Phillips and Masterson have been married since 2011 and share a 9-year-old daughter together.

The actor was convicted in May of raping two women at his Los Angeles home between 2001 and 2003. A jury could not reach a decision on charges related to a longtime girlfriend.

Masterson stood accused of committing those acts while at the height of his TV fame, when he starred with Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis and more on That '70s Show from 1998 until 2006.

"Danny is an amazing father. Our daughter and I are heartbroken that he is not home with us. It has been very difficult without him here. Even though he is now in jail, he calls her every day. He helps her with homework every night," Phillips wrote.

"We need him more than you can imagine. I know he has been convicted of serious crimes. But the man I married has only been an extraordinary husband to me and a devoted father to our daughter."
