Aaron Phypers accuses Denise Richards of drug abuse and infidelity
The claims follow Richards' allegations of domestic abuse, for which she was recently granted a restraining order.
Phypers, 52, alleges Richards, 54, has been abusing Vicodin, Adderall, and alcohol for years — referring to Vicodin as 'Vitamin D' or 'white chestnuts.' He claims her substance use endangers their daughter Eloise and that he has witnessed her passing out from the alleged combination.
In the same letter, Phypers also accuses Richards of having an ongoing extramarital affair, stating he discovered explicit messages and broken promises. He says she physically assaulted him on July 4 — the day he filed for divorce — and that she smashed his phone to conceal evidence.
Phypers further alleges stalking via an AirTag, denial of access to belongings, and harassment of his elderly parents. Despite Richards' claims in court documents that Phypers abused her throughout their marriage — including slapping, choking, and verbal assaults — he denies all allegations, stating he never physically harmed her.
Sources close to Phypers claim Richards' bruised face photo was from a fall while intoxicated in 2022. Richards has not commented publicly on Phypers' latest claims.
The former couple, who appeared together on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, are now entangled in a bitter legal battle involving abuse accusations, drug use, and infidelity.

Slim Thug weighs in on Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion's romance after $300K gift reveal Slim Thug has stirred online debate after criticising NBA star Klay Thompson for accepting a $300,000 Audemars Piguet watch from girlfriend Megan Thee Stallion. The Houston rapper commented, 'I can't have no woman little-boying me,' following a viral clip where Thompson showed off the luxury timepiece, calling Megan 'a sweet lady.' The unexpected relationship between the Dallas Mavericks guard and the outspoken rapper has made headlines since they went public. Public displays of affection, gift exchanges, and viral videos have become routine, with Megan confirming their growing bond. Speaking to Page Six at her recent gala, she said, 'I have never dated somebody so kind… he makes me genuinely happy.' Slim Thug's remarks have drawn attention due to his prior interest in Megan. Back in April, he went live on social media suggesting she had a crush on him. However, during her Coachella set, Megan made it clear there was no romantic interest, stating, 'And, no, Slim Thug, this don't mean I want you. I just like your music, babe.' Fans now view Slim Thug's latest comments as a bitter response to being publicly rejected, with many accusing him of taking aim at Klay Thompson out of frustration.

Aaron Phypers accuses Denise Richards of affair with Rudy Reyes as divorce turns ugly
Aaron Phypers has publicly accused his estranged wife, actress Denise Richards, of having a six-month affair with Special Forces: World's Toughest Challenge instructor Rudy Reyes. As per Page Six, Phypers, 49, shared the explosive allegation in an open letter, stating that he confronted Richards about the affair earlier this year after discovering explicit messages and evidence on her phone. Phypers claims he first learned of the alleged affair in April, when he reportedly found over 100 sexts exchanged between Richards, 54, and Reyes, 53. He described discovering the messages as a painful experience, particularly as they included photos, videos, and details about their alleged meetings. Phypers mentioned that Richards initially denied the affair, claiming it was nothing and that she only loved him. Despite her assurances, he said more lies and additional evidence emerged, deepening his heartbreak. Phypers, who stated that he and Richards were open about each other's phone passwords, further claimed that Richards continued the relationship with Reyes even after promising to stop. He said that she began meeting him again in May, and he uncovered more signs of infidelity during the Fourth of July weekend. According to Phypers, Richards was arranging secret meetings with Reyes under the pretext of work trips, even flying him to private hotels. In the wake of these allegations, Phypers filed for divorce and requested spousal support. Richards, in response, filed for a temporary restraining order against him, accusing Phypers of physical abuse, a claim he vehemently denies. The dispute has taken a darker turn, with Phypers also accusing Richards of struggling with a Vicodin addiction, which he claims she combines with alcohol. He further alleged that her behavior, including neglecting their pets and their frequent moves, contributed to the strain on their relationship.

Marvel's Fantastic Four sets up major future threat with mysterious new character
In Fantastic Four: First Steps, Marvel Studios explores the early dynamics of the Richards family while laying groundwork for broader MCU developments. The film marks the live-action debut of Franklin Richards, the son of Reed Richards and Sue Storm, and suggests his importance will expand far beyond a supporting role. Franklin is portrayed not just as a newborn, but as a figure with immense, latent power. Early plot points show cosmic signals and planetary disturbances that seem to be connected to his arrival. A key sequence features Galactus offering Earth a reprieve in exchange for Franklin, hinting at the child's potential significance to cosmic balance. Later in the film, a climactic event reveals Franklin's extraordinary ability to manipulate reality, as he intervenes in a high-stakes moment involving his family. Though still a child, his actions affect the fate of major characters, establishing him as more than symbolic. The film's mid-credits scene introduces a mysterious encounter between Franklin and a shadowed figure, later implied to be Doctor Doom, teasing narrative threads that may lead into upcoming MCU installments. Without overstating Franklin's future, Fantastic Four: First Steps positions him as a character of interest in the MCU's evolving cosmic storyline.
