I wonder if there was a Scientology agreement she made to stay until now. It seems strange that Phillips would go through the humiliation of standing by her man through this whole thing just to file for divorce as soon as he was convicted.

You probably get a much more favorable ruling once your spouse has been sentenced and convinced of multiple rape charges.

It could just be to protect her career (or her attempt to restart her career).
Casting someone who's married to and continually supporting a man who was sentenced to 30 years for raping multiple women turns off a lot of people.

She was originally cast as Penny Lane, but it became apparent quickly that she couldn't act, so Kate Hudson was elevated from sister Anita to Penny Lane, Zoe Deschanel was cast as the new Anita and Bijou gets one scene at the top of the ramp at the San Diego Sports Arena.

^ Almost Famous is literally the only movie I know she was in and I couldn’t remember her having any lines. I just thought she was like “Groupie #3” or something.

I do find it funny that Bijou is with the other Band Aids in San Diego, and they all convince William to come with them across America, but somehow Bijou never appears again. Sure she could just be hanging with a different group but she just vanishes.

The point is that she isn't famous enough on her own or as DM's wife for her personal life to be an issue. I'm watching something on Prime right now and there are 3 actors on the screen I don't know from anywhere, so they could be cannibals IRL and it wouldn't matter.
