Denise Richards’ husband Aaron Phypers has reportedly filed for divorce from the actor and former the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star this week after more than six years of marriage
Denise Richards is facing a divorce battle with her husband Aaron Phypers after he reportedly filed papers to end their six-year marriage.
The 54-year-old actress, who played Bond girl Christmas Jones in The World Is Not Enough, tied the knot with Aaron, 52, in 2018, but they are said to have recently separated.
Aaron has allegedly cited “irreconcilable differences” in his divorce filing, lodged in Los Angeles, and claimed the couple split on July 4. According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Aaron is seeking spousal support from Denise, claiming he has no income of his own.
He estimates his wife rakes in over $250,000 (£185,000) per month from various sources, including Only Fans, TV appearances, brand deals, and public events.
The documents also reveal the couple’s lavish spending habits, with an estimated $105,000 (£77,000) per month outlay, which Denise has been covering. This includes $20,000 (£15,000) on clothes and $15,000 (£11,000) on dining out.
The news comes just two months before the couple’s seventh wedding anniversary, reports the Mirror.
It’s been reported by People magazine, who claim to have seen court documents, that Aaron has filed a request to keep their assets and debts separate, including his power tools, motorcycle, and sports car.
Denise, known for her roles in films such as Wild Things (1998), was previously married to actor Charlie Sheen. Aaron was also previously married to Nicollette Sheridan, who starred in Desperate Housewives.
Denise shares her two eldest children, Sami, 21, and Lola, 20, with her ex-husband Charlie, and is also the mother of Eloise, 14, who she adopted after her divorce from the Two and a Half Men star.
Last year, Denise celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary on Instagram, posting: “Happy Anniversary babes! You’re my forever and I love you so much. Thank you for always having my back and being the most supportive husband.”
Aaron also marked the occasion, writing: “Happy anniversary to my sweetest love! Thanks for always being there my beautiful wife! Love you!”.
The couple have made TV appearances together, including on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, where Denise was a main cast member between 2019 and 2020, and has since made guest appearances. They have more recently appeared alongside her children on Denise Richards and Her Wild Things.
The reality TV show about the family premiered on Bravo earlier this year, with the first series, consisting of eight episodes, wrapping up in April.
