Ashton Kutcher Does First Sit-Down Interview With His Twin Brother 

It would be so easy to be jaded about your twin brother being a huge celebrity, and on top of that, you being born with health challenges. But this man is living life and grateful for it, and now helping others. What a total legend and inspiration!!! What an exceptional person.

I can't believe that I never knew that Ashton even had a twin until now! 😅

As someone with disabilities, this really helped out. Just the “I’m just grateful to be alive everyday”, is a big statement.

He's always so tactile with his brother. His love for him is palpable and so absolutely beautiful

Twins who are physically different are more emotionally and psychologically similar. These two try to learn from every negative experience and find a way to help others who are going through the same. Amazing men.

Michael sounds like a kind man. He doesn't want any fame, but wants to use any recognition to help others. ❤️

My brothers(twins) were the same. One is a pro skateboarder, the other sadly died before he turned 14. He had severe cerebral palsy, but the biggest smile and so much heart. He still watches over me I can feel it

You can tell they're related. Both have an empathy, love and caring that is rare in this world. Hats off to their family ❤️

I knew about his twin and that he had a "condition" but didn't know what it was, i could tell that Ashton really cared and loved his brother very much, and it made him more human and likeable in my eyes. I'm glad they share that bond and that they're willing to help others going through the same struggles together.

Michael should have a podcast. I was so tuned in to his speaking. I’m sure he has so much wisdom to share.

The things Ashton does to make him so humble. He’s an amazing actor, has a charity against s3x trafficking, an amazing husband and father and brother, cheers to him.

I knew he had a twin. He always spoke of him and that he had a condition. You could see that he cares and loves him alot and his over protective of his brother

Ashton I am 82 and I have a Twin Brother and I listened to You and your twin brother on TV. I cried . I have been in a WC due to a accident fall Paralyzed in walking. My twin Brother was here to help me In anyway he could. God Bless you you’re wife and family for all the support you Gave to your brother. I loved 70 show I watched it All those years. I am happy you married that beautiful Women.You both are great Artist. God Bless. Sandra from Lebanon , OhiO😊

As a mother of twins, I get emotional seeing their bond. There is a special closeness with twins and it's an incredible blessing having a best friend to go throughout life with

I had the privilege to meet Michael at a conference for caregivers sweetest person ever and so inspirational. As a person with special needs he gave me hope!

I knew Ashton had a twin but I never know he had a disability. Goes to show us that even celebrity's have lives out side of acting. God bless you three. Much love Chris, Michael and Mila. ❤

I just lost my twin and this interview just reminded me of our bond. He will live in my heart forever.😢

I've always thought Ashton was down 2 earth,always, this has probably always kept him humble, knowing how much his twin has went through. 2 very strong brothers🙏🏾🙏🏿🙏🏽

Ashton Kutcher does so much good in the world. He does so much more then what people realize. His foundation Thorn alone has helped SO SO SO many!

I remember a really long time ago when he came out about his twin brother, he talked about how he contemplated taking his own life in order to save his brothers. He's been one of my favorite actors since.. he's so under rated and he really cares and puts his efforts in the work he does!

Michael seems so lovely, I am so happy that Ashton also seems to be as great as we all thought he was.

Michael is an amazing guy!! My son has CP and Michael spoke at my works event and made my son feel special! Michael life story is nothing short of miraculous and he is an excellent rep for CP! Thank you Michael for all you do! ❤️

I love that Ashton helped his brother realize he should want to share his story with others ❤️

One of my dearest friends in school had cerebal palsy, and he was such a trooper! It wasn't until a few years ago that he almost died because he had water in his lungs, and he cannot cough it up like someone who doesn't have cerebal palsy. Fortunately, he didn't die but he was in the hospital for a two weeks afterwards, he is such a kind soul, and so smart too! Everyone just adored him, we're not in school anymore, but he's still one of my greatest friends, and I wish him every bit of happiness in this world!

The deep love Ashton has for his brother is just so beautiful ❤

Awwww. I happened to know their father he trained me when I worked for an airline who also has a speech impendemant...they come from a wonderful family & he always spoke on how proud he is of both his boys.💜

What a beautiful story to be grateful for… A strong bond of true brotherhood and friendship. ❤

I just love the relationship he has with his twin. ❤❤❤

Bravo for his bravery. We need a great person to bring awareness to CP and we couldn’t ask for anyone kinder than Michael. What a beautiful and much needed story. God bless the brothers and all that support them.

What a wholesome dude, Michael is going to help so many people. Glad his brother supports him so much.

Please keep sharing more to bring awareness to CP. My grandson was born with CP and find that so many people assume that he has a severe intellectual disability when his intellectual abilities are normal. Not enough people understand this and it hurts when people misunderstand you.

How sweet to acknowledge his brothers accomplishments, while keeping it focused on his struggle he had for a short time. Hollywood bravery and courage only a actor can project. I would rather listen to a real person's struggle.

