrote, in a screenshot obtained by Page Six, “To every rape victim that is that is retraumatized by witnessing society debate and focus their attention on what is going to happen to the RAPIST … I see you.”

This post came a day after Masterson was sentenced 30 years to life in prison for raping multiple women, and after years prior of numerous women coming forward with sexual abuse allegations.
While That ’70s Show stars Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, Debra Jo Rupp, and Kurtwood Smith have written letters to the judge presiding over Masteron’s case, Grace has stayed quiet.
Fans across Instagram and Twitter have been praising Grace and Hinshaw for their unproblematic behavior, and Hinshaw for her support for sexual abuse and rape victims.
One Twitter user wrote: “I remember reading years ago that Topher Grace never spent time with the cast, and he was labeled an a*****e for it. I think we all know why he never spent time with the cast now.”
Another user wrote, “Distance himself from toxic co-stars/ Never looked back and completely disassociated from/ Never defended a rapist or wrote letters on their behalf/ Topher Grace a pretty cool guy.”
While former co-stars Laura Prepon and Wilmer Valderrama have also stayed quiet, people were quick to call out their toxic behavior as well. Many were quick to call out Prepon being a Scientologist from 1999 to 2016, and how Valderrama continually dated girls in their teens and right when they turned 18.
