  • Aww.... No reality show for Courtney Stodden and Doug Hutchison

    Courtney Stodden fans will be crushed to learn that the 17-year-old minx’s reality TV show dreams have been derailed–at least temporarily.

    Stodden and husband Dough Hutchison, 51, reportedly turned down a spot on “Relationship Rehab,” a spinoff from “Celebrity Rehab” producer John Irwin.

    “Though Doug and Courtney considered the offer, in the end they felt that this wasn’t a perfect fit for the kind of show they wanted to do,” a source told RadarOnline.com. “There has been a lot of speculation about their marriage and a lot of people are just waiting for the inevitable ‘train wreck’ to happen, but Doug and Courtney have an incredibly strong relationship and seem very happy together.”

    The premise of “Relationship Rehab” is much like “Celebrity Rehab,” documenting couples living together in a group home in Los Angeles, getting counseled by “world renowned therapists” and participating in “therapeutic activities” and “planned events” over the course of eight episodes.

    RadarOnline.com’s source added, “Doing a show about going into ‘rehab’ just doesn’t make sense” for the happy couple.

    Stodden and Hutchison were reportedly offered between $150,000 and $200,000 for three weeks of work.

    “By turning down ‘Relationship Rehab,’ Doug and Courtney walked away from a nice chuck of change,” the source noted.

    But Stodden’s mother says the May-December couple will soldier on—with or without a reality show. “Doug and Courtney are faced with an array of career opportunities and offers each and every day,” Krista Stodden told RadarOnline.com. “I’m impressed by their ability to stay true to their convictions and stand behind any decision to respectfully pass on projects that they may feel are not completely right for them.”
