Phypers and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star tied the knot in September 2018; they do not share any minor children together.
As per a Page Six report, Phypers had previously begun the process of adopting Richards' youngest daughter, Eloise Joni, whom she adopted in 2011 as a single mother. Richards is also the mother to two adult daughters: Sami (21) and Lola (20) from her previous marriage to actor Charlie Sheen.
Aaron Phypers seeks spousal support, an equal split of their ENT business
Phypers, who reportedly owns a healing centre in Malibu, is requesting spousal support from Richards. In court filings, according to Page Six and TMZ, he estimated she brings in over $250,000 a month from different sources, including OnlyFans, television appearances and brand endorsements. He also claimed to have no income at present.
The Page Six report added that the documents offered a glimpse into the couple's lavish lifestyle. Phypers, according to the divorce papers, claimed their monthly expenses total a staggering $105,000, with $20,000 spent on clothes, $18,000 on rent, $15,000 each on entertainment and dining out, $10,000 on groceries and $8,000 on utilities. He alleged that Richards had been covering these costs throughout their relationship.
Apart from spousal support, Phypers is also seeking an equal split of their entertainment business: Smoke & Mirrors Entertainment. Additionally, he requested the court confirm that certain personal property belongs solely to him, including power tools, a 2018 Indian Dark Horse motorcycle, and a Ford Shelby GT500.
The couple publicly celebrated their sixth anniversary
Richards, 53, has not publicly commented on the divorce filing. The actor and reality TV star, who was recently seen filming a new Bravo reality series, Denise Richards & Her Wild Things, has reportedly downsized to a rental apartment in Los Angeles due to financial strain.
She and Phypers last publicly celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary in September 2023, with Aaron calling Denise his 'sweetest love.'
This will be the second divorce for both Richards and Phypers, who were previously married to Charlie Sheen and Nicollette Sheridan, respectively.
