Nik Richie: Courtney Stodden’s husband is a child molester

Normally, I’d say that if you’re willing to appear on a VH1 celebreality TV show, you probably shouldn’t be throwing stones since they put you up in a glass house. Except for this particular instance, because it’s hilarious. According to TMZ, blogger Nik Richie (of TheDirty.com fame) said what we were all thinking by calling Courtney Stodden‘s husband, Doug Hutchison, a child molester while taping Couples Therapy. I have nothing to add to this except A-DOY.

The show began filming last week — and sources tell TMZ, when Courtney’s husband Doug Hutchison introduced himself to TheDirty.com‘s Nik Richie … Richie refused to shake his hand. According to sources, Richie then called the guy a “child molester” and refused to say another word to him. We’re told Doug was deeply offended by the remark and has been extremely upset since. The standoff has created a rift among the cast. FYI — Doug married Courtney in Vegas last year … when she was just 16. Courtney’s mother had to sign a consent form permitting the marriage because Courtney was under 18 at the time.

I just love how TMZ reminds us that Courtney’s mom had to sign a permission slip, like her daughter was going on a field trip to a museum or something, when she was really just marrying a man in his fifties for attention. “All right honey, I packed you a lunch, there’s some dunkaroos, and here’s a camera to take lots of pictures. Have fun entering a life-long commitment to have sex with a middle-aged man despite the fact that you’re too young and lack the emotional, physical and psychological maturity to make a life-changing decision! Don’t miss your bus!”
