A Timeline of Danny Mastersons Relationship History

With 'That '70's Show' Danny Masterson's rape trial underway, we take a look back at Danny's relationship history and how Scientology has come into play.

Content Warning: This article mentions allegations of physical abuse, sexual misconduct, and rape.

Long gone are the days of laughing at Steven Hyde from That '70s Show because Danny Masterson, the actor who portrayed him, is being charged with raping three women. All of Masterson's accusers are former Scientologists, who say the church pressured them to stay quiet about their experience.

While the claims were first made public by the victims back in 2017, charges weren't filed until three years later. Now, with the criminal trial finally underway and the victims bravely testifying — some of which were in relationships with Masterson — we're taking a look back at his relationship history.

Christina Carnell Bixler (1995-2002)

Christina Carnell Bixler, better known as Chrissie, is a former model and actress who dated Danny Masterson from 1995 to 2002. She's also one of the victims in the trial and has given powerful testimony against Masterson.

The pair originally met when Danny recruited her into the Church of Scientology. At the time, she spoke to the church about being raped by her then-boyfriend, to which a representative replied, "You don’t rape someone you’re in a relationship with."

Natalie Martinez (2003)

While we're unsure of the exact timeline of Natalie Martinez and Danny Masterson's relationship, it goes back to at least 2003 as they were seen at an MTV Made event together. We know Natalie from TV series such as The Crossing, The Fugitive, and Ordinary Joe, to name just a few. There's no knowledge of Natalie being involved in Scientology.
