Bijou Phillips Seeks to Remove Masterson From Daughter’s Surname as Court Declares Both Legally Single

The petition follows her 2023 divorce filing after his rape conviction.

Overview

  • Phillips filed on Oct. 24 to change her 11-year-old’s name from Fianna Francis Masterson to Fianna Francis Phillips, according to court documents.
  • A judge has not yet approved the name-change request.
  • On the same day, a court updated both Phillips and Danny Masterson’s legal marital status to single.
  • Phillips holds full legal and physical custody of their daughter, with Masterson previously seeking visitation rights in court filings.
  • Masterson is serving a 30-years-to-life sentence at North Kern State Prison and has an appeal pending that was filed in December 2024.