I can’t find the words… how invited to realness and intimacy of people to witness that moment of the brothers clasping hands and the heartfelt emotions… ❤

They are all a great example of what a family and partnership should be. Always love hearing about them. Blessings family

His brother is a strong man God bless him for telling his story its going to help alot of people who struggle with this illness🙏🏽❤.

Could you imagine? What a champion Michael is. I know so many people with perfect health and glamorous lives that all they do is complain and feel sorry for themselves. You gotta have gratitude. Michael is a perfect example.

As a fellow human regardless of celebrity status, I respect both brothers for coming forward with their stories and am blessed by it!

His brother is a legend. Very inspiring

Ashton thinks the world of his brother and was proud to tell his story, I'm glad Michael came around and understood the assignment. I appreciate people who share their stories so the rest of us can be educated properly.

😳 omG.. Mr. A, I’m a Mom of identical twins, they are 30. One of my precious boys has Autism. To see the LOVE you have for your brother, brings a Mom like me, and maybe your Mom too, of true sense of joy to see her 2 amazing Sons together. Your brother will find his way, God has a plan for great things for you both, just as he does for my angles. 🌬 💕 Bless you both on your journey 🥰

I was Facebook friends with Michael a while back (we both are Cerebral Palsy advocates). He is a kind and awesome person.

It is evident that these brothers were raised right. They seem grounded and realistic about life. They are a testament to they small town, Midwest upbringing and the good job their parents did.

Being a twin is the most intense lesson in learning about yourself through another person. This is beautiful. God Bless all of us born with a wombmate.

This is beautiful, Ashton has always spoken so fondly about his brother ❤️ they both do..love seeing siblings just adore n love up on eachother.

Glad we get to know Michael...what an intelligent thoughtful man he is. His ability to support his brother's success yet see clearly how it impacted his own talents as a positive force. I was very intrigued as to their relationship and how each has inspired the other. I look forward to hearing more from Michael and hope to see their show.

Fun Fact : Ashton Kutcher went to school to be a doctor at U of I, but was more interested in Biochemical Engineering (creating medicine) partly due to his brother. He became a model as a dare between friends, but left college for his modeling career, and his alcohol use. It's good to see he's keeping true to his word to his brother in the end.

Glad he is supportive of his brother. He always seemed like a genuine sweet guy.

What a loving and supportive family. We'd all be so lucky to have family support as we go through pain and death struggles.

I too am a Twin and Twins REALLY do have a special bond and connection. To hear him speak of wanting to know HIS life purpose is THE first step of knowing why God created you. Way to go the both of you. THANKFUL that you both are still on the Earth. #KeepSpreadingGodLove

What a great person

I’ve been waiting twenty years for this. I’m so glad to see them opening up about their bond ❤

He's probably the strongest person closest to him that his brother knows. After having all the ease of being "the normal one" and experiencing his own health issues, why wouldn't he be reflective on his brother's struggles and indifference to his own condition? That's respect. That's human. Very admirable. Ashton Kutcher has come a long way since getting married and portraying Steve Jobs

These folks know what life is about and How To Live thru the journey together. Love these 3

Michael is such an inspiration. The transplant stuff gets me every time. I am a volunteer for the Iowa Donor Network and love giving speeches about the donor network and our experience. My husband received a kidney and pancreas transplant in 2019 and I'm just so thankful for everyone who chooses that end of life decision

Wow Mila must really be his rock❤❤❤ She is 100% right🙏🏻🙏🏻

That there is still a stigma in society toward anyone with a disability says everything about the lack of humanity that exists in the world. I witness this daily and it tears me apart. Thank you for sharing this heartfelt story .

The fact that they are able to keep some aspects of their lives private is awesome. Also I commend the entire family for a the the struggles they have overcome. The twin with CP you sir are a hero. I battle severe depression, anxiety and PTSD and it doesn’t compare, I have trouble making it through each day. My only wish would be to be surrounded by love like the love you all have, maybe then it wouldn’t be so bad. But when your alone 24/7 and no one want you anyway sorry you have a wonderful family great support system and I wish you nothing but the best

Blessings to him, and his brother.🥰💞❤

I've also have mild cerebral palsy and I can relate to what Michael Kutcher says. It wasn't until I was in my mid-30's, when I was able to begin to speak comfortably about my CP.

This is so heart warming. I wish you all well. Keep strong.

Ashton has such a good heart and his brother seems like such a beautiful soul!

They’re both amazing human beings

Such an uplifting segment. All around.

This man gives people hope! he is doing great! Thank you for opening up and giving people hope!

Finding purpose through the pain and struggle - that's one of the best things you can do. Good for him 💛

As an outsider it's heartwarming to see the closeness between these siblings. Not everyone has such a strong family bond. It's wonderful to see MIla and Aston stay strong in view of his health scare. It could've turned into a life long debilitating struggle. Reminds me of Michael J. Fox and his wife, Tracy they obviously took their vows, in sickness and in health to heart .Compare that against other married celebs who dump their spouses at the drop of a hat or trade in their old wives for younger models. Getting a divorce is effortless for some, like changing soiled underwear. J Lo, Kimho & West, The Bradys, Holmes and Robach, Fergie and Josh, many other examples. Since they live their lives in the public spectrum they're fair game for ridicule.

