About \u201cI Was a Child Bride: The Courtney Stodden Story\u201d<\/p>\n

Part of Lifetime\u2019s \u201cRipped From the Headlines\u201d series, a collection of films based on real people, \u201cI Was a Child Bride: The Courtney Stodden Story\u201d follows the life of a 16-year-old starlet whose marriage as a minor was viciously dissected in the tabloids. <\/p>\n

Narrated by Stodden herself, and told from her perspective, the biopic explores what led her to walk down the aisle toward 51-year-old actor Doug Hutchison \u2014 having been encouraged by her mother to pursue the entertainment spotlight \u2014 as well as the events that followed. This personal retelling highlights the ways in which Courtney was manipulated, exploited, and traumatized by both family and the media, offering her a chance to reclaim a controversial part of her life.<\/p>\n
