Denise Richards & Husband Aaron Phypers Are Getting a Divorce After 6-Year Marriage

Aaron Phypers took legal steps to end his marriage to Denise Richards after they had been together for several years. Reports indicate that the couple, who married in 2018, have recently decided to separate. Phypers now seeks spousal support and asks to retain certain personal belongings.

Denise Richards’ husband Aaron Phypers files for divorce

Aaron Phypers has filed for divorce from actor and reality TV personality Denise Richards after six years of marriage. Court documents filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on July 7, 2025, cite “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split. Phypers listed July 4 as the date of separation.

The couple began dating in June 2017 after meeting at Phypers’ healing center in Malibu, where Richards was receiving treatment for “preventative DNA repair.” They married in a private ceremony in Malibu in September 2018, shortly after Phypers finalized his divorce from Nicollette Sheridan. Richards, 54, and Phypers, 52, do not have children together, although Richards previously stated he was in the process of adopting her youngest daughter, Eloise, now 14.

According to documents reviewed by the Los Angeles Times and PEOPLE, Phypers is requesting spousal support. He claims he has not earned any income since closing his business last year and alleges that Richards earns more than $250,000 per month through TV projects, brand partnerships, and OnlyFans. Phypers also asks the court to divide their assets and debts as separate property, listing his power tools, motorcycle, and sports car.

Richards was previously married to Charlie Sheen from 2002 to 2006. They share two daughters, Sami and Lola. She adopted her third daughter, Eloise, in 2011.

Neither Richards nor her representatives have commented on the divorce filing. In a March 2025 episode of her Peacock series Denise Richards & Her Wild Things, Richards said in a confessional, “I’m never getting divorced again. Even if we hate each other, I’m not gonna f— get divorced.” Phypers added, “We’ll just have different homes or something. But we’re not gonna hate each other.”