Maaannnn who raised these twins ??? Such a beautiful family I swear . Ashton is always helping ppl and now I’m introduced to his brother that’s the same way !! I just love it . Then on top of the fact Ashton and Mia is still going strong after the 70s show …..UGH love that for them

Boy, so many people have more than their share of pain and suffering. Love seeing how much they love each other! ❤️🙏

🤗Such a Touching, Heartfelt story .. I never knew Ashton was a twin .. Glad his brother forgave him and glad they have that close bond 🥰

Me and my twin have same story . I was born with bad heart and about to get my fourth heart transplant at 22 . My sister was born normal . We are inseparable we do everything together ❤I also was give 1 year at birth and my last transplant I flatlined and saw heaven . Edit : I just saw the comments ty all for the love and support. I understand that people would get triggered for something I can’t control. I accept people have different religious views and don’t believe me. Im a psychic for living . After my near death experience at 11 I developed a understanding and knowing for this world I purposely came down here. When I flatlined I went back to the Creator. Everything was white pure light I was just my soul. I was ascending for what felt like minutes. Then god telepathically told me it’s not my time and I’m needed here . I got knocked back into my body at light force and woke up in a coma 3 days later on the Ventilator. So heaven from my experience is going back into light . My souls original state of being .

I love the love and bond between them.

Kudos to a Michael for using his platform and to all my amazing friends with CP.

Ashton has just always seemed so down to earth and awesome I'd like to sense of humor his intensity and it is vulnerability shine through all that but he seems like a genuine person and that is so awesome about his brother. Peace and love to you all and how amazing his brother forgave him and not only survived two near death moments, but wants to use the experience to do good! I just I love those two and I'm so thankful his brother is just amazing to me and I'm crying writing this thank God for love and the world thank you for being great examples and posting this♥💯♥💯♥💯

What?? He has a twin?! I never knew that until now! Wow!

BOTH brothers are amazing individuals

I love his strength 💪🏾 thank you Micheal for being strong, I am inspired.

Man this man is so humble he deserves every good that goes his way

My brother also has cerebral palsy and I commend them for speaking out and bringing more awareness. There’s a lot of guilt in having a sibling with a disability and a lot of heartache as it’s not easy especially as a child to watch your brother go through so much pain. Hopefully they can use their platform to raise money for more research on how to prevent and treat cp.

This is so heartwarming and heartbreaking. They'll pull through all this, they have a lot of love 💕 for each other.

This brought tears to my eyes ❤

Someone or two..raised amazing sons! In awe of both of them. 💛

Michael is such an amazing guy! And I adore Mila's and Ashton's charity work. ❤️

I didn't even know Ashton had a twin!! Wth!! That's so Awesome!!❤️

Sometimes a hero is born from reluctance. A reluctance to not just talk about one’s own health issues, but also a reluctance towards being a figure others will look up to. He may have been reluctant and even upset at first, but his openness surely will inspire and touch the hearts of others who have been affected by the disease. Good on both of the brothers Kutcher on being champions for this and other causes. 🙌🏼

This is awesome. Look forward to watching!

Ashton Kutcher is one of the greats 🙏

Is anyone else ALSO shocked that Ash's first name is CHRIS? He looks way more like an Ashton lol

I love them both! I'm so happy to have come across this video! Wow!

He is a strong man, always sending love his way. Such a strong family.

I didn’t know AK had a twin. MK sounds like such a strong and interesting man!! We need to see more of him.❤️🙏

I had no idea he even had a twin brother my thoughts and prayers are with the family

Chris and Mike lived right down the road from us growing up. Mike hung out with my oldest daughter. He was such a comedian! He had us rolling all the time. He has such a wonderful out look in life. They are 2 beautiful people. As for their mom she did a great job raising these 2 fine young men!

Such a great interview!

his brother is so inspiring

I first heard about Michael a few years ago when I was looking for powerful guest speakers for our HR conference and I was looking for sample keynotes that they had delivered in the past. I was really taken away by his charisma on stage and his depth and genuineness. Unfortunately, we couldn't hire his services because the company opted to spend most of the budget on another keynote speaker so we didn't have enough left in the budget I am still looking forward to having him present for our audience.

Awesome young man… thank you Michael and Chris!!

My best friend since 4th grade has cerebral palsy and I love her for her power through attitude, I feel blessed for her to be my friend

No idea he was a twin! That’s so cool! Wow this is an amazing backstory.

For me personally, they are a powerhouse together and powerful as individuals. Hopefully they will be together for life.

Ashton is blessed. He's a good guy and handsome, Demi was beautiful, Mila is freaking gorgeous, and his twin brother loves him even though they have painfully different abilities. In life, he's gotten double what most ppl could hope for.
